End-Note 1 - As an example: instead of Agamemnon, son of Atreus, the patronymic form would be Agamemnon Atreides.
End-Note 2 - The names of the Nereids listed by Robert Fagles are not translated literally; for example: whereas the other three translations use the name Dynamene, Fagles calls her Power; also, the other three translations list 33 Nereids and Fagles only lists 31.
End-Note 3 - This entry appears to be a typo on the part of the translator or the publisher.
