- PREFACE
-
-
-The present work was undertaken early in 1889, and is an attempt to
-describe in detail the products and working of the Oxford Press in its
-early days. Though eclipsed by the glories of the later University
-Press, the first period, included in this book, has a natural importance
-of its own. The Fifteenth and early Sixteenth Century presses[1] are
-necessarily of interest, and when printing became firmly established in
-1585 it began to reflect faithfully the current tendencies of thought
-and study in the University. Theology is predominant, animated on its
-controversial side with fierce opposition to the Church of Rome, but the
-quieter fields of classical work are well represented, and side by side
-is seen an increasing study of English literature. Of lighter books
-there are few, and of chapbooks perhaps only one (1603, no. 5).
-
-The most important works produced at Oxford between 1585 and 1640 were
-Richard de Bury’s Philobiblon (1599), Wycliff’s treatises (1608), capt.
-John Smith’s Map of Virginia (1612), Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy
-(1621, &c.), Field on the Church (1628, &c.), Sandys’ translations of
-Ovid’s Metamorphoses (1633), the University Statutes (1634), Chaucer’s
-Troilus and Cressida in English and Latin (1635), Chillingworth’s
-Religion of Protestants (1638), and Bacon’s Advancement and Proficience
-of Learning, in English (1640: see frontispiece). There are of course
-many books on logic, philosophy and the like, intended for the
-University curriculum, and many collections of the rhetorical poems by
-which the University was expected to condole or rejoice with every
-change in the royal estate. 180 pages of mechanical grief at Elizabeth’s
-death in 1603 are at once followed by 200 pages of equally mechanical
-congratulations to James I: and the metrical tears dropped in turn on
-the grave of the latter monarch in March 1625, are in May succeeded with
-indecorous haste by songs of joy on the marriage of his successor. Some
-volumes of English poems and plays occur, by Skelton, Nicholas Breton,
-Churchyard, Fitz-Geffrey, Randolph, Cartwright, Fletcher, and others,
-and a few still lighter pieces, such as a Masque at Richmond, partly in
-Wiltshire dialect, and “Bushell’s Rock,” both in 1636. There are traces
-of the study of Spanish, French and Welsh, as well as of Latin and
-Greek; and an attempt to introduce phonetic writing and spelling was
-made by Charles Butler in 1633 and 1634. Even theological disputes are
-lightened by the solemn account of certain Jesuits in the East, who
-dressed up a carcase as that of a queen recently deceased, obtained much
-glory from the miracles it wrought, until the real corpse arrived and
-the priests vacated the vicinity (1633, Gregorius). There is something
-surprising in Oxford being chosen as the printing-place of a book to
-persuade mothers to nurse their own children (1622, Clinton); and an
-episcopal alchemist is not often to be met with in real life (1621,
-Thornborough). It is less to be wondered at that a college which had
-leased land to Queen Elizabeth for a quiet five thousand years, should
-try to be relieved of its agreement within fifty (1623, Oxford).
-
-There is no need of a general history of the University Press at this
-time, as distinguished from the annals which the Appendixes of this work
-present. The printers were privileged members of the University, and
-occasionally printed “cum privilegio,” but there is little to invest
-their personal proceedings with importance. Though it is true that money
-was advanced in 1585 by the Earl of Leicester, Chancellor of the
-University, to set up Joseph Barnes with a new press, and that the
-charter of privileges in 1632 gave the University direct control of the
-printing, there are as yet few signs of actual academical patronage or
-interference, and the failures and successes of the printers and
-publishers, which can be traced in detail in Appendixes C and F, are the
-ordinary fluctuations of trade. Nor can the Oxford press at this time
-claim much connexion with the greater world of the English Court or
-Church. After it was placed on a permanent footing by the Earl of
-Leicester, its one great patron and protector within our period was
-Archbishop Laud, who occupied a similar position to that of Bishop Fell
-at a later period in the same century.
-
-The year 1640 has been chosen as the inferior limit of this
-bibliography, partly because both the British Museum Catalogue of early
-English books and Arber’s Transcript of the Registers of the Stationers’
-Company stop at that point, partly because the interest in the products
-of the press as such was found to be rapidly diminishing, and partly in
-consequence of the break-up of all quiet progress during the convulsions
-of the Rebellion, combined with the dismal prospect of that trackless
-wilderness—the literature of the Civil War.
-
-The present bibliography presents, it is believed, four features of
-novelty:—the better representation of the titlepage by the use of Roman
-and Italic capitals as well as ordinary type; the mention of the chief
-type used in each book; the furnishing of the first words of certain
-pages, to facilitate the identification of imperfect copies; and the
-insertion of actual pages[2] of books printed at Oxford, selected from
-works which are cheap and common. These points are explained and
-discussed in a paper on ©Method in Bibliography©, printed at pp. 91–106
-of vol. 1 of the Transactions of the Bibliographical Society (1893), to
-which the reader is referred, if he wishes to see a fuller account of
-the whole aim and method of the present book.
-
-The best thanks of the writer are due for general help to Mr. E. Gordon
-Duff, Librarian of the John Rylands (late Spencer) Library at
-Manchester, to Mr. F. J. H. Jenkinson, Librarian of the Cambridge
-University Library, and to Mr. W. H. Allnutt of the Bodleian: but
-especially to the Delegates of the Clarendon Press both for undertaking
-on liberal terms a work which can scarcely prove remunerative, and for
-enabling the Oxford Historical Society to supply copies to its members,
-as vol. xxix, at a price far below its actual cost[3]. Mr. Horace Hart,
-the Controller of the Press, has taken a warm personal interest in the
-printing, and any merits of form which may be found are due to his
-experience and to the co-operation of his compositors. Nothing, however,
-can relieve the writer of responsibility for the errors and shortcomings
-which will be detected; and he can only plead that it is better to bring
-out an imperfect book, if it is a useful one and the result of hard
-work, than, by straining after an unattainable completeness, to delay
-indefinitely its publication.

-
-
- MINOR POINTS.
-
- _Dates._ The books classed under a given year, such as 1615, are
- necessarily such as were issued between 25 March 1615 and 24 March
- 1616, since no means exist for dividing them according to the
- historical year. In recording a date between Jan. 1 and March 24, the
- form used is invariably the double one, such as 23 Feb. 1615/6, by
- which is implied what we understand by 23 Feb. 1616.
-
- _Numbers of books._ Some notes on the number of books printed at
- Oxford will be found on p. 291, and of books printed or published at
- Oxford on p. 292, among the Notanda.
-
- _References._ The usual style of reference throughout the book
- (including index) is to the _year_ followed by the _initial letter_ of
- the particular heading; as 1634 C, when the reference is to no. 9 on
- p. 177 (Cosin). A few references will be found in the earlier pages to
- years beyond 1640, made before it was decided to close the work at
- that year.
-
- _Titles._ The heading usually presents the author’s name in the form
- by which he is generally known to posterity, as “James ii, king,”
- although at the time of the book referred to he was prince James.

- PLAN OF THE BIBLIOGRAPHY
-
-
- 15th and early 16th century.
-
-The books of these periods are in some respects exceptionally treated,
-but the general plan is similar to that of the later press. Pages 1–7
-(printed off in 1889) must be taken in close connexion with Appendixes A
-and B, which correct and supplement those pages in important points.
-
-
- 1585–1640.
-
-1. After the heading (which in all cases is the author or a body
-representing the author, if known; otherwise the catch-title) comes the
-title, reproduced faithfully so far as was possible with the employment
-of four types. A fifth minute type indicates letters represented by
-contractions in the original. The occurrence of a “motto” (whether a
-text or quotation), a device (see p. 289) or woodcuts (see p. 290) is
-noted in square brackets. A * before the heading implies “undated”: a †
-“no place of printing mentioned.”
-
-2. Next follows the technical description, comprising:—
-
- _a._ The number of the imprint (see pp. 292–310: it would have been
- better to add the names of the printer and publisher to the bare
- reference).
-
- _b._ The date.
-
- _c._ The apparent size of a page of an ordinary uncut copy, according
- to the scale,
-
- _for narrow sizes_ _for broad sizes_
- in. in.
- 12–18 folio 12–18 large 4^o
- 9–12 large 8^o 9–12 4^o
- 7–9 8^o 7–9 small 4^o
- 6–7 12^o 6–7 square 12^o
- 5–6 16^o &c.
- 4–5 24^o
-
- The number of leaves in a section (quire or gathering) precedes,
- within round brackets, when different from what is suggested by the
- apparent size: as “(eights) small 4^o.” When it has been desirable to
- indicate further the way in which the original sheets of paper have
- been folded, the words _single_, _double_, or _treble_ (for once,
- twice, or thrice folded) are used on p. 238.
-
- _d._ The number of pages of a perfect copy, in square brackets when
- there is no printed pagination, as “pp. [16] + 121 + [9].” When
- printed pagination does not occur in the book at all, the signatures
- are also given.
-
- _e._ The first words of the 11th page, and of later ones in the case
- of a large work, always in italics.
-
- _f._ The common type of the body of the work, followed by the terms
- Roman, Italic, or English (i. e. Black-letter): see pp. 291–2.
-
- _g._ The contents. _Every page not mentioned is blank_, without
- exception.
-
-3. Notes on the book. A reference to Wood’s ©Athenæ© and ©Fasti
-Oxonienses©, as edited by Bliss (1813–20), has been considered as
-superseding in most instances any biographical account of the author.
-And the limitation of the present work to a bibliography of a press, not
-of books connected with the University, has been borne in mind.

-A small sheet of paper printed on the ice-bound Thames at London 18 Jan.
-1716 ascribes to Oxford the first printing in England, in the year 1459.
-Most of the information on the sheet is derived from Atkyns’s ©Original
-and Growth of Printing© (Lond. 1664).
-
-
- 1461.
-
-Printing was “practised in Oxford in 1461,” according to Randle Holmes’s

-In Herbert’s Ames, iii. 1393 we read:—“In the late Tho. Osborne’s
-catalogue of books for sale in June 1756, No. 1345 ‘Plinii Secundi
-Epistolarum, Liber primus. Exemplar elegans, literis initial. colorat.
-corio turcico, fol. deaur. lineis rubris & auro elegans ornat. 15l. 15s.
-Oxon. apud F. Corsellis. 1469.’ To which is added this note, ‘Hocce
-unicum est exemplar notum, a variis allegatum, et vix uni visum adeo ut
-Phoenix librorum dici mereratur [_sic_], certe primus est ex libris a
-Corcellis impressis, cui nomen suum adjunxerit, secundus vero ordine
-omnium quos unquam ille impressit, priorem scilicet scimus fuisse,
-Jeronymi Expositionem in Symbol. Apostol. Oxoniae 1468. Anno 1470, varia
-idem typographus impressit Opuscula, addito in fine nomine, sed nec
-unicum eorum reperitur hodie integrum. Possident quidam amatores
-fragmenta aliqua poematum Latinorum, ut Gerardi Lystrii Rhenensis, &c.
-Carmen Listrii lividorum hominum venenosas linguas, &c.’ This raised the
-curiosity of the book collectors, who considered this article as a
-confirmation of what R. Atkins had asserted about printing at Oxford.
-They all flocked to Osborne’s shop, who instead of the book, produced a
-letter from a man at Amsterdam, filled with frivolous excuses for not
-sending them to him. They were disappointed, and looked on the whole as
-a HVM; however the Plinii Epistolæ, and Ger. Listrii Oratio, &c.
-afterwards appeared at an auction at Amsterdam, and were bought for the
-late Dr. Ant. Askew; and were sold again at an auction of his books, by
-Baker and Leigh, in Feb. 1775. Lot 2064, and 2622, to which articles are
-annexed, viz. to Lot 2064, ‘Ad finem hæc verba, _Impr. Oxon. apud F.
-Corsellis_, 1470, Manu recentiore exarata sunt.’ Also to lot 2622, ‘Hæc
-verba, _Imprim. Oxon. ap. Corsellis_, 1469, Manu recentiore exarata
-sunt.’ To those who are at all conversant in early printing, the dates
-will appear at first sight a bungling forgery.” So far Herbert’s Ames,
-cf. Bowyer and Nichols’s ©Origin of Printing©, 2nd ed. (Lond. 1776), p.
-171. The full entry of art. 2064 is “Listrii (Ger.) Oratio habita in
-Enarrationem Dionysii Halicarnassii; Dionysii Orbis expositio e Greco
-tralata Prisciano interprete; Ejusdem Carmen in venenosas Linguas

-In the Auction Catalogue of the Library of Dr. Abr. de Vries of Haarlem

-In the ©Monthly Miscellany, or Memoirs for the Curious© (June 1708), p.
-177 it is stated that in the Bishop of Ely’s Library (now at Cambridge)
-are books “of the first printing in England at Oxford in 1469.”
-
-
- 1480.
-
-“Guido de Columnia de historia Trojana, per T. R. (_Theodore Rood_).
-Quarto. 1480.” So Herbert’s Ames, p. 1393. The source of the error was
-discovered by Cotton to be a forgery in a copy of Guido sine anno et
-loco preserved in the Earl of Pembroke’s Library at Wilton (©Typ. Gaz.©,
-1st ser., 2nd ed., p. 209.)
-
-
- Before 1487.
-
-“Books from the Oxford Press.... 208*. The Chronicles of England. Folio.
-Lent by the Earl of Jersey.” So in the Catalogue of the Caxton
-Celebration, 1877, p. 28. Some error. The reference is no doubt to
-Caxton’s Chronicle of England, printed in 1482.
-
-
- 1489.
-
-When Cotton printed his ©Typographical Gazetteer©, 2nd series, (Oxf.
-1866) he believed that an Indulgence of 1489 (altered to 1499), in the
-Library of Trinity College, Dublin, was printed at Oxford. It is “a
-small broadside on vellum, consisting of 24 lines only, printed very
-closely and occupying a space of about nine inches by six.” The
-Indulgence is from Johannes de Gigliis alias de Liliis Apostolicus
-Subdiaconus, granted by Pope Innocent iii: and is dated 1499, there
-being no name of place or date of printing. There is no doubt that
-Cotton was mistaken in attributing this piece to the Oxford press.
-
-
- 1498.

