Notes and references for classical Greek and Latin works can look a little different than many readers and writers are used to. The citation will often just have the name of the author, or the author and the title. Instead of a traditional page number, the book, section, or line may be used so that readers looking at different editions can still find the reference. See the Chicago Manual of Style Rules 14.242-14.247.
Examples:
1. Ovid, Amores 1.7.27.
2. Aristotle, Metaphysics 3.2.996b5–8; Plato, Republic 360e–361b.
3. Thucydides 8.44.4.
To reference a specific translation:
1. Epictetus, Dissertationes, ed. Heinrich Schenkl (Stuttgart: Teubner, 1916).
2. Herodotus, The History, trans. David Grene (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1987).
On occasions, you may encounter problems opening PDFs. The reason for this to happen is most likely due to the time out error. This could be due to a slow internet connection or a large download size. Many times, articles with images contained in them will time out the download.
To resolve this, right click on the link "Proceed to PDF" and select "Save Target As..." (or "Save Link as..." for Firefox). This will allow you to save the PDF to your computer and should allow for a faster, more successful download.
