The thought of Thucydides is complex, and this is often reflected in his prose style. Accordingly, students coming to Thucydides for the first time require the guidance of a commentary suited to their needs. The strength of Cameron’s commentary, as the title indicates, lies in his explication of grammatical issues.

Many of the key emergent issues of Anglo-American debate--such as theories of versions--are already familiar in German theory. In other respects, including systematic reflection on the design and function of editorial apparatus, the German debate has already produced paradigms and procedures as yet unformulated in English.Contemporary German Editorial Theory makes available for the first time in English ten major essays by seven German theorists, together with an original
