註釋
This study aims both to demonstrate the unlikelihood that Josephus wrote 4 Maccabees or De Universo and to reveal the basic stylistic uniformity of Josephus' works. While various historical and literary concerns are evaluated, the central tool employed in this study is stylometry, a statistical method for quantifying stylistic features of a literary composition. One suggestion is that if Josephus did use certain sources for portions of his works, he has changed them so much stylistically that it is impossible to discern them. Finally, this book seeks to establish a simple stylometric method which may be used for other studies of disputed authorship.
