Old version of Arrian or Curtius

Post by susan »

Does anyone have,or know of, a copy of Arrian or Curtius that was translated about 100 years ago? I'm looking for a version that is outside copyright so that I can use it in a database.Susan

Hi Pela
Yes, that would be ideal. I've been making a web-based database of Alexander sources ; so far I've got Plutarch, Justin, Diodorus and various less important sources - but Arrian's Anabasis is not yet online, and copyright laws apply to the newer Penguin version so I can't scan it in. I should have it ready in the next month, and I'll post a link on Pothos.I'll send you my address by e-mail.Best RegardsSusan
