Editorial Remarks
Hubert L. L. Busard, Menso Folkerts · Birkhäuser Basel eBooks · 1992
To reconstruct the original Latin text as well as possible, we took the wording of the best manuscripts, C and P , as the base for our text, comparing it with all other manuscripts. Angle brackets in the text indicate editorial additions. To make the text easier to read, we have occasionally inserted round brackets ( ) as part of the normal punctuation. References to Euclid consist either of the book number in Roman numerals and the proposition number in Arabic numerals divided by a period or of the book number in Roman numerals and the line number in Arabic numerals divided by a comma. So I.46 means book I, proposition 46, and I,46 book I, line 46. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