-1. Bagford, in his inaccurate way, gives the title of an edition of the
-Greek text of the Ethics of Aristotle by Aretinus “Oxon. 1498” (Brit.
-Mus. MS. Harl. 5901, fol. 3). He mentions the 1479 edition of the Latin
-text separately, but the former date can only be due to some confusion
-with the latter.
-
-

-739, ex Bibl. Bodl. p. 117 (an allusion to an error in the Bodleian
-Catalogue of 1674, repeated in the 1738 Catalogue p. 206). Bagford makes
-the same mistake, twisting the author’s name into Johannes Buridanus
-(Brit. Mus. MS. Harl. 5901, fol. 3). Even Hain (no. 4142) has copied
-from Panzer. The colophon of 1518. B shows how the error arose, as
-Cotton points out (©Typ. Gaz.©, 1st ser., 2nd ed., p. 209).

-
- For the author &c. see Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.© ii. 169: where it is
- pointed out that the book has a curious history. Its ostensible
- purpose is to uphold the doctrine afterwards called “passive
- obedience” by refuting two books which were regarded as subversive of
- the Queen’s temporal power, (1) ©An apologie and true declaration of
- the institution ... of the tvvo English colleges ... in Rome ... (and)
- in Rhemes©, 1581 (ascribed to card. Will. Allen), (2) ©A true, sincere
- and modest defence of English catholiques that suffer for their
- faith©, n. d. (asserted by Antony à Wood to be also by card. Allen).
- But Wood declares that the Queen “conceiving it convenient for her
- worldly designs to take on her the protection of the Low-Countries
- against the King of Spain, did employ our author ... to write the said
- book” to _justify_ the Netherland revolt. And certain it is that in
- consequence of the temperance and fairness with which Bp. Bilson
- treats his subject, the parliamentary party in Charles I’s time used
- this book to _oppose_ “passive obedience.”

-
- The first book printed at the new Oxford press. The allusions to this
- and kindred facts are (1) in the “Epistola Nuncupatoria.” Case says of
- the reasons for dedicating the work to the Earl of Leicester “Unum est
- nouum hoc præli beneficium, quod te authore nostra Academia nuper
- recepit ... Prælum hoc nouum (cuius author existis) hunc nouum de
- moribus libellum pressit. Ne ergo author libelli præli authori
- videatur ingratus, tibi primùm eiusdem fructum ex animo propinauit
- ...” (2) the printer himself writes “Admirabilem hanc artem

- si characteres typographi sint vera insignia & arma Mineruæ; vbi
- terrarum potius floreret hæc nobilis scientia, quàm vbi vera publicè

- in nos meritis vobis vtriusque Academiæ patronis deuincti sumus,

- (3) the Vice-chancellor, J. Underhill, writes “Non dedit hoc seclo
- prælum Oxoniense priorem [librum] | Doctrinâque dabunt secula nulla
- parem.” (4) Laurence Humfrey says “Hoc Speculum vobis nunc Oxoniensis
- alumnus | Porrigit, en præli dat quoque primitias.”
-
- It is clear that neither the Vice-chancellor nor the printer of this
- volume had any suspicion that there had been printing in Oxford
- previous to the publication of the present volume, unless “recepit” be
- a vague allusion to it.
-
- The work is a companion one to the same author’s ©Summa veterum
- interpretum in universam dialecticam Aristotelis©, Lond., Tho.
- Vautrollerius, 1584, see 1592. C, 1598. C: and there is even a
- typographical connexion between the two.
-
- For an account of the author, see Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, i. 685. The
- method adopted by Case is by _quaestiones_, _oppositiones_ and
- _responsiones_ in the manner of the disputations in the schools at the
- time. Other editions were issued at Oxford in 1596, and at Frankfurt
- in 1589, 1610 and 1625. See 1596. C.

- of the new Oxford Press are the form of the date, which usually
- implies Jan. 1585/6, the assertion of Barnes that the Case was the
- first production, and the improbability that the Committee of
- Convocation appointed to consider “de libris imprimendis” on 23 Dec.
- 1584 would proceed to action so soon as 11 Jan. 1584/5. But the
- fitness of the earlier date is too obvious to be gainsaid. This piece

- treatise is an oblong sheet 5 × 11 in., folded, containing on one side
- in two divisions “A table ... of the treatise following”: on p. 140 is
- also a colophon.
-
- Of this book also there is a curious history. Gaspare Loarte, a
- Spanish Jesuit who spent most of his life at Rome, wrote an
- “Essercitio della vita christiana” some time before 1569. In 1570, J.
- Sancer, a friend of Robert Parsons the Jesuit, published a translation
- into English of one of the three parts of the work. In 1582 Parsons
- himself published “The firste booke of the Christian Exercise,
- appertayning to resolution” in two parts, which is practically a new
- work based on part of the original “Essercitio.” Loarte is mentioned
- in the preface, but the author only signs his name by the initials, R.
- P. This was again issued without Parsons’ knowledge in 1584.
-
- In 1585 (or according to Wood and Ames, copied by Herbert and Dibdin,
- in 1584) Edmund Bunny printed and published the first edition of an
- adaptation of Parsons’ book fitted for Protestant readers “at London,
- by N. Newton, for Iohn Wight,” 8^o. The dedication is to the archbp.
- of York and the preface dated 9 July 1584 at Bolton-Percy. The book
- was entered at Stationers’ Hall on 28 Aug. 1584. The Oxford edition
- before us is a reprint of this London edition with no intentional
- variation, except the omission of the arms of the archbishop of York
- on the _verso_ of the title of the London issue. Some of the woodcut
- ornaments and capitals of the two issues are identical.
-
- In “1585, Aug. 30” Parsons again put out his book in a revised and
- largely augmented form with a new title “A Christian Directorie” which
- when complete was to consist of three books, the first of which,
- treating of Resolution, is alone contained in this edition. The
- preface contains a criticism of the London issue of Bunny’s
- adaptation, which provoked “A briefe answer vnto those idle and
- friuolous quarrels of R. P. against the late edition of the
- Resolution: By Edmund Bunny.” Lond., 1589, 8^o.
-
- Other editions of Bunny’s adaptation of Parsons’ “Christian exercise”
- are 1586 (Lond., “by I. Iackson and Ed. Bollifant for John Wight,”
- 12^o; in Herbert’s possession), 1589 (Lond., 12^o: Bohn), 1594 (Lond.,
- 24^o: Bohn), 1609 (Lond., 12^o: Bohn), 1615 (Lond., 12^o). See also
- next art. Parsons’ own work was several times reprinted: and in 1591
- appeared an edition of his “Christian Directorie,” anonymously
- adapted, as the former work, for the use of Protestants, and with the
- deceptive title “The second part of the booke of Christian Exercise,
- appertayning to Resolution, or a Christian directorie ... written by
- the former authour R. P.” (Lond., 12^o). This was several times
- reprinted, as in 1592, 1594, 1598, 1615. See also Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©,

-
- “Primitiæ typographici nostri in græcis literis preli,” as the

- words occur in the first book printed at Cambridge (Cujusdam ...
- Christiani Epistola, 1521), and single words cut in wood still
- earlier. The six homilies are 1. Κατὰ τῶν παρατηρούντων τὰς νεομηνίας

- the writer’s name, Th. Pie: 1–219, the paraphrase, the text of

-
- This book is a translation into English of “Sapientissimi regis

- vocant, in Latinam linguam ab Antonio Corrano ... versa et ex eiusdem
- prælectionibus paraphrasi illustrata: accesserunt & notæ quædam”
- (Lond., 1579) with the omission of the notes. For Ant. de Corro see
- Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, i. 578: and for Thomas Pye, _ibid._ ii. 59. Wood
- was not acquainted with this earliest work of Pye, but alludes to the
- book (as above, i. 581) as Corro’s “Sermons on Ecclesiastes. Abridged
- by Thomas Pitt. Oxon 1585, oct., which is called by some Pitt’s
- Paraphrase on Ecclesiastes”! The name Pitt, but not the error of date,
- may be taken from Maunsell, who three times (i. 38, 81, 104) alludes
- to the book as by Tho. Pitt. Pye in his Epistle states with respect to
- the original Latin edition, “which treatise, as it came first to the
- print, myselfe by occasion being charged with som ouerseeing of the
- presse, at the earnest request aswel of the author himself, as of
- other many, I translated into English: being the rather a greate deale
- moued thereunto, because there was no comment or like exposition then
- extant in our vulgar tongue vpon this part of Scripture.” This latter
- statement is not strictly true, since “An exposition of Salomon’s
- booke called Ecclesiastes” was printed in London in 1573. In 1585
- Serranus’s commentary translated into English by T. Wilcocke was
- printed in London.

- A 1^r-D 8^r, the poem.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, i. 135. This work is an imaginary reply of
- Hippolytus to the temptations of Phaedra, in Ovidian elegiacs. The
- author, John Shepery, of Corpus Christi College (“Somatochristianus”),
- tells us in the preface that it was composed as a return for kindness
- shown him by one Guadus (Wade ?, whom the editor describes as a
- chaplain to Henry viii), but delayed for some years. Shepery died in
- 1542, aged 32 years. George Etheridge (“Edrychus”) was a pupil of
- Shepery, fellow of Corpus, and a Roman Catholic.
-
- The date is fixed at 1586 by two passages: Etheridge in his preface
- states that for about 53 years he had been a member of the University:
- he was admitted scholar of Corpus in Nov. 1534. Also Dr. Humphrey in
- his introduction to the ©Summa et synopsis© (see below) alludes to the
- ©Hippolytus© as “nuperrime impressum.” Wood places the date at about
- 1584, and the Bodleian catalogue of 1843 assigns the book to 1542,
- owing to the date of Shepery’s death, which happens to occur
- prominently at the end of Etheridge’s preface.

- B 1^r-C 3^v “Disticha Ioannis Sheprevi ...”: verso of leaf after C 3-D
- 6^r, “Disticha ... in Editione Erasmi Roterodami inserta.”
-
- The “Summa Ioannis Sheprevi” is a set of elegiac stanzas, each stanza
- describing the contents of a chapter in the New Testament, and
- beginning successively with the letters of the alphabet, written by
- John Shepery, of Corpus Christi College, Reader of the Hebrew Lecture
- from about 1537 to his death in 1542. The ©Summa© is stated by Wood to
- have been first published at Strasburg in about 1556 by John Parkhurst
- bp. of Norwich, next in Lond. 1560 (Wood), and from Humfrey’s ed. in
- “Gemma Fabri,” Lond. 1598, and “Biblii (or Bibliorum) summula,” Lond.
- 1621, etc. The first distich is “A priscis oritur Christus, turbatur
- Ioseph, | Angelus hunc retinet, virgo beata parit.” MS. C. C. C.
- (Oxf.) 266 contains these verses.
-
- The “Synopsis” is a similar set of elegiac stanzas, without the
- alphabetical succession of first letters, first inserted in the Latin
- editions of Erasmus’s New Testament, from that of 1542 on. The author
- appears to be unknown: the first distich is “Angelus in somnis iustum
- solatur Ioseph, | Prototoco Mariæ nomen Iesus erit.”
-
- In the preface Dr. Humfrey states that his object in editing the book
- was to recall young students to the study of the text of the Bible,
- and that he had collated a MS. copy of the ©Summa© with bp.
- Parkhurst’s edition, and had compared different editions of the
- ©Synopsis©: he alludes also to the Hippolytus of Shepery as “nuperrime
- impressum.”
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, i. 135, 560. Dr. Philip Bliss noted in his
- copy “Whoever wants to write a history of the Oxford press should
- first get together all the little vols printed by Jo. Barnes, of which
- this is one of the rarest.”

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 138. The best account of this work will
- be extracts from the Epistle dedicatory. John Harmar the translator
- was in this year Proctor, Regius professor of Greek and Fellow of New

- friends to emploie the time of this last vacation of mine from my
- publique readinges in the Vniuersitie, in the translating of Master
- Bezaes Sermons vpon the Canticle of Canticles, which I had a little
- before receaued from the Francfurt mart in French, into our vulgare
- and Mother tongue.” The patronage of Lord Dudley is acknowledged and
- details of the translator’s life are given, as that he attended Beza’s
- lectures and sermons at Geneva. The work translated was no doubt

- 1587: but there is no clue to the author.

- (B.A. 1586), who is conspicuous in the Marprelate controversy and who
- published ©An exhortation vnto the Gouernours and people of Wales, to

- alludes to Bodley’s design of “erecting and restoring of this worthie
- Panbiblion or Temple of all the Muses,” the Bodleian.
-
- The title is an elaborate engraving on metal, the words on an oval in

- either side Juno and Apollo (?): on either side the oval, the arms of
- the University and of New College: below, in the centre a bust of the
- translator surmounted by his arms, between figures derived from
- classical mythology. In the book are thirteen full-page engravings
- marked A-I, K-N, and a profusion of woodcut ornaments. On the last
- page but one occurs the large device of the University arms, within a
- border: then the colophon: then a woodcut of the arms of New College
- between two Ws (William of Wykeham). By some confusion this book is
- dated 1605 by Bagford (Brit. Mus. MS. Harl. 5901, fol. 66).

