VERNON ARNOLD, Litt.D. PROFESSOR OF LATIN IN THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF NORTH WALES AND FORMERLY FELLOW OF TRINI

This book is the outcome of a course of lectures delivered by me in successive years to Latin Honours students in accordance with the regulations of the University of Wales. It is therefore primarily intended for the assistance of classical students; but it may perhaps appeal in its present form to a somewhat wider circle. At the time that the book was begun the best systematic exposition of the Stoic philosophy available for English readers was to be found in Prof. E. Zeller’s Stoics Epicureans

In the text the accentuation of Greek words should be corrected as follows: P. 117 , l. 10, χρεῖαι. P. 239 , l. 6, μέρων. P. 423 , l. 16, ἀγάπη. (Transcriber’s Note: These have been corrected.) For the quotations in the notes from Greek writers, more precise references will usually be found in the sections named of von Arnim’s Stoicorum veterum fragmenta . In addition the following amplifications or corrections are needed: P. 105 , n. 44; Clem. Strom. ii 21, 129. P. 133 , n. 38; Nem. nat. hom. v
