Does the Logos edition of Montanari, Franco. The Brill Dictionary of Ancient Greek. Leiden; Boston: Brill, 2015. Not have page numbers?? How can that be?
Looks like you're right.
The recently shipped Greek Etymology Dictionary, and Greek Linguistics Encyclopedia both have pages numbers (and volume, where multiple). I wonder if the difference is in the publisher's digital file provided.
Is there something we can do for Logos to fix that? It's sort of a bummer since it cannot be properly cited and, hence, used in academic writing.
Good question. Staff often don't appear, even for bugs.
I'm guessing, it's not intensional per se.
I have 23 greek lexicons and such. The semantic don't have pages numbers. Nor Rick's Analytic. But the rest do. Even the old ones that Logos dug up (eg Attic, Sophicles), pocket lexicons (!), other analytic, and of course the major academic (LS, BDAG, TDNT, TLNT, etc).
It's sort of a bummer since it cannot be properly cited and, hence, used in academic writing.
I don't think that's true (especially for such a work!) in its absolute phrasing. I understand that many style guides have explicit guidance for how to cite electronic works - up to the point that citing eBooks and Logos editions as if you had seen the paper copy may not acceptable. Other than that, many citations from works in the dictionary/lexicon genre would refer to the entry you consulted, not necessarily the page (or "column" as was often used back in the pre-electronic past over here when I did academic work).
IIRC Brill deliberately maintains a digital corpus for Montanari to allow updates. Hence, the Logos version is an analogue of that corpus.
To cite, you may have to dive into how e-works are referred to in your style guide. My down and dirty trick: s.v. (short for sub voce) could be a useful pointer.