- chapters: (3–10) “Appendix de manuscriptis Oxoniensibus.”
-
- Rare. See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 466. This is the first English
- edition of the first book on the love of books. The _editio princeps_
- is that of 1473 printed at Cologne: the next Spires, 1483 and Paris
- 1500. An account of these editions and of the known MSS. of the
- ©Philobiblon© will be found in E. C. Thomas’s edition (Lond., 1888).
- The mysterious “_B. P. N._” on the titlepage (followed by “Non quæro
- quod mihi vtile est, sed quod multis”) is explained by him as perhaps
- “Bibliothecae Praefectus Novae” or “Nostrae” or rather “Bono Publico
- Natus:” it has been suggested that they may stand for “Beati Pauli
- Norma,” alluding to 1 Cor. x. 33. The Editor explains that it was
- intended that the work should be followed by an Appendix containing a
- catalogue of all MSS. at Oxford, a purpose which seriously delayed the
- issue of the book. In fact the whole of the text of the ©Philobiblon©
- was printed off in 1598, as is proved by a single copy still preserved
- in the Bodleian dated in that year but containing only the titlepage,
- (identical in type with the published one, except in one figure of the
- date) and pp. 1 to 62 + [2 blank]. As it is, the Appendix only
- contains an alphabetical list, without references, of the authors of
- which manuscripts were preserved at Oxford: the intended catalogue
- appears in the ©Ecloga Oxonio-Cantabrigiensis©, Lond., 1600. The
- preface alludes to the founding of the Bodleian, but dr. James had not
- yet been appointed Librarian. There is no sufficient ground for
- supposing with mr. Thomas (_ut supra_, p. lv) and mr. Macray (©Annals
- of the Bodleian©, 2nd ed., p. 25) that the single advance copy of 1598
- implies an issue or edition of that year.

- A Latin decree passed by the President and Fellows of Trinity college
- on 12 Dec. 1602, compelling all who have been or are on the foundation
- of the college to show their gratitude by a proportionate gift of
- money, and enjoining on all future scholars an oath that they will
- fulfil this decree. Signed by the President and Fellows. There is
- another issue similar in form but apparently printed in London, which

-
- The only copy known was rescued from a binding in Brasenose College
- Library at Oxford, where it now is. The titles of Lord Buckhurst are
- given, and show that the earliest possible date is 15 May 1598 when he
- became Lord High Treasurer: the latest being 24 March 1602/3, when the
- Queen died. No doubt the sheets were fastened together forming one
- long notice. The Brasenose copy has lost a few lines at the end of the
- first column (67 lines left), the second is complete (62 lines).

- Rare. This John Sanderson of Lancashire, doctor of Theology, canon of
- Cambrai, seems to have escaped the notice of biographers. The better
- known bp. Robert Sanderson also wrote on Logic, see 1615. S. The
- preface throws no light on the life of the author. For the 4th ed.,
- see 1609. S. The first edition was printed by Plantin at Antwerp in
- 1589, the dedication to cardinal Allen being dated from Antwerp 1 Jan.
- “1589,” but neither in the dedication nor in the congratulatory poems
- which follow in this first edition is there any biographical matter.

- latter was the subject of a remonstrance of the House of Commons to

- appears to indicate the struggle of king James and England against
- Italian wiles, the words being from Virg. Aen. i. 72, where the
- context bears a different meaning. The dedication shows that the poems
- were written in 1606. The arms are in some respects peculiar, and were

- lord chief justice of England: signed “Tho: Iames,” “from the Publike
- Librarie in Oxford. Feb. 10. 1608”: 1–17, “A complaint of Iohn
- VVickliffe, exhibited to the King and Parliament”: 19–62, “A Treatise
- of Iohn VVickliffe against the orders of Friars”: (1–2) “An exposition
- of the hardest words,” a glossary.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 468. This is still the only printed
- edition of these two works of Wyclif, edited by dr. James. The usual
- titles of the treatises are “Four Articles” and “Objections of
- Freres.” This book is usually found with the James volume above, which
- is alluded to in the dedication. Dr. James does not specify the MSS.
- from which these treatises are printed, but MS. C.C.C. (Cambr.) 296
- seems to have both, while MS. Bodley 647 only contains the latter of
- the two.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 209, and 1633 B, 1634 B, 1682 B (in
- Latin): there are also edd. at Lond. 1623 and (in Latin) 1673. This is
- a remarkable book, from the style and evident practical experience of
- its author. Rude engravings occur on signn. C 7^r, C 7^v and (the
- first music printed at Oxford) F 1^r. The author mentions incidentally
- in the preface that a book on bees by T. H. of London (presumably
- Thomas Hill’s ©Profitable instructions for the ordering of bees©,
- Lond. 1579 and 1593) is really a plagiarism from Georgius Pictorius.

- (7–13) “The authors epistle dedicatory to the Lady Ann of Rohan,
- Sister to the Duke of Rohan”, signed “Peter du Moulin”: 1–121, the
- work.
-
- See 1634 D. The original edition of Pierre Du Moulin’s Héraclite, ou
- de la Vanité et Misère de la vie humaine was printed in 1609. The
- present translator was probably Robert Stafford of Exeter college, who
- matr. on 15 Mar. 1604/5 at the age of 16, his father being sir Francis
- (?) Stafford, see Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 291, and especially Bliss’s
- MS. additions in his own copy of the ©Athenæ© in the Bodleian. The
- coincidence of initials with Richard Smith in the 1634 edition seems
- to be accidental. See next art.

-
-3. ——. [Another issue, almost identical in appearance, but entirely
-reprinted: easy tests of the two issues are such as (1) on the titlepage
-of this second issue, if it be the second, the fourth line begins
-immediately under the beginning of the third line, whereas in the first
-issue it begins an _em_ to the right: (2) the O of the imprint is upside
-down in the first issue: (3) in the title of the author’s Epistle the
-second issue has “Anne”, the first “Ann”: (4) p. 41 l. 6 of text, the
-first issue has “Enuy”, the second “Envy”: (5) p. 121 l. 1 of text, the
-first issue ends with “God”, the second with “God is.” But it is
-difficult to say which is a reprint of the other: the second issue is
-more modern in spelling and type, and the woodcut ornaments are possibly
-less worn in the first. In fact it is conceivable that the second issue
-is in reality a few years later.]

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 89, where Wood states that the author was
- William Heale and the person opposed dr. William Gager, D.C.L. in
- 1589. The question “An liceat marito uxorem verberare” was one of
- those selected for the degree of D.C.L., 11 July 1608, but Gager was
- neither inceptor nor respondent. The lady M. H. seems from the
- dedication to have commanded Heale to undertake the task of replying
- and to have allowed him scant time in which to do it.

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 420. Wood is mistaken in calling Reuter a

- the admission register of the Bodleian, 3 Sept. 1608. L probably
- stands for Licentiatus utriusque juris. He was never matriculated.

- The map of Virginia which follows p. 8 is about 12–15/16 in. high ×
- 16⅜ in. broad, taking the extreme limits of the copperplate (the inner
- bounding line is 12⅜ × 15¾ in.): the title “Virginia” is on a scroll,
- and below the Scale of Leagues is “Discovered and Discribed by Captain
- Iohn Smith | Grauen by William Hole”: at the top left corner (to the
- reader) is a picture of Powhatan in state, and at the top right corner
- a figure of a “Sasquesahanoug” man. This first state of the map ought
- _not_ to have “1607” below the inscription about Powhatan, _nor_
- “1606” below the word “Smith” in the words below the Scale, _nor_
- “Page 41 | Smith” in the lower right corner, _nor_ the latitude and
- longitude marks on any side except the base; all of which additions
- are on the reissue of the map in Smith’s ©General Historie of Virginia
- ...© (Lond. 1624, fol.), and also in the reissue in ©Purchas his
- Pilgrimes©, 4th part, Lond. 1625, except that instead of “Page 41
- Smith” there is in the upper right (?) corner “1690,” a reference to
- the page.
-
- The W. S. of the first part is the rev. William Simmonds, D.D. of
- Magd. Coll. Oxford, for some time a resident in Virginia, see Wood’s
- ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 142, while the publisher of both parts was Thomas
- Abbay. The whole of the first part with trifling changes is reprinted
- in Smith’s ©Generall Historie of Virginia© (London. 1624, fol.) bk. 2,
- p. 21: in ©Purchas his Pilgrimes© (Lond. 1625, fol.) Lib. ix, ch. 3,
- p. 1691: and the second part, slightly abridged, in the same books,
- bk. 3, p. 41, where the glossary and map occur, but the 12th chap. is
- considerably altered: and ch. 4, p. 1705, respectively. The whole is
- carefully reprinted from the 1612 ed. by Edw. Arber in his ©English
- Scholar’s Library. Capt. John Smith ... Works.© (Birmingham, 1884),
- from whose notes the following words are taken:—
-
- [Preface to part 1].
-
- “The first part of this Work is evidently an expanded and revised text
- of that “Mappe of the Bay and Rivers, with an annexed Relation of the
- Countries and Nations that inhabit them” (p. 444), which President
- JOHN SMITH sent home, about November 1608, to the Council in London,
- as the result of his explorations in Chesapeake Bay in the previous
- summer.
-
- That this book of travels &c. should have been printed at the Oxford
- University Press is a most singular fact....
-
- The hand printing presses in England were jealously registered, and
- locked up every night, to prevent surrepti[ti]ous printing; all
- through the lifetime of our Author: and the Company of Stationers of
- London especially watched with a keen jealousy the printing operations
- of the two Universities of Cambridge and Oxford, who each possessed a
- single hand press. See W. HERBERT’S edition of J. AMES’S
- ©Typographical Antiquities©, iii, 1398, Ed. 1790, 4to.
-
- This solitary hand printing press at Oxford, usually produced sermons,
- theological and learned Works, &c.; in the midst of which, this book
- of travels crops up in a startling manner.
-
- Why could not, or would not SMITH get it printed in London? Had the
- revision of its second Part by the Rev. DR. SIMMONDS anything to do
- with the printing at Oxford? These nuts we must leave for others to
- crack.
-
- Of course, being printed at Oxford, this book was not registered at
- Stationer’s Hall, London ...
-
- It is sometimes misnamed the Oxford _tract_; but it is rather a book
- than a tract.
-
- [Preface to part 2].
-
- T. ABBAY states, ... [in his preface] respecting this second Part,
-
- _Neither am I the author, for they are many, whose particular
- discourses are signed by their names. This solid treatise, first was
- compiled by_ Richard Pots, _since passing the hands of many to pervse,
- chancing into my hands, (for that I know them honest men, and can
- partly well witnesse their relations true) I could do no lesse in
- charity to the world then reveale; nor in conscience, but approve._
-
- This Part is therefore the Vindication or Manifesto of the thirty or
- forty Gentlemen and Soldiers, who, under SMITH, saved the Colony ...
-
- This second Part of the ©Map of Virginia©, compiled, and perhaps added
- to, by RICHARD POTS, ... tested and revised by the Rev. WILLIAM
- SIMMONDS, D. D., ... and published by T. ABBAY; is a condensed summary
- of the sayings and writings of the following seven Virginian
- Colonists:
-
- _GENTLEMEN._
-
- _Original Planters_, 1607.
-
- NATHANIEL POWELL (killed in the Massacre, 22 March 1622) ...
- THOMAS STUDLEY, Cape Merchant or Colonial Storekeeper (who died 28
- August 1607) ...
-
-
- ©First Supply©, 1608.
-
- WILLIAM PHETTIPLACE, ...
- Dr. WALTER RUSSELL, ...
- RICHARD WIFFIN, ...
-
-
- ©Second Supply©, 1609.
-
- THOMAS ABBAY ...
-
-
- _SOLDIER._
-
- _Original Planter_, 1607.
-
- ANAS TODKILL ...
-
- In the revision of this text in the ©General History©, Lib. 3, in
- 1624; the testimonies of eight other Gentlemen were incorporated (not
- _invented_ as some would think) ...
-
- It is to be especially noted that, while he would endorse it all,
- Captain SMITH is not named as an author of _any portion_ of this
- Second Part, either in the title in the previous page or in the text
- itself: therefore no allusion to the POCAHONTAS deliverance should be
- expected in it; and there is none.”

- Temple in London when Hooker was Master (about 1585–91), against the
- inhibition from preaching issued against him by the Privy Council.
- Travers was ordained at Antwerp, and had imbibed Genevan doctrine with
- which he opposed Hooker. See Hooker’s ©Answer© above. Both treatises
- have been frequently reprinted, in Hooker’s ©Works©, &c. This issue
- does not seem to have been published by Travers himself, but only in
- order to accompany Hooker’s posthumously printed ©Answer©.

