Acknowledgements
A number of outstanding students in Baylor University’s Honors College contributed to this volume, aiding in transcription, translation, and research on source material. Particular recognition is due to Zerek Dodson, Jackson Perry, and Erin Russo, whose work won undergraduate research and scholarly achievement grants.
Other student researchers include: Rachel Butcher, Randolph Davidson, Amy Freeman, Cynthia Liu, Joseph Lloyd, Kara Kopchinski, Gabriel Pederson, Megan Renz, Erika Smith, Marcie Smith, Jesse Watters, and David Welch. It has been a joy to collaborate with such a talented group of young scholars–and more than scholars, friends: ecce ego et tu, et spero quod tertius christus inter nos sit.
Independent reader Nicole Eddy’s eagle eye, generous spirit, and rapier wit were instrumental in the completion of the volume. All errors remaining are my own.
