Editor's Note:

Because of the text's length and complexity I have rearranged the parts of the revised French editon as follows:

  1. I have divided the two volume French edition into four volulmes - two of the text and two of the very numerous and lengthy footnotes/endnotes - and created a fifth volume which contains all the tables and supplementary material which had been scattered across the two published volumes
  2. since each section is clearly numbered I have not attempted to insert the original page numbers as is my usual practice.
  3. given the number of the footnotes/endnotes I have not made them reverse linkable. My suggestion is to have the text file open in one window and the notes file open in another window, and read them side-by-side. The numbering of the foot/end notes is based upon the numbered section to which they relate (e.g. § 1394-4 is the fourth footnote in section 1394).
  4. equations, graphs ("figures"), and quotes in Greek have been inserted in the text as images.
