Abstract
We show that first-quantized-style Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin operators, such as those which occur in string field theory, are just those of the Batalin-Vilkovisky method, up to some minor modifications. Thus, string field theory can be quantized directly, without fields additional to the original one.Keywords
