The Greek geographer and historian Strabo is known chiefly for this
remarkable description of the known world in the early decades of
the Roman Empire. The range and importance of the text ensured its
copying and distribution in the medieval period, and multiple
printed editions appeared later. Reissued here is the version
published by the influential French publishing house Didot in 1853
as part of their series of Greek classics. It was prepared by the
German classical scholars Karl Wilhelm Ludwig Muller (1813-94) and
Johann Friedrich Dubner (1802-67). Muller's two-volume collection
of the writings of lesser-known Greek geographers, Geographi Graeci
Minores (1855-61), is also reissued in this series. The full text
of Strabo's seventeen books is presented here in Greek with a
parallel Latin translation as well as variant readings. Also
included are several maps and a substantial index of names and
places.
