ESSAYS FROM 'THE GUARDIAN'
NOTES BY THE E-TEXT EDITOR:
Reliability: Although I have done my best to ensure that the text you
read is error-free in comparison with an exact reprint of the
standard edition--Macmillan's 1910 Library Edition--please exercise
scholarly caution in using it. It is not intended as a substitute
for the printed original but rather as a searchable supplement. My
e-texts may prove convenient substitutes for hard-to-get works in a
course where both instructor and students accept the possibility of
some imperfections in the text, but if you are writing a scholarly
article, dissertation, or book, you should use the standard hard-copy
editions of any works you cite.
Pagination and Paragraphing: To avoid an unwieldy electronic copy, I
have transferred original pagination to brackets. A bracketed
numeral such as [22] indicates that the material immediately
following the number marks the beginning of the relevant page. I
have preserved paragraph structure except for first-line indentation.
Hyphenation: I have not preserved original hyphenation since an e-
text does not require line-end or page-end hyphenation.
Greek typeface: For this full-text edition, I have transliterated
Pater's Greek quotations.
