Towards a Text of Cicero 'Ad Atticum'

by D.R. Shackleton Bailey

Like Dr Shackleton Bailey's Propertiana, this book gives a series of difficult or corrupt passages with his discussion of the difficulty and suggestions for emendation. Dr Shackleton Bailey also prepared a text of Ad Atticum IX–XVI, which appeared in the series of Oxford Classical texts and this volume is intended as preparatory to that text. This is one of the Transactions of the Cambridge Philological Society.
