Where is the background on the text itself? What is known of the origin of the text? If the discourse was originally oral, when was it thought to have been conceived, what evidence is there of that conception, when was it reduced to writing, by who, and how many different versions are there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.118.189.31 (talk) 15:01, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The relation between the two works was not clear. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexisderoode (talk • contribs) 14:43, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
