SYNOPSIS OF ENTRIES

This overview is arranged along thematic and conceptual lines, divided into three sections: 1) Text (the physical work and its reception); 2) Context (historical, intellectual, social, and cultural background); 3) Histories (its internal features as a literary work). The synopsis is necessarily schematic; the treatment offered in many entries will range well beyond the label they receive here.

The Synopsis does not contain the vast majority of the proper names found in the Histories (individuals, places, topographical features, tribes), all of which receive their own headword.

Major Categories (in bold and ALL CAPS) and Subcategories (ALL CAPS) receive their own entry unless they are bracketed.
