The references are to pages. The terms are also included alphabetically in the General Index, and may be explored in the indexes of the Cope and Sandys Aristotle, the Wilkins Cicero, the Rhys Roberts Dionysius, and the other editions cited in the bibliographical notes at the head of each section.
The plan is generally that of Quintilian (see pages 63-66).
The Greek terms of drama and epic may be found in the General Index and, through the tabular view of Aristotle’s Poetic on pages 135-139, in the Greek index of Bywater’s edition.
