Excerpt from Outlines of the History of Greek Philosophy
Of the following pages, the first part, down to the words 'practical life' on p. 90, is the work of the late Miss Alleyne, whose manuscripts were entrusted to me. For the remainder, and for the revision of the whole, I am responsible.
Miss Alleyne began her series of translations of Zeller's 'History of Philosophy' with the 'Plato and the Older Academy,' published in 1876 in conjunction with Prof. Goodwin, of University College, London. This was followed in 1881 by the two volumes of 'The Pre-Socratic Philosophy,' and in 1883 by 'The Eclectics.' It was also her intention, when the present work was ended, to translate the last volume of the 'History.' But in the prime of life, and in the full vigour of her powers, she died, after a month's illness, August 16, 1884.
The excellence of her work has received universal recognition. It was a labour of love.