- 1613: (eight & four) 16^o: pp. [2] + 22: Long Primer Roman.
- Contents:—p. (1) title: (2) short dedication “to his honourable master
- S^r Richard Wenman Knight”: 1–19, the poem in 8-line stanzas, one on
- each page, ending with “finis.”: 21–22, “A morning after mourning,” 2
- more stanzas, ending with “finis.”
-
- Extremely rare. This book has never been found except in fragments,
- and usually in the bindings of books. The Bodleian copy is complete:
- Merton college, Oxford, has nearly a complete one from its bindings:
- the British Museum copy was dr. Bandinel’s (Sale Catal., Aug. 1861,
- no. 44), and contains the first 16 (?) pages. Other fragments are
- known to exist, chiefly in Oxford college library bindings. The poem
- was reproduced in facsimile in 1872 by W. H. Allnutt (100 copies).
-
- It seems on the whole probable that this William Basse, who was a
- retainer in sir R. Wenman’s house (Thame Park), is identical with the
- William Bas who wrote ©Sword and Buckler© (Lond. 1602, 4^o), which is
- a poetical defence of Serving-men against the scorn of their
- superiors. In Stanza 2 of the present poem is a clear reference to
- Bas’s ©Three Pastoral Elegies© (Lond. 1602, 4^o) in the following
- terms:—“Not (like as when some triviall discontents | First taught my
- raw and lucklesse youth to rue | Doe I to Flockes, now vtter my
- laments ...”. On the other hand the author of the ©Sword and Buckler©
- had two sons, whereas here he speaks of his “young Muse.” Other poems
- by “William Basse” (Bas) prepared for the press in 1653 were printed
- by J. P. Collier in 1870; and contributions to the ©Annalia Dubrensia©
- (1636) and Walton’s ©Angler©, as well as an “Epitaph upon Shakespeare”
- are mentioned.
-
- See J. Payne Collier’s ©Bibliographical account© (1865) p. 54, W. C.
- Hazlitt’s ©Handbook© (1867) and ©(Bibliographical) Collections©, 1st
- series (1876). The author is mentioned as living at Moreton near
- Thame, in Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iv. 222.
-
- The subject of the first poem is Prince Henry’s death, and of the
- “Morning” the wedding of the princess Elizabeth.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 293. This is a singular and uncommon
- book. The author was a soldier of fortune, who was admitted as a
- reader in the Bodleian as from St. Edmund hall on 27 Apr. 1611, but
- did not matriculate till 5 Sept. 1612. The verso of each leaf is in
- general Italian poems, and the recto of the next leaf a Latin version
- of them. On signn. F 2^v and L 3^v-M 2^v are letters and testimonials
- about him: at H 1^v is a poem in Italian and Latin on sir Thomas
- Bodley’s death: at H 2^v begins his ©Selua© or ©Sylva© in two parts,
- and at N 4^v a long and curious account in Italian and Latin verse of
- his stay in England and particularly Oxford and New College, which he
- was forced to leave (in 1614?) by the puritanical party. On M 3^v is
- an oration delivered in Italy, and on Q 2^v is a poem in both
- languages on the death of dr. Rives, which is repeated on Q 3^r. The
- whole book was intended to be produced at the wedding of Frederick
- elector Palatine with the princess Elizabeth (14 Feb. 1612/3), but by
- the printer’s delay was too late.

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 267. The circumstances of this book will

- without an index), pp. 332, 347, 353, 410, esp. 438–443. Briefly,
- Casaubon’s “... ad Frontonem Ducæum [Fronto Le Duc] ... Epistola ...
- (Lond. 1611) was a defence of the execution of Henry Garnett in 1606,
- against some Jesuit books; a reply was published at Cologne in 1613 by
- Andreas Eudaemon-Johannes (L’Heureux) “... Epistola ad Amicum Gallum
- ... item Responsio ad Epistolam Isaaci Casauboni”, the Responsio being
- dated 1612 on a separate titlepage. Then Prideaux was selected to
- answer the ©Responsio©, in order to relieve Casaubon of the task: at
- p. 224 he quotes Casaubon’s account of his father’s last days. There
- is no real ground for Pattison’s remark that “few copies of Prideaux’s
- pamphlet survive” (_ut supra_, p. 443).

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 16, 462. Dr. John Raynolds was Scholar,

- A. Clark, pt. 1, p. 4). There is no clear reference to the author
- being dr. Raynolds anywhere in the volume, but the fact is undoubted.
- The “Advertisement,” as a matter of printing, follows the Sermon, but
- was probably intended to be torn off at that place and pasted in where
- it is described above.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 16, where he mentions that Henry Jackson
- was editor of all the Orations except the first two which had been
- published before, see 1587 R. The funeral oration was first printed in
- 1607, see 1607 (Wake, 2nd ed.). From a bibliographical point of view
- there is great confusion in this and the two subsequent editions of
- Rainolds’s Orations (_Lond._ 1610, and _Lond._ 1628). For instance
- Wood himself in his remarks about Henry Jackson has confused the
- London edd. (B. C.) with the Oxford one (A).
-
- In A (the present volume) it is impossible to reckon twelve Orations,
- and the book falls into three parts (_a_) pp. [6] + 77 + [17], signn.
- A-D^{12}, sectt. i-iii. above: (_b_) pp. 201 + [1], signn. A-H^{12}, I
- 1–5, sectt. iv-xi.: (_c_) pp. [110], signn. I 6–12, K-N^{12}, sectt.
- xii-xiv. In B (Lond. 1619) _a_ is as before occupying pp. [12] +
- 1–106: then follows “... Rainoldi ... Orationes quinque ...” with a
- separate titlepage and preface by H. Jackson, occupying pp. 107–348
- [the Orations beg. ©Si quis© (1573), ©Redit agricolis© (1574), ©Si
- quantum vel, cum in isto© (1577), _Si quantum ad_ (1573)]: then _b_,
- pp. 349–528: then _c_, the Plutarch and Maximus Tyrius, with separate
- titlepages, occupying pp. 529–624: there is no extra titlepage at end.
- In C (Lond. 1628) the same four sections occupy pp. [6] + 1–92,
- 93–302, 303–460, 461–548, corresponding closely with B in contents.

- The “I. V.” is supposed to be John Verneuil sublibrarian of the

- not very likely to dedicate his first work to the head of another

- (7th), 1676 (8th), 1800 (9th), (10th), 1806 (11th), 1845, 188-,
- as well as epitomes. This celebrated work is replete with erudition,
- humour, and acuteness. The recondite sources of the numberless
- quotations are perhaps only to be found in the Bodleian, to which
- Burton bequeathed his printed books, of which a catalogue is among the
- Bodleian MSS. This first edition, which is anonymous except for one
- signature on p. (7) of the Conclusion, is accounted rare, but copies
- not infrequently appear for sale. Each successive edition during the
- author’s lifetime (he died in Jan. 1639/40) shows alterations.

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 421, where _Lond._ is a misprint for
- _Oxon._ The first edition was issued at Frankfort in 1621 “authore N.

- the ... Reader,” signed “T. L.”, i. e. Thomas Lodge: 1–21, the work:
- (2–3) not seen.
-
- Rare. The object of this small treatise, “the first worke of” the
- authoress “that ever came in Print,” is to persuade mothers to nurse
- their own children. The author appears to dedicate it to her
- daughter-in-law, not mother-in-law as Bliss states (Wood’s ©Ath.
- Oxon.©, ii. 384 _n._). The authorship has been ascribed to Thomas
- Lodge (Wood, as above), but there is every internal mark that he only
- wrote the address to the Reader, and possibly revised the whole.

-
- These are Directions to preachers in the Diocese of Oxford, to
- restrict their choice of subjects and treatment of them within the
- bounds of the XXXIX Articles. The Directions are dated 31 Aug. 1622,
- and quote mandates from the King (4 Aug. 1622) and the archbp. of
- Canterbury (12 Aug. 1622). It is perhaps doubtful whether this is
- genuinely a separate book from _Abbot’s_ Letter, above.

- delivered by William Knight of Broadgates Hall in a University sermon
- on Apr. 15, 1622, founded on principles of David Pareus, to the effect
- that subjects may take up arms against their sovereign. The
- propositions and censures were considered in a Convocation 25 June
- 1622. The form of oath to be taken by all future graduates is
- appended, and a note that Pareus’s book was burnt on 6 June 1622.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 315, 463. The poems are nearly all in
- Latin, but 5 are Greek, 2 Hebrew, one French, and one English: there
- is one chronogram. The “Oratio funebris” is clearly an added piece.

- So in Wood’s list of Rawlinson’s sermons (©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 506). It
- was preached in 1662 and re-printed at Oxford in 1625, but Wood’s
- statement is explicit, and there may have been a separate issue in
- 1622, though I have not met with a copy or other reference to it.

-
- A Latin hexameter poem on the death of sir Thomas Reid, of whom I do
- not readily find any account. No part of this was printed in Oxford,
- the woodcuts and type being unknown there: even the small device of
- the Arms of the University on the titlepage (which has caused this

- No doubt the book was printed in London.

- Dutchmen for transcription abroad at the rate of 20_s._ per quire,
- each quire taking them a week, and the hundred quires per year
- sufficing to keep two presses at work (p. 17). At p. 26 he explains

- Very rare. This is a curious production of a Dutch press, and appears
- to be a vigorous defence of Barneveldt (_d._ 1619) and the Arminians
- against Maurice prince of Orange and the Gomarists. Latin, French,
- Dutch and Italian are used, and the whole piece abounds with lacunae.
- “Walter Map” in the imprint is of course the well-known archdeacon of
- Oxford in the 12th cent., whose satires are still appreciated.

- (La Rochelle, 1617.) Cameron was a Scotchman, minister at Bordeaux and
- Professor of Theology at Saumur. The address to the reader apologises
- for using the word _prejudice_ as a translation of the French

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii. 331 (where “Lond.” is an error for

- Pemble (Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 1062), and succeeded him in his
- lectureship at Magdalen hall. There is something curious about the
- printing of this volume: the pagination is peculiar, and sign. K 1^r
- (p. “31”) has the running title of sermon 4 instead of 5: also the
- catchword on p. “38” is _have_ instead of _having_, and the next page

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 456. This tract is generally found
- without any title page (signn. A—B^4 only): the London booksellers
- seem to have printed one for their own purposes, not deeming the title
- as it heads p. 1 (“Sir Beniamin Ruddierd’s speach in behalfe of the
- Cleargy.”) sufficient. Some early copies have the number of the first
- page central over the author’s name, enclosed in brackets; but it was
- doubtless soon moved to the upper right hand corner, because in its

- rather than simply the first page. This speech was reprinted at London

- The author complains of a pirated and imperfect edition, probably

- at London, 1621–29). In C. S. Palmer’s Catalogue of Books, pt. 10
- (June 1878), no. 256, this book is attributed to Anthony Farindon, for
- whom see Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 457. Every page is within double
- lines at top and outside margin. The original title was probably
- “Promises”, for the compositor of one side of the first sheet of the
- text placed that as part of the headline, while the compositor of the
- other side and of the rest of the work has, as the author suggests,
- the new title “Saints Legacies” or “Legacies”.

- error of pagination on pp. 130–32 (“140–42”) was due to the prefatory

- medical quaestio defended after his degree, on 21 Dec. 1617. The
- “Laurus” must refer to the dedication in which an interesting account
- of the University of Montpellier is given. The occasion of publishing
- this medical work so long after the time at which it was written, was
- no doubt the incorporation of dr. Primerose at Oxford in March 1628/9.

- See 1628 V: the printer confesses that this is an unauthorized reprint

- fiduciam eum iterùm typis meis exprimendi”. There is nothing in this
- to indicate that this is a reissue of the sheets of 1628 V, without
- even correction of the misprints: on the contrary the list of errata
- given in 1628 is omitted. The first eight pages only are printing of
- 1631. This edition appears to be quite rare, but perhaps only
- accidentally so, because copies have not found their way into public
- libraries; or possibly Vossius may have succeeded in stopping a
- pirated issue.

- ...”: 1–162, the work: 163–167, “The Close”, a poem: 168, “Catastrophe
- Lectori”, an English poem.
-
- For the author, see Wood’s ©Fasti Oxon.©, i. 350. The proof of
- authorship is not clear, but the fact seems generally accepted, and
- Walkington was certainly a Fellow of St. John’s College, Cambridge.
- The book has also been attributed to Tho. Wilbie and T. Wombwell,
- according to Bohn’s Lowndes. This is a reprint of the 1607 London
- edition, re-printed at London in 1639 and 1663. Hitherto this Oxford
- edition has been generally regarded as the first, and the British
- Museum catalogue assigns it doubtfully to 1605. But it cannot be
- earlier than 1627 from the woodcuts used, and in that year first
- William Turner printed books by himself. And it cannot be later than 2
- Aug. 1638 when Michael Sparke assigned this book to John Dawson with
- one of 1631 and one not earlier than 1631. Again, a comparison of 20
- imprints of Michael Sparke between 1627 and 1638 raises a presumption
- that he did not use the expression “are to be sold by Michael Sparke
- at (or, dwelling at) the Blue Bible in Green Arbour” (nor was he
- connected with Oxford printers) until 1632, and he uses no local
- description of the kind at all in his imprints till 1629. On the whole
- 1631 is a probable year for the issue of this book, and 1631–33 more
- likely than any earlier or later date.
-
- The engraved title on steel (size of plate 5½ × 3½ in.) does not occur
- in the 1607 ed. and was doubtless made for this occasion: it was
- altered in the imprint and then used again in 1639 and 1663. On either
- side of the title is a graduate in cap and gown representing
- “CAMBRIDGE” and “OXFORD”: together they hold upright what seems
- intended for an optic glass or touchstone, but presents the exact
- appearance of a half-closed umbrella. Facing the title and part of the
- plate is another engraving (plate 5½ × 3½ in., as the title) which a
- reference to pag. 77 l. 2 shows to represent the Temperaments or
- complexions, with concentric rings: at top are two small wholly
- fanciful engravings of “Oxford” and “Cambridge”, each 5/16 × 1–11/16
- in.

