Plato's Phaedo

M. Cope E.

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. AS this translation of the Phaedo has not had the benefit of its author's last corrections, it is proper that I should state the main rules which I have endeavoured to follow in preparing it for the press. It would appear that Mr Cope had subjected his version (which was, I presume, originally in tended for use in the lecture-room) to more than one careful revision, and had decided in all cases of doubt which interpretation he preferred. In such cases I have regarded his decision as final. On the other hand he had not made his choice between the various alternative renderings which he had from time to time recorded. In the work of selection, which has consequently rested with me, my rule has been to prefer the latest render ing; but I have considered all the renderings suggested in the manuscript, and have now and then taken one of the earlier ones.
