Translations employed.
I have chosen to use available translations for the material in this thesis because a good literary rendering would necessarily be interpretive and tendentious. A word-by-word, not and idea-by-idea translation conveys a better sense of what's there. I have listed the translator's name in a footnote appended to each citation: where none appears the translation is my own. Where the passage has been modified the abbreviation “mod.” appears beside the translator’s name.
