Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Acharnians
N preparing this edition of the Ac/zarm'ans I have been indebted throughout to the valuable and exhaustive cntlcal notes and commentary of Dr Blaydes. I have also constantly consulted the editions of Elmsley, Miiller, and Ribbeck as well as those of Mr Green, Dr Merry, and the late Professor Paley. Some good hints are due to Mitchell, and many valuable notes to the late Mr Neil's monumental edition of the iglxts. In addition to these I have had before me the notes on the earlier half of the play, left by the late Mr W. G. Clark, and published in the journal of Pfiilology, Nos. Xvx - xvm (1879 these notes are marked C. I em besides under special obligation to Dr J. E. Sandys for writing Pt. 11 of the Introduction; one of many instances of kindness and generous help from my old friend and colleague which I gratefully.
