Book Description
Excerpt from Selection From the Remains of Theocritus, Bion, and Moschus, With Glossary and Prolegomena In editing this selection of Theocritus, Bion, and Moschus, an effort has been made to keep in view, as well the reputation of the authors, as the interests of the studious reader. For both these purposes it seemed convenient to distribute the apparatus of information which should accompany the text, into three parts, namely, into the Annotations, the Critical Commentary, and the Glossary. For, as an author is responsible only for what he actually wrote, and not for what "time has blurred," or what others have supposed he may have written; and as he is also entitled to take for granted that his readers are acquainted with the language and dialect in which he writes: it is dealing but fairly with his memory, to preserve the perusal of his conceptions as free as possible from the adventitious obscurity which a cloud of conjectures casts wherever it rests, and also from the associations of that inevitable labour which attends, and, indeed, forms part of the value of philological research.
