Gods and Heroes; or, The Kingdom of Jupiter
Transcriber’s Note
The first instance of some proper nouns includes one or more accented characters to indicate pronunciation, although subsequent occurrences of the same proper noun have no accents. These are all preserved as printed.
The original book included some instances of characters with an up tack above. As the up tack above character is not available, this e-book instead uses a grave above, e.g. à, è, ì, ò, ù, etc., as no grave accents were used in the original.
The Pronouncing Vocabulary of Proper Names at the end of the book contains an extensive range of accented characters. These include:
characters with macron above, Ā, ā, Ē, ē, Ī, ī, ō, ū, ȳ, Ǣ, ǣ, œ̄, Œ̅ characters with breve above, Ă, ă, Ĕ, ĕ, Ĭ, ĭ, Ŏ, ŏ, ŭ, y̆, Œ̆, Æ̆, æ̆ characters with inverted breve below, a̯, e̯, o̯ characters with dot above, Ȧ, ȧ, ġ characters with tilde above, Ẽ, ẽ, ĩ, ỹ upper and lower case a with diaresis below, A̤, a̤ upper and lower case æ with grave above, Æ̀ and æ̀ upper and lower case c with midline, Ꞓ and ꞓ lower case n with line below, ṉ upper and lower case œ with grave above, Œ̀ and œ̀ s with up tack below, s̝ lower case u with dot below, ụ y with grave above, ỳ
If these characters do not display correctly, you may wish to adjust your font, browser or reader settings. If this is not possible, you may wish to refer to an alternative format of this e-book for the Pronouncing Vocabulary.
