ThevolumewasconceivedbyWolfgangHaase,ProfessorofClassicalStudiesat Boston University, who set its intellectual and geographic limits, issued the vast majorityoftheinvitationstocontribute,establishedthestyle-sheetandbasicformat- tingstandards,anddidpreliminaryeditorialworkonanumberofindividualpieces. WhenHaasewasforcedtowithdrawfromtheprojectforreasonsofillhealthatthe end of 2012, I took over as general editor. My time and energy has been devoted primarily to line-editing material already in hand, making further organizing and formatting decisions and applying them throughout, and shepherding the project throughthepress.Iwouldliketoexpressmygratitudetotheindividualauthorsfor consistentlyandcheerfullymeetingthemanydeadlinessettheminthecourseofthis process. I would also like to thank Michiel Klein Swormink, De Gruyter’s Editorial DirectorfortheHumanities(NorthAmerica),andourprojecteditorEmilyHough,for theirassistanceinbringingthevolumeintoprint.
