This companion to the Penguin translation by S.A. Handford of Sallust's account of the conspiracy of Catiline provides a useful introduction, notes on details of the translated text, a select bibliography, glossary, and list of ancient authors referred to in the book.

This companion to the Penguin translation of Plutarch's Life of Pericles is divided into three parts. The introduction covers Pericles' life, writings and method of work; the biographical genre; and the portrayal of Pericles by earlier writers. There follows a commentary on the translation, and finally there is a series of useful endnotes on such topics as the treatment of Pericles by Attic comic poets; the historicity of the Peace of Callias and the Congress Decree; and the fortunes of members of Pericles' family.

A companion to the new Penguin translation. Text in Ancient (Classical) Greek and English.
