β¦ Synopsis
I am surprised at my own boldnessβtemerity might be a better wordβin embarking on the compilation of this collection of notes, and even more so at the results. I had long been aware of the defects in the famous Lexicon of LiddellβScott-Jones, but I did not expect that my efforts to improve the treatment of a few words would lead me to propose new interpretations of many passages. Some of these suggestions will inevitably be rejected and may even be disproved, but I believe the method which underlies them is still valid. It is time to stop worshipping this ancient monument and to replace it with more modern structures.
