This is an external link template to the books of Flavius Josephus on the Project on Ancient Cultural Engagement (PACE) website. The site contains works and resources on Josephus from Brill Publishers, and is edited by Professor Steve Mason. Included are the ancient Greek texts, William Whiston's public-domain English translations, and new English translations by Mason and others.
The template currently links to the parallel English-English interface, Brill's on the left and Whiston's on the right. The Brill translations always present prominently, and the site defaults to the paragraph numbers by Niese, but it is possible to browse by Whiston's.