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 100. The first and second editions were

- followed but were not published at Oxford. The first five books had
- been issued by Sandys at least twice (2nd ed., Lond. 1621). The large
- engraved titlepage (9⅝ × 5⅛ in.) is similar to the title of the 1626
- London folio edition in general design, but different in detail. In
- the 1632 engraving the title (nearly as on the printed leaf, as far as
- “G. S.”, with date only and no imprint) is on a sheet held by and
- between two figures of Amor and Sapientia, and on the lower edge of
- the sheet is “_Francisco Clein Inv: Salamon Sauery sculp:_”. Other
- emblematic figures and some Latin sentences fill the page. The British
- Museum copy has the engraved title, but the copy presented by the
- translator in 1636 to the Bodleian has not. The book is singular in
- having no small woodcut ornaments.

- ©Feminine Monarchie or history of Bees© (see 1634 B), are printed in a
- peculiar phonetic manner. The system is of considerable interest for
- the history of phonetic reforms of spelling and of English
- pronunciation, but made no way in practical use. The preface asserts
- the superiority of English in generality, by which he means wide
- geographical extent of usage, but laments the uncertain correspondence
- of sound and spelling, and the labour of learning the language, these
- two defects being due both to the want of alphabetical characters for
- certain sounds, and to historical changes of pronunciation, to which
- some persons adapt the old spelling and some do not. The author
- supplies the characters wanted, and counsels strictly phonetic
- spelling with certain exceptions where letters not strictly sounded
- indicate idiom or derivation. Generally an aspirated letter is
- represented by a line drawn through the letter (đ, w̶, ǥ, but ʇ), and
- mute vowels by a substituted comma (as strang‘, tru‘, nam‘ly) when not
- omitted (as qestion). Also conjoined double e and double o are used,
- but the exceptions to the phonetic spelling would be, among others, a
- serious objection to this system of compromise. In 1585 W. Bullokar
- published an edition of Æsop’s Fables in English, in a somewhat
- similar style of orthography.

-
- Very rare. The book consists of the names of the numbers, the Church
- Catechism, and the conjugation of French verbs, all in parallel Latin,
- English and French columns: and serves as an introduction to the
- English editions by John Anchoran (1631, 1633, 1637, 1639 or 1640,
- &c.) of J. A. Comenius’s celebrated ©Janua linguarum©. See 1634 S. The
- book is interesting as showing a connexion between William Turner the
- Oxford printer (1624–40) and the London printer of the same name
- (1623–35). The Stationers’ Register (ed. Arber, iv. 334) records the
- transfer of all the London Turner’s rights in this book and the
- ©Clavis ad portam© (which was certainly printed by the Oxford Turner
- in 1634, see 1634 S) to Michael Sparke on 17 Mar. 1634/5. Neither of
- these books was registered at Stationers’ Hall, and so probably this
- book as well as the ©Clavis© was printed at Oxford, though the
- imprint, type and woodcuts are not by themselves decisive. Probably
- the two Turners are in fact identical, and the Oxford printing
- establishment, though founded a year later than the other (but as a
- bookseller’s business not later than 1616/7), was the chief one. It is
- curious that under these circumstances Turner was allowed to be a
- member of the Stationers’ Company, which was particularly jealous of
- provincial presses.

- are said to have dressed up a carcase as Ketaban’s, to have carried it
- to her son, and to have enjoyed much honour by the miracles which it

-
- The occasion of these verses seems to have been an illness of the King
- late in 1632. Most of the poems are Latin, but four are English and
- one Greek. One of the printers (W. Turner) contributes some Latin
- verses. An anagram occurs in the title, and a chronogram (1632) on
- E1^v. There are curious variations in issues, and marks (see the
- register of signatures) of the difficulty of obtaining and marshalling
- in order these collections of separate poems. The early issues of
- sheet A on A3^r print “R. NEVVLIN _S. T. B._”, the later and common
- ones insert _C. C. C._ after the name, as also in A1^v, A3^r (twice):
- so “_Nov. C._” is inserted on A4^v, cf. A2^v. An interesting copy is
- in the British Museum, being the one specially printed for the King’s
- personal acceptance. The differences are that the book is on larger
- paper (the size even as bound and cut down being 7⅞ × 6 in.), and the
- title entirely reprinted. Every line of the title is in larger type
- and spread out laterally, except the anagram itself and imprint: also
- ll. 1 and 4 are roman, not italic, and ll. 3, 4, 6, 7 are printed _in
- gold_. In l. 6 the two Vs are lower case Us, and in l. 7 Rex appears
- as REX. So too the device is altered, and it is amusing to see that
- the imprint, for fear of royal vengeance, is altered from the English
- “W. T.” (William Turner) to the Latin “G. T.”! This fact shows also
- that the _last_ and not the first copy was struck off for the King,
- sheet A agreeing with this in being the later issue (see above).

- The work against which this was directed was written by a Jesuit named
- Matthias Wilson, who also employed the names of Nicholas Smith and, as
- in this case, Edward Knott, and was published in 1630. By Oct. 1634
- this first edition was nearly sold out, and the author submitted a
- copy to archbp. Laud for his approval or correction, with a view to a
- second edition. Laud suggested the alteration of a few passages, and
- this was made part of the accusations against him at his trial (see
- Prynne’s ©Canterburies Doom©, Lond. 1646, p. 251). The second edition
- thus altered was printed at London in 1634.

- See 1638 R. This is a curious example of three parts of a volume being
- entirely independent of each other, there being no general titlepage,
- but yet being indissolubly welded together by the signatures, so that
- no part could be issued separately. The first edition seems to have
- been issued in 1587, the 4th at London in 1619. The plan of the work
- is to assign a motto to every emperor, and then to discuss the motto
- and character of the person together: so that in effect the book is
- largely a discussion of proverbs of the nature of Erasmus’s ©Adagia©.

- See last item. The Argenis, which like the Satyricon is a political
- satire, was written and first published in 1621. The first discursus
- must have been rather out of date in this edition, for it suggests
- that the satire was written by William Barclay, father of the author.

- first edition, of which this is a reprint slightly different in
- arrangement, was published at London in 1604, fol.: the 3rd at the
- Hague in 1661: the 4th at Oxford in 1684, fol. These tables exhibit
- the whole status and administration of the Church of England in a
- synoptic form. The words underlined in the above title are in red ink,
- as well as _Oxoniæ_, and _anno salutis M.DC.XXIV._ in the imprint. The
- book is peculiar in form. The 1604 and 1684 editions may be called
- ordinary folios in shape: this one is made up of folio sheets (each
- containing two folio leaves) folded once and bound oblong, the
- intention being that the binder should cut through the line of folding
- at foot and bind the book as if of quarto size, each oblong leaf thus

-
- This is the early form of the Laudian Statutes. Its history may be
- read in Wood’s History of the University or in Griffith’s and
- Shadwell’s edition of the later (1636) form, published in 1888.
- Briefly, certain Delegates, especially dr. Zouch and Bryan Twyne (who
- wrote the preface), completed their work, and the University sent up
- the Corpus to the Chancellor, archbp. Laud. in Aug. 1633. He altered
- it and had it printed, and in July 1634 declared that the Corpus thus
- printed (the present work) should be the statutes under which the
- University should be governed for a year, Mich. 1634–Mich. 1635.
- Finally in June 1636 the full and authentic code was formally
- approved, and additions from it were entered in the copies of the 1634
- edition, the code not being printed as a whole or precisely until
- 1888. In 1768 a new edition was printed with certain changes and
- additions, and the 1768 edition is still in progress, the successive
- statutes being still connected by paging with that issue.
-
- A large part of the edition is on parchment, being presented in that
- form to the King, the chancellor of the University, each College, the
- Halls, and the Proctors. Blank spaces are left in many places for
- additions. Large paper copies are also found. For Synopsises of the
- statutes, see 1635 O, 1638 O.

-
- A satire on the gluttony and other luxurious vices of the age, in the

-
- This work describes the irruptions of the Barbarians into Italy till
- the year 973: the Insubrians lived in the district round Milan. The
- history seems to have been first issued in 1614, but Puteanus was
- Professor at Milan only from 1601 to 1606.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 205, for the editor and book. The first
- edition was issued at London in 1607: the present one was edited by
- dr. John Gregory, who has added many notes and the index, the author
- having died in 1628/9 or 1629/30. The title in the copies seen (one on
- large paper given by the author) has been sewn or pasted in
- separately, an original titlepage having been torn out. Perhaps this
- was in order to secure proper printing in red ink, for the words
- underlined in the title above are in red ink, as are also in the
- imprint the words _Oxford, University: 1634._, and _Cum Privilegio_.
- The next editions were issued at Oxford in 1662 and 1675 or 1676. This
- is the first Oxford book in which I have noticed Anglo-Saxon type
- (Pica, pp. 184, 193, in the notes).

- work, by Saltonstall: B1^r-F7^v, the work.
-
- Rare. See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, ii. 676. This is an
- alphabetical index of English words and phrases occurring in the 1058
- sections found in Comenius’s ©Gate of Tongues©, as edited for the
- second time in Latin, English and French, by John Anchoran in 1633
- (London). Earlier editions of Comenius’s celebrated work were
- published at Leutschau in 1631 (first edition), then at Leipzig (2nd
- edition) in 1632 (both as ©Janua linguarum©), and (as ©Porta linguarum
- trilinguis©) Anchoran’s editions, Lond. 1631, and 1632: the 3rd and
- 4th London Anchoran editions 1637 and 1639 or 1640 reprint
- Saltonstall’s index, but it is noticeable that Saltonstall’s five
- short Latin introductory poems contain at least 18 false quantities,
- and that he was a commoner of Queen’s college without ever
- matriculating or taking his degree. See 1633 G.

- For the first work see 1612 S, of which this is a simple reprint.
- Twenty-seven Richard Smiths took their degree at Oxford between 1550
- and 1609, and the author of this book has not yet been identified
- among them.
-
- The second work, which is necessarily linked to the first by the
- signatures, though not covered by the titlepage, is a reprint of 1609
- D. No doubt the reprinter of these works thought the two R. S.s
- identical, but they are in all probability not, the translator of
- Molinaeus being Robert Stafford.

- (9–12) “Candido Lectori Franciscus Kinaston ...”, dated “Ex Aulâ Albâ

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, iii. 38. The Latin translation is in a
- singular rhythmical rhyming metre, essentially decasyllabic iambics,
- but with an extra unaccented syllable at end, and with certain
- licences in revolving a long syllable into two short. The rhymes are
- _ababbcc_. The first two lines for example are “Dolorem Troili
- duplicem narrare | Qui Priami Regis Trojæ fuit gnatus.” This appears
- to be by far the earliest translation of any part of Chaucer into
- another language. Part of a commentary on the piece by sir F. Kinaston
- was printed in 1796. The English part is in black-letter, the Latin in
- italic Roman. One of the complimentary poems is in would-be Chaucerian
- style. The collation of this book is difficult: but probably it is
- this:—signn. A, †, *^4, **^2, ( )^1, B-Z, Aa-Nn^4: †1-**^2 is matter
- foisted in, which prevented the true fourth leaf of sign. A from
- forming, as it should, the first leaf of the Latin translation (pp.
- 1–2 of the 1st book). Accordingly one of two plans was adopted: either
- the 4th leaf of sign. A was torn off, and a new 4th leaf inserted
- where the translation begins (which seems to have been usually done,
- and which gives the collation above, assuming the existence at one
- time of an A4): or the torn-off fourth leaf was itself awkwardly
- pasted on to sign. 2**.

-
- The author, a Cambridge man, though at this time bp. of Chichester
- (1628–38), signs the dedication as “R. M. humillimus Ecclesiæ

- as preparations (apparatus) to the Life of Christ which is the subject
- of the same author’s ©Origines Ecclesiasticæ© (tom. i, 2 parts, Lond.
- 1636, 1640). The underlined words in the above title are printed in

-
- No imprint, but Oxford (?), 1635 (?): (one) la. 4^o. Contents:—p. (1)
- the Encyclopædia.
-
- This is a fine sheet, engraved by “T. Cecill” on metal, 16–3/16 ×
- 16–1/16 in. In the upper part there is a dedication of “hæc
- Encyclopædia et Synopsis Statutorum” to archbp. Laud. A large series
- of concentric circular spaces fill the centre, each divided into a
- left hand and right hand half:—counting from the centre (a sun), (1)
- days of the week, (2) hours of the day, (3) subjects, (4) explanation
- of the next circle, (5) List of proper audience and books for each
- lecture: (6) explanation of the next circle, (7) lists of fines for
- absent professors and absent audience: in the four corners are notes,
- one of which supplies another title for the sheet, namely “Cyclus
- Prælectorum ... ex Corpore Statutorum depromptus et delineatus ...”.
- Some copies (issued in 1638, see below) have a small printed label
- “Iovis” pasted over “Martis”, or else the plate itself altered to
- “Iovis”, in the note that Easter Term ends on the _Tuesday_ before
- Pentecost, and a longer slip pasted at the foot containing a note
- about the teaching of Arabic and Medicine.
-
- The chart is usually found folded and pasted in the 1638 edition of
- the abridged Statutes: but a copy in the University Archives is pasted
- _between_ the two columns of the 1635 ©Synopsis Statutorum©, which in
- combination with the dedication quoted above suggests that it was
- first issued in 1635, a natural year for it, when the interest in the
- new Code of Statutes was fresh. There is nothing to suggest that it
- was printed away from Oxford. The device in the title is a well-made
- representation of the University arms with the motto “Sapientiæ et
- felicitatis”.
-
- Thomas Crossfield of Queen’s certainly edited the 1638 ©Statuta
- selecta©, and may have issued the ©Synopsis© (which is in his style),
- and possibly therefore the ©Encyclopædia©. At any rate he took the
- plate of the ©Encyclopædia© and used it in 1638. It is in his own copy
- of the ©Statuta selecta© that the altered plate is found (see above);
- and the note about Arabic and Medicine is there in his own handwriting
- preceded by a ☛, just as in the printed slip.

