Kempf, which was published in 1888. Kempf based his apparatus on the two oldest manuscripts known to him, \plain\fs24\i1 Berne Burgerbibliothek 366 (A) \plain\fs24 and \plain\fs24\i1 Florence Med. Laur. Ashburnham 1899 (L) \plain\fs24 . It is now clear, however, that account must also be taken of the next oldest manuscript, \plain\fs24\i1 Brussels Biblioth\'e8que Royale 5336 (G) \plain\fs24 .\par\pard\s1\sa100\sb100\li0\plain\fs24 Correcting and building on the material collected by Kempf in his edition of 1854, Briscoe includes testimonia in the form of passages from other authors which refer to the matters discussed by Valerius, while his \plain\fs24\i1 index nominum\plain\fs24 makes use of prosopographical research to correct and amplify Kempf's 1888 index.\par\pard\s1\sa100\sb100\li0\plain\fs24\b1 Note:\plain\fs24 If you are uncertain whether or not this is the volume you are seeking, you can always take a look at the {\field{\*\fldinst HYPERLINK "http://www.press.umich.edu/covers/teubner/T1916.gif"}{\fldrslt\pard\s1\sa100\sb100\li0\plain\fs24\cs16\cf1\ul title page}}\plain\fs24\plain\fs24 .\par\pard}
