Morley, however, has left the quotations he has assembled to speak for themselves. Collections of primary sources regularly include introductory discussions that aid the readers in their interpretations. Morley offers no preface, and occasionally this leads to problems. Morley identifies the quote as the title of J.R. Patterson's 1987 article in the Papers of the British School at Rome, but for those unfamiliar with this piece, this information alone is not sufficient to interpret the statement. Morley does not define his categories for the reader.
Similar problems exist elsewhere.
Though one can imagine good reasons for these editorial decisions, Morley offers no guidance. Ancient history teachers will be familiar enough with most of the works so that this will not present an insurmountable problem.