-
- The translator of this work, which first appeared in English at London
- in 1618, was Edmund (Maria) Bolton. The present edition was printed in
- London but published at Oxford, and the title is the engraved one of
- 1618, by Simon Pass, displaying in the upper centre a Roman, in the
- lower centre the title, an eagle at top, and symbols and letterpress
- about, and altered in the imprint only. The collation assumes that a
- sheet of ten leaves could not be printed and that a blank leaf is
- needed before and after the prefatory matter: the title is on an
- inserted leaf. This edition was issued after the translator’s death,
- and seems not to be entered in the London Stationers Company’s
- Registers.

- grammar in English: (71–2) Latin poem by Will. Lily: (73) a title
- within a line and border:—“Brevissima | institutio, | _Seu_ | Ratio
- Grammatices | cognoscendæ, ad omni-|um puerorum utilita-|tem

- interpretatio ...”: (31–3) four Latin poems, including graces: (34)
- woodcut picture of the tree of knowledge, and students gathering the
- fruit.
-
- This is the first Latin grammar printed at Oxford since 1518, and is
- issued “Cum Privilegio.” The grammar itself was already, in its Latin
- form, more than a hundred years old, and many editions of it had been
- printed. Other Oxford editions were issued at least in 1651, 1672–3,
- 1675, 1679, 1687, 1692, 1699, 1709, 1714, 1733. For William Lily see
- Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, i. 32. The signatures connect the two
- parts of the book.
-
- The importance of this issue is considerable. In consequence of
- disputes between John Lichfield and Turner, archbp. Laud’s attention
- had been called to the state of printing at Oxford, and the absence of
- any such printing privileges as were possessed by Cambridge. A charter
- of privileges was accordingly obtained, dated 12 Nov. 1632, confirmed
- and amplified by another dated 13 March 1632/3. These allowed the
- University to print Bibles, Prayerbooks, Grammars, Almanacs, &c.,
- which had till then been the monopolies of the London Stationers’
- Company and the University Press at Cambridge. No Bibles or
- Prayerbooks were issued at Oxford till 1675, but this Grammar and
- three Almanacs (see 1637 B, C, and W.) raised the standard of revolt
- against monopoly. On 20 March 1636/7 the Stationers’ Company agreed to
- pay the University £200 a year, if it would agree not to issue the
- classes of books in question, and no further difficulties arose till
- after the Restoration.

- 1–117, (1) “Notarum auctarium” with a critical preface, and (on p. 20)
- an engraving: ending with a Latin poem on the death of Thomas
- “Wethereld” (Wetherell) of Queen’s college Oxford.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 446, and 1638 L. The first
- part of this volume to the end of the Συνόψεις except Langbaine’s
- preface, is a reprint of the 1612 (Geneva) edition by Gabriel de
- Petra: the notes are Langbaine’s first published work. The engraved
- title by William Marshall is from a metal plate, displaying Hermes, an
- eagle, Phaethon, &c., round the title: and is an inserted leaf.
- Signatures O and P are run into one. The date on the title appears to
- be that of the engraving, but as it was altered in the 2nd edition,
- though the plate is practically identical, it may be taken as the date
- of the book also.

- the music by Charles Coleman. Most of the written part is in the

-
- Poems by members of the University of Oxford on the birth of Princess
- Elizabeth, 28 Dec. 1635: in number about 142, of which 31 are English,
- 8 Greek, 2 Hebrew and 1 French. The number of English, and their
- separation from the rest is a mark of change. Most copies want the
- folded sheet (about 11 × 6 in.), which contains an engraved picture of
- a crown on a board supported at the four corners by a prince, two
- princesses and an infant in a cradle, all upon a large pedestal.
- Beneath are six Latin verses, beginning “Quam stabilis Quadrata,” and
- then “Ita augustissimo Domino suo vovet humillima ancilla Acad. Oxon.”
- Curiously the engraving cannot possibly be correct, since the place of
- prince James is taken by a female figure! Perhaps for this reason the
- plate was soon suppressed: it is certainly now very rarely found.

-
- These are poems by members of the University of Oxford to celebrate
- the birth of the princess Anne, born 17 Mar. 1636/7 (died Dec. 1640).
- About two-thirds of the verses are to the king, chiefly in Latin (nine
- in Greek, one in Hebrew), the rest to the queen in English (two in
- French): there is one chronogram. The make-up of ordinary copies of
- the volume is extraordinary: there are no pages or signatures, but if
- A-O represent the sections the collation would be as follows, the
- figures in brackets indicating the mark affixed to the first page of
- some sections in the place where the pagination would naturally have
- been printed:—A^1, B^4, C^4 (1), D^4 (2), E^4 (3), F^4 (4), G^4 (6),
- H^4 (66: on 2nd leaf, 8). I^4 (5), K^1, L^4 (2), M^4, N^4 (1), O^4
- (3)! The last page contains a poem by the printer, Leonard Lichfield.
- I have seen a copy in which a leaf following the title bore a printed
- Latin poem beginning “Quæ Te Mascula” referring to an emblem in
- diamond form displaying three lilies and two small and one large lion;
- which emblem occurs in a pen-and-ink drawing in the above copy on an
- inserted leaf preceding the title.

- John Booker was a prolific Almanac maker: his ©Almanac and
- Prognostication© was issued from 1631 to 1649: his ©Celestial
- Observations© from 1651 to 1662, and the ©Telescopium© from 1659 to
- 1676, but the dates may be capable of extension, and as Booker died in
- 1667, the ©Telescopium© must have been carried on by a successor under
- his name. Only this one issue was printed at Oxford, since the
- Stationers’ Company bought out the University’s right of printing this
- and certain other kinds of book in March 1636/7, see 1636 L, and
- _Booker_, _Wyberd_ below. The underlined words in the title are
- printed in red, as well as much of the woodcut border (which bears the
- signs of the zodiac, the royal arms, and an open book), the words
- “Oxford,” “to the famous Universitie. 1637.” in the imprint, and many
- words in the text. The same astrological woodcut occurs as in the
- Wyberd, but in a more injured state, showing that Wyberd had
- precedence in point of date. Booker’s Almanac for 1636 was printed at
- Cambridge.

- This is a kind of prospectus of the encyclopædic work on education

- Hartlib without the permission of the author, partly in order to
- gather the opinions of scholars on the scheme, it was not displeasing
- to Comenius, especially since some of his critics suggested a
- _Collegium Pansophicum_ to work out the details. This we learn from an

- P. This is a collection of twenty sermons by dr. Prideaux from 1614,
- several preached before the king or court, and several preached at
- Oxford: those delivered at the consecration of Exeter College Chapel
- and about Gowrie’s conspiracy being of considerable interest. All,
- except the second (which is grouped with the first) and the eleventh,
- have separate titlepages, and are often cited as separate editions,
- but the signatures run throughout the volume. Sign. Y consists of one
- leaf only, the other three having been obviously intended for a
- one-leaf title and two-leaf dedication of the sermon following (no. x
- in the above divisions, really the eleventh sermon), but apparently
- they were accidentally omitted. Some were already printed, those

-
- Scheibler’s ©Metaphysica© was first issued in 1617, and reissued at

- added the Exercitationes de Deo (see Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss,
- iv. 336), which were reissued in 1658. The edition of 1638 is simply a
- reissue of the sheets of the 1637 edition, with different imprint and
- date on the first titlepage, and “Meta®-®” on the first titlepage
- altered to “Meta-.” Some woodcut diagrams occur in the Exercitationes:

- The first edition of this work by Emanuele Tesauro (_b._ 1581) was

- indicates an early issue.

-
- See Wood’s ©Fasti Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, i. 301. The translator of the Τὰ
- κατὰ Λευκίππην καὶ Κλειτοφῶντα was Anthony Hodges, of New College.
- Wood refers to an impression of this book in 1638 without the
- commendatory verses: this would be no doubt an early issue. The
- engraved title is a fine one by W. Marshall, in which the words of the
- ordinary title, with impr. 173, are on a shell held by two mermaids;
- behind is a storm-tossed ship with the two lovers on board and Cupid
- in the stern, with the city of “Alexandria” in the background. This
- title was probably intended to be printed on the second leaf of the
- first section: but as it is, the frontispiece is on an inserted leaf,
- and the true second leaf is torn out. This book seems to be still the
- only English translation of the romance, except that in Bohn’s

- while there is no colophon, there being no p. (10) at end.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 653 and 1621 B. There is a
- note before the _Errata_ in which the author says that the book was
- begun to be printed not long before at Edinburgh “sed à typographis
- nostris illicò suppressa, Londini mox illorum cum venia protelata,
- Oxoniæ demum perfecta.” Accordingly signn. A-X x are not Oxford
- printing, but presumably from Edinburgh type: at p. 347 begins Oxford
- printing, the prefatory matter being also Oxford work. It would appear
- that some Edinburgh printers began a reprint, that the Oxford printers
- interfered and suppressed it, that with their consent the part printed
- in Scotland was not destroyed but _protelata_, prolonged, given a
- further lease of life, at London, and finally brought to Oxford and
- completed. The woodcuts and details of printing point to the division
- being before p. 347. The signatures of the first sheet are _nil_, § 2,
- §, § 2, § 3, _nil_ (!), not counting the engraved title which should

-
- This is a translation of the 4th book of the well-known ©Cour Sainte©
- of Nicolas Caussin the Jesuit (_d._ 1651), entitled “De l’Impieté des
- Cours” or “Le Politique malheureux”, omitting the first few words: and
- is in fact a biography of Herod the Great, with reflections on his
- conduct. The translator gives no clue to his own name, but mentions
- the author as “the judicious and eloquent Causinus.” The ©Cour Sainte©
- (first issued in 1624) was translated as a whole into English in 1631
- and into Italian, German, Spanish, and other languages, but this 4th
- part seems never to have been issued separately in French (in Italian
- 1634, &c.): and this Oxford volume though not rare has escaped even
- the eye of Backer and his editor Sommervogel (1891), probably because
- concealed under initials. Some copies have 1639 on the titlepage.

- Contents:—p. (1) title, within double lines: (3–7) epistle dedicatory

- Theological Professors at Oxford, one dated 14 Oct. 1637: (9–31) “The
- Preface to the author of Charity maintained [M. Wilson] with an answer
- to his pamphlet entituled a Direction to N. N.”: 1–413, the book,
- which incorporates most of the text of the book answered: (1) Errata.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 91. This book (which Wood
- erroneously states was issued in 1636, and which was republished in
- 1664, 1674, 1684, 1687, 1704, 1719, 1727, 1742, 1752, 1820, 1838,
- 1845, 1846), was the effect and cause of considerable controversy,
- Chillingworth having recently reverted from Roman Catholicism to
- Protestantism, and the form of the book being that of an answer to
- part 1 of M. Wilson’s ©Mercy and truth or Charity maintayn’d© (1634),
- itself an answer to Potter’s ©Want of Charity© (see 1633 P). The
- controversy is well described in the Dict. of National Biography.
- There was a suspicion that Wilson obtained advance copies of the
- sheets of this book as it went through the press, see Laud’s History
- of the Chancellorship under the year, where are also given the
- archbishop’s views about the advisability of Chillingworth answering
- the second part also of Wilson’s book. The present volume is headed
- “Part i.” throughout. The issue of this volume with an imprint showing
- that it was published in London is said to have some slight changes,
- but they are not easily to be found, and in general the two issues
- appear to be identical. The description of the Errata and their cause
- shows that it was the custom, at least at Oxford, for authors to
- revise their proofs—which has been recently denied.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, ii. 871, but the incident which
- was the occasion of the sermon is related on col. 870. Matthew died on
- 29 Mar. 1628, and this sermon was intended to disprove Campian’s
- statement that Matthew practically confessed that if one read and
- believed the fathers he would become a Papist. The sermon was
- originally delivered at Oxford on 9 Oct. 1581, but this is certainly
- the first printed edition.

- years old at his death, when the title became extinct.

- These are verses to congratulate the Queen on her safe delivery and
- condole with her for the loss of the infant princess, who seems to
- have lived only a few hours. The reference is apparently to the birth
- of the princess Catherine (_b._ and _d._ 29 Jan. 1638/9), but the
- ordinary pedigrees and histories seem not to notice this event. The
- poems are in Latin and English, except three Greek and two French. The
- printer (Lichfield) contributes a poem at the end. The signatures show
- the hasty method of printing.

