内容説明

This book offers an introduction for beginners to the processes by which Greek and Latin literature have been preserved. This new edition aims to respond to the urgent need to take account of the very large number of discoveries in this rapidly advancing field of knowledge by revising or enlarging certain sections of the book. A note on how to interpret the information given in an "apparatus criticus" is also included. The book should be of interest to students and scholars of Greek and Latin literature and those involved in the study of textual transmission.
