Corpus coverage

This page records what the reader includes and what remains to be added. The inventory covers the B references in Diels–Kranz and the unlettered sections of chapters 89–90. Reading pages include only entries with a translation published before 1950 whose source and reuse status have been checked. A testimonia and C imitations are not yet included.

Available translations

English is shown first where available, followed by German, French, Italian and Spanish. You can choose between the translations offered for each entry. Entries with several languages appear in more than one count below.

  • 916 English
  • 293 German
  • 35 French
  • 87 Italian
  • 12 Spanish

The 1,234 included references correspond to 1,233 passages because Empedocles B77–78 share a passage. There are 1,344 translation choices, and 95 entries offer more than one language. 13 English and 2 non-English translations shown by default are partial. Each is marked in the reader.

A translation counts here when it covers the identified quotation, though the surrounding ancient source may contain untranslated material. The notes record these boundaries, textual variants and questions of authorship. The separate Diels 1922 selection contains 82 translated source passages. These overlap the reading edition and are not additional fragments.

Fragments awaiting translation

We have not yet found and verified a reusable translation published before 1950 for these references. That does not mean no translation exists. Some entries preserve only a title, a lexical fragment or an editorial reference.

Further historical sources may fill these gaps. New translations prepared for the project may also be added, with named translators and editorial review. Until then, these references remain outside the reading pages.
