| Summary: | The project for this edition of the Vita Constantini was begun by Charles Pietri, and taken up after his death in 1991 by Luce Pietri. The original translator of the text, Marie-Joseph Rondeau, made available her work, needing only editorial adjustments; it is accurate, and reads like good French, not a wooden translation. It is the first French version published since 1675. The Greek text is Winkelmann's GCS of 1975. In nine places, listed on p. 143, the editor has departed from Winkelmann, invariably preferring the reading of the manuscripts to the alterations made by past editors. There is a full and rich introduction, in which historical and literary questions are handled with excellent competence. |
