Locate without oversimplifying
Living authors, science, popular culture, and modern readings of ancient traditions enter the corpus with their own status. Contemporary context is never silently attributed to historical voices.
A translation or material witness date never replaces probable composition. Pages mark dates that are missing or disputed.
