From the Editor, PRF Brown:
"The work concerns the life of the philosopher-sage Apollonius of
Tyana, as recorded by his 'disciple' Damis, who followed him in his
journeys across the ancient world.
One truly wonders why this work has not received the attention that it
deserves, and the reasons for this are partly covered by the introduction
which was prepared by the translator FC Conybeare in about 1912. This
article by Conybeare also provides the historical context concerning the
matter of the resource materials available to Philostratus, who put
together the original work over one hundred years after Apllonius
lived..."

Antonietta Aquili
The history, mostly far, is always present among us.
Indeed, it is inside us. Certainly, depending on these few lines, is a
pity of presumption, acquiting the task to describe a period that
comprehends two thousand years. Writing much is equally a pity, so the
better way is to feel however proud if, by FACOCCHIO’S
TABLES we succeeded to provoke the curiosity for prosecuting alone to
voyage through the huge history of Rome.
