This volume brings together thirteen of my essays on ancient epistemology, along
with a new, synoptic introduction. The earliest of the essays was published in
2000; the latest were still unpublished when I submitted this volume to the Press.
They are all reprinted here with minor changes. For example, there are occasional
slight variations in content. Some references have been corrected; and sometimes
transliterations are used where the originally-published version used Greek. For
various reasons, some material that was originally in the text is now in footnotes;
hence the footnote numbers in the essays as they appear here are sometimes
different from those in the essays as they originally appeared. The essays as they
were originally published differ in style, usually because the venues that published
them had different house styles. In this volume, some changes have been made so
as achieve more uniformity of style.
In the Introduction, I discuss some of the essays’ main themes and indicate howthe essays fit together. I also occasionally criticize what I say in one or another
essay; and sometimes I discuss literature that the essays discuss only very briefly or
not at all. However, I have not done either of these things systematically or in
detail. Nor does the Introduction defend my views in detail. It provides an
overview; details are reserved for the essays that follow.
The chapters that follow record various debts. But I should also like to record afew particular acknowledgments here: to Peter Momtchiloff and Henry Clarke,
both of Oxford University Press, for help and encouragement at various stages; to
Peter Osorio for compiling the list of references and the index locorum; and, as
always, I owe more to Terry Irwin than I can say.
The essays printed here were originally published as follows below. They appearhere with the kind permission of the relevant publishers and/or editors.
