Stobeaus is a mess, and while I have spent time deciphering pomeroy's Stoic Ethics Greek text, absolutely no offence directed at him cause I know it is a mess, the damn thing doesn't always make sense in English, and learning the Greek can be a

I'm really looking forward to this text. I liked Fortenbaugh's collection of Theophrastus. I'm guessing thus was the obvious, natural build from that effort. Currently only one book that I know of is out on Arius Didymus' Peripatetic Ethics.
I'm sure he saw me quoting the Stoic ethics, calling Cezar a little worthless

I'm really looking forward to this, and intend to be one of the first to have it. Comes out this summer. I'm obviously a big fan of his Stoic Ethics, so like ummm....
****, this is big.
