Excerpt from Aristotle's Constitution of Athens: A Revised Text With an Introduction, Critical and Explanatory Notes, Testimonia and Indices
The Testimonia, printed immediately below the critical notes, con tain further evidence on the text, in the form of quotations in Greek Lexicographers, Scholiasts, and others. Many, but by no means all, of these, had already been recorded in the various editions of the Frag ments. In the present volume, a good deal of pains has been spent on the endeavour to trace in the Scholiasts, and in authors such as Ari stides, tacit quotations or paraphrases of our text, which had hitherto escaped detection owing to their source having been unacknowledged. In the case of these quotations, it has been thought best not to remain content with giving references alone, but (as a general rule) to print the passages in full. It is only thus that their exact value in rela tion to the text can be readily seen.
