Footnote Issues

In these notes, "anchor" means the reference to a footnote, and "footnote" means the information to which the anchor refers. Anchors occur within the main text, while footnotes are grouped in sequence at the end of this eBook. The structure of the original book required two exceptions to this, as explained below.

The original text used a combination of footnotes (indicated by symbols) and endnotes (indicated by numbers). In this eBook, they have been combined into a single, ascending sequence based on the sequence in which the footnotes occurred in the original book, and placed at the end of the eBook. Several irregularities are explained below.

Footnotes sometimes were printed in a different sequence than their anchors (as on page [60]: third and fourth footnotes were printed in incorrect sequence). and the symbols used for the anchors sometimes were in a different sequence than the footnotes (as on page [72], second and third symbols). Except as noted below, all footnotes have been resequenced to match the sequence of their anchors.

Page [85]: The last footnote is printed out of sequence and followed by a paragraph that appears to be a final comment. In this eBook, that footnote has been repositioned to be in the sequence of its anchor.

Pages [111] and [118]: Anchor [134] (originally 29) originally referred to two footnotes. In this eBook, they are footnotes [134] and [134a].

Pages [186] and [192]: section "PLATO TEACHES THREE SPHERES OF EXISTENCE.242" (originally 47) used an out-of-sequence endnote number that matched the last endnote in the chapter; that endnote has been repositioned to be in the overall footnote sequence.

Page 196: Footnote [267] (originally 5) has no anchor; the missing anchor would be on page [193] or [194].

Page 242: Footnote [322] (originally 6) has no anchor; the missing anchor would be on page [235].
