Open book pages
Opens one or more pages of a book in full, with the footnotes and a citation.
Technical nameopen_
Returns the full text of the pages you ask for, as in the book, with the footnotes kept apart, and a citation for each page: the book, the author and year of death, the editor, publisher and edition, the volume, the page and its link on the site. Footnotes are the edition editor's, not the author's words.
