Travis Bauer asks about a list of the authors cited in TLG. There is a
standard volume for this, published by Oxford University Press. Title:
        _Thesaurus Linguae Graecae: Can of Greek Authors and Works_
by Luci Berkowitz and Karl A. Squitier, with technical assistance from
William A. Johnson. My copy is of the Third Edition, 1990.
It catalogs more than 9,400 individual works, nearly 3,200 authors.
The Third is the latest edition. Current price is $39.95; but if you place an order directly before the ed of January, you can get it for $32.00 (plus
$3.50 shipping for first book -- $1.00 for additional titles or copies).
Phone 1-800-451-7556. Tell them you saw it on page 49 of their current
"Classical Studies" catalog. If you aren't on a faculty, don't tell the
operator; they will assume you are, since you get this catalog.
        Incidentally, Berkowitz and Squitier are at U. C. Irvine, home of
the TLG --she is Professor of Classics, he is Research Classicist and
the TLG --she is Professor of Classics, he is Research Classicist and
Historian.
        If you use the TLG seriously, you can't do without this book at your
side.
