PREFACE. In the present edition the text of Anton Westermann (Ausgewählte Reden des Demosthenes, Berlin, 1874) has been adopted, and I have also derived great advantage from his Notes. The Prolegomena and Commentary of F. A. Wolf have also been carefully studied, as well as the Variorum Notes in Dindorf's Edition. (Oxford, 1849.) Reiske's pages are inserted in the margin, as being generally recognised for purposes of quotation; and reference is invariably made to them in the Notes when passages are quoted from other portions of Demosthenes. |
