Being the final volume in the critical edition of Characteristicks, it contains Shaftesbury's footnotes as found in both the 1711 and the 1714 texts, together with his index to all six treatises. In addition to cross-referencing, the footnotes offer a considerable amount of explanatory or supplementary material; in many cases they enlarge on the train of thought pursued in the main text. The analytic index shows not only the headings and page references one would expect to find: closer inspection also reveals numerous entries which highlight concealed intratextual links and parallels - pointers towards a deeper understanding of the text. Dieser Band beschliesst die kritische Ausgabe der Characteristicks. Er enthalt die gedruckten Anmerkungen der ersten und zweiten Auflage und den Index des Autors zu dem gesamten Werk. Shaftesburys Fussnoten bieten Querverweise und zusatzliche Erlauterungen. In vielen Fallen fuhren sie den Gedankengang des Haupttextes fort. Der Index zeigt, uber die ublichen Stichworter und Seitenangaben hinaus, versteckte Verbindungslinien auf, die ein tieferes Verstandnis der Texte ermoglichen.
