Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Library of Photius, Vol. 1
The present translator, in the endeavour to obtain as satis factory a rendering as possible, has constantly consulted the most important literary, theological, and historical works and encyclopaedias bearing on the wide field covered by the exten sive reading of Photius. Naturally, there is little scope for elegance of translation, and in the literary criticisms it is by no means easy to find a correct and adequate English equivalent for the terms used.