-
- This is the first edition of the selected Statutes, the beginning of a

- Other editions were issued in 1661, and with the title “Parecbolæ” in
- 1671, 1674, 1682, 1693, 1705, 1710, 1721, 1729, 1740, 1756, 1771,

- 1842, 1843, 1845, 1846, and no doubt in some other years, especially
- after 1830: the book was in fact reprinted whenever the stock in hand
- was exhausted. Wharton’s ©Second Volume of the Remains of ... William
- Laud ...©, under the date, proves that it was issued in Jan. 1637/8. A
- small folded sheet “Indiculus Statutorum”, a plan of them arranged by
- subjects and bearing the signature A2, should follow the titlepage,
- and in some copies the large ©Encyclopædia©, described in 1635 O, is
- inserted to face p. 16 or 20: but the book can hardly be pronounced
- imperfect, if this plate is wanting. The signatures of the prefatory
- matter are peculiar: the first two leaves (blank, and title) form a
- section of themselves, and also the next two, not counting the folded
- leaf, and this even in large paper copies. So too sign. Q^6 is divided
- into two sets of two and four leaves respectively! The 4th leaf of P^4
- is presumably blank and perhaps always torn off. The underlined words
- in the above title are printed in red, as well as “Excusa cum
- Licentiâ,” and “pro Guil: Webb,” in the imprint.

- to have been delivered on Nov. 5, 1638, dashed the hopes which the
- Roman Catholics seem to have entertained of the conversion of Taylor
- to their faith. Wood asserts (_ut supra_, 782) that “several things
- were put in[to the sermon] against the Papists by the then
- vice-chanc.”, dr. Accepted Frewen. The sheets of this work were

- The first three parts of Balzac’s Letters were printed at London in
- 1634 (part 1, translated by William Tyrwhitt) and 1638 (parts 2 and 3,
- translated by sir Richard Baker). The present volume is a venture by
- the printer, who has prefixed some letters, papers, and a Latin poem
- all connected with the quarrel between Balzac and the Jesuit
- Franciscus Garassus, in which Louis xiii intervened as a conciliator.
- There is an engraved title by W. Marshall, in which kings and
- theologians do honour to Balzac, the title being “A new collection of
- Epistles of Mons: de Balzac, being the fourth and last volume. Newly
- translated”, with impr. 192. The range of Balzac’s letters is from
- 1631 to 1637.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, ii. 141. The original MS.
- (finished 27 Oct. 1586) is now part of MS. (Queen’s coll. Oxford no.
- 218). The method of this commentary or rather analysis is scholastic
- and formal. The editor says that he rescued the original MS. from a
- “rurale musæum,” when it was “pulvere situque squalidum, & tantum non
- sepultum.” The author died in 1613. It is curious that in Moss’s
- ©Manual of classical bibliography© (Lond., 1825, vol. i, p. 157) this
- book is called “Westerman, Commentaria in Ethica Aristotelis. Oxon.
- 4to. 1640,” with a reference to Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, ii.
- 141. The explanation is that _Westerman_ heads the column in Wood’s
- work, because the account of William Westerman follows Brerewood on
- that column: but the ascription deceived even so acute a bibliographer
- as the late professor Chandler in his List of editions of the
- Nicomachean Ethics (Oxf. 1878).

- For an account of the earlier editions, see Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ii.

- below, edited this also, Carpenter having died in 1628. The work is
- evidently intended to be read with a view to the political
- circumstances of the time, under the disguise of dealing with “a

-
- This is an anonymous history of Britain from the earliest times. The
- editor, M(atthew) H(unt), does not mention the fact, that an undated
- edition was printed at London by Henry Bynneman (who published from
- 1566 to 1587), with the title “De rebus gestis Britanniæ commentarioli
- tres. Ad Ornatissimum Virum M. Henricum Broncarem Armigerum E.S.”,
- from which it has been conjectured that the author’s initials were
- “E.S.” The first words of the text are “Britannia est Insula natura
- triquetra.” The name of Clain is given in the British Museum catalogue
- as the author of an Amberg edition of 1603, and in Thomas Thorpe’s
- Catalogue of books (1851) p. 51 an edition printed at Hamburg in 1598
- is mentioned under the same name, but I can find no account of the
- author, who probably lived at Amberg. Some have ascribed the book to
- John Clapham, who published an English ©History of England© till the
- coming of the Saxons, in 1602 and 1606.

-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 350, where the translator
- from the French into English is stated to be Edmund Chilmead. The
- original French edition was published at Toulouse in 1612, under the
- title _Traité de l’essence et guérison de l’amour_, and at Paris in
- 1623 as _De la maladie d’amour, ou melancholie erotique_. If Robert
- Burton was acquainted with the first edition of this book, as he well
- may have been, there can be little doubt that he has taken or imitated
- the general method and treatment of the subject, in his _Anatomy of
- Melancholy_: but the French author is surpassed on his own ground. The
- research is greater and the felicities of language more numerous and
- striking in Burton, while the plan is also further and distinctively
- elaborated. There is no mention of Burton’s book in the poems prefixed
- to this translation. The words underlined in the above title are
- printed in red, as well as “Oxford,” and “sold by Edward Forrest .
- 1640.” in the imprint.

-
- The authorship of this play is doubtful. The first edition (Lond.
- 1639) was entitled “The Bloody Brother. A Tragedy. By _B. J. F._” i.
- e. Ben Johnson and Fletcher?, and it was entered in the Stationers’
- Register on 4 Oct. 1639 as by “J. B.” Massinger is also supposed to

- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 31. The author died before

- The editor, who is known to be Philip Papillon of Exeter college,
- declares that the play is here printed without the author’s knowledge
- and against his modesty. The lines relating to Shakespeare, which have
- perhaps only been reprinted in Pickering and Chatto’s Catalogue of
- books, nos. 70–72 (June 1893), p. 15, are:—

- There is no bibliography of the numerous works of Erycius Puteanus,
- but the ©Suada Attica© was first published at Louvain in 1615, and the
- ©Palæstra© in 1611. They contain orations and exercises delivered at
- Milan and Louvain. The _Palæstra Bonæ Mentis_ is properly a hall at
- Louvain, where some of these were delivered, and in another sense a
- literary club which met there for debate, recitations and the like.

- on the author and book: 1–134, the poems: (1) title of the Muses
- Looking-glass, almost as in 1638 R, with impr. 174: 1–87, (1), the

- impr. 174: (4) “Dramatis Personæ”: (6–7), 1–101, the play.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, i. 565, and 1638 R. The
- “enlargement” in this edition is not evident. The engraved title bears
- a bust of Randolph on a pedestal, with Philosophia and Poesis doing
- him honour, and a celestial sphere and Pegasus above. On the pedestal
- are the words “Poems by Tho : Randolph. The 2^d Edition much
- Enlarged.”, and below is impr. 196. Each of the three parts is
- separately paged, but the two plays are linked by the signatures,
- while the title alone connects the plays with the poems. The Cambridge
- 1640 edition of “The Jealous Lovers”, a comedy by Randolph, is not
- infrequently found bound with this volume, but has no necessary
- connexion with it.

- Very rare. The only copy I have seen of this privately printed book is

-
- This is a rare and curious book: rare, inasmuch as no ordinary library

- of it; and curious, as having its two parts—which are indissolubly
- joined by the signatures and sections—printed by the same printer for
- two different London publishers, R. Royston and S. Enderby. We must
- suppose these two to have ventured proportionate parts in the book.

- ©Pharamus, sive Libido vindex, Hispanica tragædia©, but neither Wood

- be doubted) is difficult to find. Bp. Barlow wrote the author’s name
- on the title of his copy of ©Pharamus©. The poems imply that the play

- in two parts: (1) “Errata”.
-
- See Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 511. The signatures establish
- a connexion between the two divisions.
-
-
-26. ——. “_Descr. Juris & Judicii sacri; ad quam Leges, quæ ad Religionem
-& piam Causam respiciunt, referuntur._ Oxon. 1640. qu.”
-
- So in Wood’s ©Ath. Oxon.©, ed. Bliss, iii. 511, where it is stated
- that the De Jure Sacro, Militari and Maritimo, were issued together.
- In the Leyden reprint of 1652 the De jure sacro is rather shorter than
- the other two. It does not seem to have found its way into the Oxford
- or London libraries which have published their catalogues.
-
-
-
-
- Periodical.
-
-
-The ©Quaestiones in Vesperiis© and ©Quaestiones in Comitiis© (see Andrew
-Clark’s ©Register of the University of Oxford©, vol. ii. pt. i. [1887],
-p. 169) were often printed.
-
- 1602. The earliest I have seen are the theological “Quæstiones
- (Christo propitio) in Vesperijs discutiendæ, _Iul._ 10. 1602,”
- followed by some belonging to the Comitia, and some Law _quaestiones_
- belonging to both, and by a specimen of dr. John King’s treatment of
- his three _quaestiones_, in Latin verse: the whole forming a small
- sheet of 16 pages, with the last five blank.
-
- 1605. The ©Quaestiones ... in Comitiis ... coram ... Rege ... Aug....
- 1605© were printed in folio sheet form, as was invariably the case in
- later years, occupying in this year four pages. Whether this issue was
- exceptional or not, is not clear.
-
- 1608. In this year at latest begins the series of ordinary folio
- sheets of _quaestiones_: of which examples have been seen for the
- years 1608, 1614, 1618, 1619, 1622, 1627, 1628, 1629, 1632, 1634,
- 1635, 1639, 1640, and intermittently until at least 1693.

-
- Something can be added to the account. The two original books in

- the _locus classicus_ for their history is naturally in Dibdin’s
- ©Bibliotheca Spenceriana© (1814), ii. 271, iii. 411: where will be
- found a reproduction (in type) of the two titles and colophons. Of the
- Pliny Dibdin states that one George Smith passed it on to Van Damme,
- from whom Askew bought it for fifteen guineas. With respect to the
- Lystrius, it appears that the “Mr. Dent” who purchased it at the Askew
- sale was an agent or pseudonym of Mr. Alchorne. The volume bears a
- manuscript note pretending to be from “i. Korsellis” at Haarlem in
- 1471, stating that the book came to him from his brother Frederick.

-¬Syrretus¬, Antonius. [Antonii Syrreti Formalitates de mente magistri

-Iacobi” and printer’s mark at foot, then two more Latin verses] |
-¶Uenu¿m¿dantur in vniuersitate Oxonien¿si¿. Sub | intersignio
-sanctissime Trinitatis ab Hen⸗|rico Jacobi bibliopole Londonien¿sis¿. |
-
- This interesting title is found on a fragment of two leaves discovered
- by Mr. R. G. C. Procter in New College Library at Oxford, in Aug.
- 1891, and now marked “Auct. V. 16,” fol. 3. The verso of the title is
- occupied with a woodcut of the arms of Henry VIII, with supporters,
- two angels with scroll, &c. The second leaf is marked A 2, and
- contains a dedication and certain definitions, all part of the
- Additiones Mauritii. The book was no doubt printed in London, but sold
- in Oxford by Henricus Jacobi, who died in the latter city towards the
- end of 1514, intestate, see p. 273. From an interesting account of
- Jacobi in ©Bibliographica©, pt. I (1894), by Mr. E. G. Duff, it
- appears that Jacobi, after publishing in London from 1505 to 1512,
- came to Oxford in 1512 or 1513 (see pp. 95, 112 of the account).
-
- This entry and that of 1506 should strictly be in a list by
- themselves, being neither “lost” nor “fictitious.”
-

-
-P. 14. ¬Bilson¬, Thomas. _Add at end_:—
-
- A curious account of an abortive effort on the part of Edmund

- (1875), p. 793.
-
-
-P. 17. ¬Parsons¬, Robert, (2nd entry, no. 6). _Add at end_:—
-
- An explanation of this reprint will be found in Arber’s ©Transcript of
- the Stationers’ Registers© II (1875), p. 793 (a petition from N.
- Newton, E. Bollifant, and others, in the winter of 1585/6), from which
- it appears that John Wight, printer, of London, who had entered a copy
- of his edition of the book at Stationers’ Hall on 28 Aug. 1584, sent
- his son to Oxford to buy up the whole of Barnes’s reprint: which was
- done. But Barnes promptly printed “two ympressions more,” of which the
- present volume is no doubt one. Possibly the preceding art. is the
- other re-impression, and Wight effectually suppressed the whole first
- edition.

- directly from Photius’s ©Bibliotheca©, which was first printed in
- 1601. Had the matter been taken from a MS. of Photius, the editor

- containing three theses. The first is _Politia Ecclesiæ Anglicanæ cum

- poems, the last being written in MS. The third is followed by Latin,
- Arabic, and Æthiopic poems, the last two being filled in in MS. The

- APPENDIX A.
- The Fifteenth Century Press.
-
- (Supplementary to, and corrective of, pp. 1–4.)
-
-
-The Oxford Press of the fifteenth century is a peculiarly interesting
-one. At present fifteen works are known to belong to it, ranging in date
-from “1468” (1478?) to 1486 (1486/7?). Not only is its origin quite
-independent, so far as is known, of Caxton’s printing, not only are new
-products of the press still from time to time discovered, but the battle
-which has been waged about the date of its establishment has made the
-“1468” book a veritable typographical battleground, and in Henry
-Bradshaw’s opinion a touchstone of intellectual acumen.
-
-In the first place some details of the various books will be given: then
-an account of the type and presswork: and lastly a description of each
-book supplementary to, and corrective of, that contained on pp. 1–4.

