It goes without saying that the authors and collaborators could not have produced a work of this kind without incurring debts of gratitude to a large number of persons and institutions. Roberto Radice wishes to thank Prof. G. Reale for having proposed the original project and for offering guidance and stimulation during all the phases of its preparation. He also thanks once again Prof. R. Stefanini of the University of Berkeley (California), who generously helped to collect part of the American contributions. A particular debt of gratitude is owed to Prof. V. Nikiprowetzky for the often extremely rare and valuable material which he provided. Fortunately he was able to see the completed work before his unexpected and untimely death in December 1983. He also wishes to record his gratitude to the staff of the Biblioteca Cantonale in Lugano and to the library and technical staff of the Catholic University of Milan, for their ever prompt and courteous assistance in the preparation of both editions of the work. Two sources of financial assistance are gratefully acknowledged. The work was partially supported by the "C.N.R., Centro di studio del pensiero antico". Both authors thank its director, Prof. G. Giannantoni, for giving permission for the original bibliography to be reissued in a revised form. A generous grant from the "Centro di Ricerche di Metafysica dell'Universita Cattolica del Sacro Cuore di Milano" enabled the original work to be translated from Italian into English. The authors cordially thank the director of the Centre, Prof. G. Reale, for making this subvention possible. David Runia received financial support during the preparation of the revised edition of the bibliography from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (N.W.O.). Much of the labour was carried out during his stay in 1986-87 at The Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, U.S.A. He would like to thank the Institute's Director for extending an invitation to him and allowing him to make full use of the splendid library facilities that the Institute provides. Other libraries he wishes to thank are the Speer Theological Library in Princeton, The Library of the Australian National University, Canberra, The Library of the Free University in Amsterdam, The Library of the University of Utrecht. X PHILO BIBLIOGRAPHY David Runia also wishes to record his gratitude to Prof. J. C. M. van Winden (Leiden), who encouraged the work from the first, and kindly proposed its inclusion in the series Supplements to Vigiliae Christianae. A vote of thanks is due to Prof. M. Stone (Jerusalem), who warmly supported the venture of adding material written in Hebrew to the work and intro­ duced him to a group of scholars who were willing to lend a hand. The team of four Israeli scholars under the leadership of Dr. David Satran were not looking for this task; it was imposed on them in addition to other onerous and more important duties. Their friendly and conscientious cooperation made a deep and lasting impression. He would also like to thank Dr. R. A. Bitter (Zeist) for giving most valuable assistance in the tracking down of Philonic material written in the Dutch language. His brother Drs. A. P. Runia (Groningen) offered to translate the original bibliography from Italian into English. Not only did he perform this burdensome task with admirable diligence, but he also offered valuable assistance in the task of correcting the proofs. Other scholars that Runia would wish to thank for various kinds of assistance are: Miss E. Birnbaum (Harvard), Prof. L. H Feldman (New York), Drs. P. Goedendorp (Groningen), Prof. E. Hilgert (Chicago), Dr. P. van der Horst (Utrecht), Prof. J. P. Kenney (Portland, Oregon), Prof. J. Mansfeld (Utrecht), Prof. A. Measson (St. Etienne), Prof. A. Mendelson (Hamilton, Canada), Prof. J. R. Royse (San Francisco), Prof. A. Terian (Berrien Springs, Michigan). He is also thankful to Mr. Julian Deahl of E. J. Brill (Leiden) for the assistance he readily gave in relation to the more technical aspects of the book's production. The team in Israel consisting of Dr. D. Satran (Jerusalem), Dr. N. G. Cohen (Haifa), Dr. M. Mach (Tel Aviv), Dr. D. R. Schwartz (Jerusalem), wish to express their thanks to Miss Holly Irene Smith and Mr. Oron Joffe, whose expertise and unfailing good humour made the production of a difficult bilingual text possible. Financial support for the work in Israel was generously provided by the Faculty of Humanities of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Last, but most certainly not least, the two authors wish to record their deep feelings of gratitude to their respective wives, Maria Luisa Parietti Radice and Maria Anna Allegonda Runia-Deenick, for years of support and companionship during the preparation of this study.

Brief observations on fifty years of Philonic scholarship 1. Genesis and aim of the bibliography In 1983 Roberto Radice published an annotated bibliography of Philonic scholarship under the title Filone di Alessandria: bibliografia generate 1937-1982. 1 On its appearance the work was critically acclaimed as a truly valuable instrument for all those who wish to consult and find their way through the extensive scholarly literature on the life, writings and thought of Philo of Alexandria. 2 In some quarters, however, it was felt that the fact that the work was written in Italian might restrict its circulation and usefulness to some degree. 3 The growing cultural imperialism of the English language in the world of scholarship is a force that has to be reckoned with. At the beginning of 1986 David Runia suggested to the author that the work be translated into English and brought up to date so that it would cover exactly half a century of Philonic studies, from 1937 to 1986. The suggestion was welcomed; the present volume is the result of a close cooperation between the two scholars. As Radice explains in his Introduction to the Italian edition, the year 1937 was deliberately chosen as starting-point. For in 1938 H. G. Goodhart and E. R. Goodenough published their well-known General Bibliography of Philo Judaeus, a virtually complete record of studies on Philo up to the year 1937. 4 Since the record for 1937-38 in Goodhart and Goodenough was naturally far uploads/s3/ vigchr-supp-008-roberto-radice-david-t-runia-philo-of-alexandria-an-annotated-bibliography-1937-1986-pdf.pdf
