Transcription
Moore is encouraging ‘a young man’ to republish the Geoponica. To this end, Moore is supplying him with the collations and manuscripts necessary, as well as Cornarius’ translation despite its faults. Other Greek authors are named, including Plato, Hippocrates, Epiphanius, and Didymus. Moore then discusses the need for a good transcriber. Moore was the Bishop of Ely (Peter Meadows, Moore, John (16461714), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/19126, accessed 25 June 2013])