-
- THE TYPE AND PRESS-WORK.
-
-Seven kinds of type were used, the use of which can be seen on p. 238.
-Facsimiles of all of them are given in plates II-V.
-
-These obviously divide the books into three groups. In the first group
-of three (“1468”–1479/80) only type no. 1 is used. In the second group
-of four (1480–82, Theodoric Rood) only types 2–3 are found. In the last
-group consisting of eight (1483–1486/7, T. Rood and Thomas Hunte) only
-types 4–7 are used, except that the peculiar black initial type (no. 3)
-is occasionally still used.
-
-The press was of course a wooden hand-screw one, which was at first
-employed to print one page at a time (Jerome), but after the first book
-two pages and perhaps later four were struck off together. The earliest
-printing press of which we have an engraving is as late as 1499/500 (see
-an article in ©Bibliographica©, 1894, no. 2), but there was great
-conservatism in detail, and from the early engravings and such
-researches as those which Blades, De Vinne, Talbot Reed, and others have
-made, we know many of the details of working in the earliest days.
-
-
- _Type_ 1. “1468”—1479/80.
-
-Character:—Cologne black.
-
-Body:—English, nearly (10 lines = 1–15/16 in. In modern English 10 lines
-= 1⅞ in.).
-
-Used in the Jerome, Aretinus and Aegidius, with no other.
-
-The “upper case” (to use a modern expression) consisted of at least 16
-divisions, G, J, K, L, T, U, W, X, Y, Z not being used, and P seldom in
-the Jerome, H being there used for both H and P. This misuse is not
-found in the other two books. On the other hand there are two forms of
-C, E, N, and Q, both probably mixed in the same division. Q is in the
-Jerome almost always [reversed Q] (a peculiarity found in some
-ornamental MSS., from the convenience of extending the tail into the
-margin), in the Aretinus and Aegidius always Q: the letter is however
-identical in all three books, but being on a square body it is in the
-Jerome turned one quarter round.
-
- * * * * *
-
-The “lower case” consisted of at least 121 divisions. Of the simple
-unmodified letters k and z are wanting, and except in the Jerome j (but
-ij is found in all, colligated). There are two forms of p, r, and three
-of s, the two p’s and r’s being used indiscriminately, but the two s’s
-(final) and the ſ (initial and medial) having their proper use. Of
-colligated or modified letters there are at least eighty-three, and of
-other symbols eleven (for -et, &, con-, -us [two], id est, full stop,
-colon, ?). Of these 121 about 95 are common to all three. The signs of
-progress are as follows:—
-
-In the Jerome, contrasted with the other two, Q is except in two places
-[reversed Q], H is generally used as P, and I have not elsewhere noticed
-ḃ, or j used by itself. On the other hand in the two others, and not in
-the Jerome, are found an extra short t in which the perpendicular stroke
-hardly appears at all above the horizontal line, and eleven new forms,
-including fe, ff, and pp in colligation. The Q and P are rightly used,
-always.
-
-So too in the Jerome and Aretinus compared with the Aegidius we find
-that q is printed too high up, being in fact an inverted b, or, more
-accurately, an inverted broken h occasionally used for b. In the Jerome
-this is almost always the case, in the Aretinus as often as not, in the
-Aegidius hardly ever. It may be accidental that B and H and three minor
-modified letters are not found in the short Aegidius, that w (in wlt =
-vult) is only found in the Jerome, [·|·] (= id est) only in the
-Aretinus: but the occurrence of ؟ (= ?) and of printing in red ink
-_only_ in the Aegidius, is not insignificant.
-
-The relative order of the three may therefore be assumed to be as above
-indicated.
-
-
- _Origin of the type._
-
-It may be taken as certain that as Caxton’s type is based on Bruges
-models, so the first Oxford type is ultimately derived from Cologne.
-Ulric Zel began printing there at least as early as 1466, and the
-general resemblance to his letters is clear. The likeness is still
-nearer when we follow Zel’s influence on Arnold ther Hoernen (Cologne,
-from 1470), Richard Paffroet of Cologne (Deventer, from 1477), and
-especially a little-known Cologne printer named Gerard ten Raem de
-Bercka, whose only dated book is of 1478. John of Westphalia (Alost and
-Louvain, from 1473) and Jacobus de Breda, a successor of Paffroet at
-Deventer, also supply similarities. In the case of Gerard we actually
-find, besides a close general similarity, the same misuse of H as P.
-Unfortunately no works printed by him, except the dated ©Modus
-Confitendi© and an undated ©Aesopus©, are at present known, so that it
-must not be assumed that 1478 is his earliest or only date.
-
-It is at present also unsafe to assume that Theodoricus Rood of Cologne
-who printed at Oxford in 1481–85 was the first Oxford printer, or ever
-used type no. 1.
-
-
- _Type_ 2 (1480?-1482).
-
-Character:—Narrow Dutch Black.
-
-Body:—English, nearly (10 lines = just less than 2 in.).
-
-Used in the Cicero (1480?: by itself), Latin Grammar (1481?: by itself),
-Ales (1481: chiefly, but with no. 3), and Latteburius (1482: chiefly,
-but with no. 3).
-
-The “upper case” consisted of 22 letters (J, K, U, W omitted).
-
- * * * * *
-
-The “lower case” consisted of at least 131 divisions. Of the simple
-letters j only occurs in colligation with i (as ij), and there are two
-forms of r, s (s, ſ) and y. There are about 93 colligated or modified
-letters.
-
-Unfortunately it is very difficult to institute a close comparison of
-the use of letters, so as to establish a proper order of the books, in
-consequence of the fragmentary state of the Milo and the Latin Grammar.
-The Milo can be clearly separated from the rest: the type is _spaced_,
-so that 10 lines = between 2–9/16 and 2¾ in., and ( ), ؟ (= ?), | (=
-comma) are found in it alone. In fact, but for the closest resemblance
-of actual type, the Milo would have to be regarded as printed elsewhere:
-and it cannot yet be said to be quite certainly printed at Oxford. The
-Ales and Latteburius are hardly to be distinguished in the use of type,
-but I have observed w only in the Latteburius and Grammar.
-
-The origin of the type is probably to be looked for near Cologne, from
-whence came Theodoricus Rood, the avowed printer of the Ales, and where
-a Theodoricus, who may probably be identified with Rood, printed in
-1485–6 in a type smaller than, but similar to, the present one. The
-narrow stilted look of the letters and the semicircular sweep in front
-of the A are noticeable features. Henry Bradshaw detected a similarity
-between this type and that of Arnold ther Hoernen at Cologne.
-
-
- _Type_ 3 (1481–1485).
-
-Character:—Heading and initial Black, a large special type.
-
-Body:—2-line English, nearly (10 lines = 4 in. -, 10 lines of 2-line
-English = 3¾ in. +).
-
-Used only in the Ales (1481) and Latteburius (1482) (for the beginnings
-of chapters), in the Lyndewoode (1483?: head lines) and the Phalaris
-(1485: one line).
-
-The type is too sparsely used to enable us to describe the extent of the
-fount: but F, G, J, j, K, k, v, W, w, X, Y, Z, z are not found: I and g
-have two forms each; s, ſ are found; V is only used for the number five;
-and nine modified or conjoined letters occur. The peculiarity of the
-letters is a slipped or detached upper corner in B, L, N, which is found
-in 1506 in Quentell’s printing at Cologne, and may be compared with a
-smaller form used by Jean Veldener at Culenburg in 1484.
-
-
- _Type_ 4 (1483?-1485?).
-
-Character:—Small Dutch Black.
-
-Body:—Pica, nearly (10 lines = 1–11/16 + in., 10 lines in Pica = 1–11/16
-– in.).
-
-This is the small type of the Anwykyll and Lyndewoode (both 1483?), the
-ordinary type of the Hampole, Logic, and Augustine (all 1483?), and the
-small type of the Lyndewoode (1483?), and is used in the Textus
-Alexandri (1485?). It is in many details similar to type 2, but may be
-readily distinguished by the o being broad and round in type 4, instead
-of narrow and oval as in type 2. There are two forms of S in type 4, and
-only one in type 2. The capitals are identical with those of type 6.
-
-The fount consisted of 25 capitals (J, V, W wanting, but two forms of D,
-S), 27 small letters (z wanting, but r, s double) and at least 95
-modified or conjoined letters, in all not less than 147 types. Seven of
-the last class appear to be peculiar to the Logic, which may therefore
-be the latest of the group.
-
-
- _Type_ 5 (1483–1486/7).
-
-Character:—Small Caxtonian Black.
-
-Body:—Great Primer, nearly (10 lines = 2–5/16 in., 10 lines of Great
-Primer = 2⅜ in.).
-
-This is the larger type of the Anwykyll, the largest but one (ordinary
-large) of the Lyndewoode, the largest of the Augustine (all 1483?), the
-ordinary one of the Phalaris (1485), is used in the Textus Alexandri
-(1485?), and is the small type of the Festial (1486). The capitals are
-identical with those of type 7.
-
-There are 19 capitals (J, K, V, W, X, Y, Z wanting) and 28 small letters
-(j, z wanting, but d, g, r, s double), and at least 44 modified or
-conjoined letters, five of which seem to be peculiar to the Festial, as
-is also the use of k. In all there were not less than 91 types.
-
-
- _Type_ 6 (1483?).
-
-Character:—Large Dutch Black, a Church type going with no. 4.
-
-Body:—Pica, nearly (as no. 4).
-
-This is the larger type of the Hampole, the larger type (two half lines
-only) of the Logic, the larger type imbedded in the small type of the
-Lyndewoode, the intermediate type (one line) in the Augustine, and
-occurs in the Anwykyll (all 1483?). The capitals are identical with
-those of type 4.
-
-There are 22 capitals (J, K, V, W, Z wanting, but S double), 24 small
-letters (j, k, w, z wanting, but r, s double), and at least 16 modified
-or conjoined letters, in all not less than 62 types. Eight of the
-modified letters appear to be peculiar to the Hampole.
-
-
- _Type_ 7 (1485?–1486/7).
-
-Character:—Large Caxtonian Black, a Church type going with no. 5.
-
-Body:—Great Primer, nearly (as no. 5).
-
-This is used in the Textus Alexandri (1485?) and is the large type of
-the Festial (1486/7). The capitals are identical with those of type 5.
-
-To judge from the Festial, there are 18 capitals (J, K, R, V, W, X, Y, Z
-not being used), 24 small letters (k, w, y, z not found, but r, s
-double), and at least 9 modified letters, 51 in all.
-
-
- WATERMARKS.
-
-At present the study of watermarks has not reached a stage at which they
-are able to contribute scientific proofs of high importance, nor will
-any proof be ever deducible from them except the earliest possible
-occurrence of an undated issue, although probabilities of concurrent
-printing may be arrived at. Only some plain facts, therefore, will be
-stated with respect to their occurrence in the early Oxford books.
-
-If we take the first group (the Jerome, Aretinus and Aegidius), we find
-no less than 26, out of a total of 50. The Rufinus has seven (two shared
-with the others, one shared with the Aretinus only, one shared with the
-Latteburius, and three peculiar to itself). The Aretinus has 22, most of
-which are found in the later groups, but eight are peculiar to itself.
-The Aegidius has two only, common to the group.
-
-In the second group (Cicero, Ales, Latteburius, Latin Grammar) there
-appear to be 28, of which four are common to all the groups, one is
-shared only with group one, seven only with group three, and sixteen are
-peculiar.
-
-In the third group 38 occur, four of which are common to all the groups,
-nine are shared with the first alone, seven with the second alone, and
-eighteen are peculiar.
-
-
- SEPARATE BOOKS.
-
-
- 1. ¬Jerome¬ (“1468,” see p. 1).
-
-The treatise of Tyrannius Rufinus on the Apostles’ Creed, here ascribed
-to St. Jerome, was undoubtedly the first product of the Oxford press. It
-bears the date of 17 December, 1468, as the day on which the printing
-was finished. The colophon is clearly printed and bears no mark of
-haste, nor does it show the smallest trace of alteration in any of the
-copies seen by the present writer. Saturday is a reasonable day on which
-to conclude a work. A facsimile of the colophon is given in plate II.
-
-Unfortunately for the peace of the bibliographer two spectres have
-haunted this book, one of which “pulveris exigui jactu” has been laid,
-but the other is not yet gone, although there is a prospect of ultimate
-eviction.
-
-
- I. THE CORSELLIS FORGERY.
-
-In 1664 Richard Atkyns, a Gloucestershire gentleman of some position,
-and educated at Balliol, issued a book, the title of which sets forth
-with unusual clearness the object of the volume:—“The Original and
-Growth of Printing: Collected Out of History, and the _Records_ of this
-Kingdome. Wherein is also Demonstrated, That Printing appertaineth to
-the _Prerogative Royal_; and is a Flower of the _Crown_ of _England_. By
-Richard Atkyns, _Esq_:” (London, printed by John Streater, for the
-Author, MDCLXIV: quarto: pp. [12] + 24). Atkyns’s object was to
-recommend himself to Charles II’s attention by proving that printing was
-a royal privilege: and for this it was very desirable that there should
-be evidence of the introduction of the art into England under royal
-protection. The testimony of Stowe—corroborated by Howell—that “William
-Caxton of London, Mercer,” introduced it in 1471, was unsuitable.
-Atkyns, however, came upon a copy of the “1468” Oxford book, and “the
-same most worthy Person who trusted me with the aforesaid Book, did also
-present me with the Copy of a Record and Manuscript in _Lambeth_-House,
-heretofore in his Custody, belonging to the See (and not to any
-particular Arch-Bishop of _Canterbury_); the substance whereof was this
-(though I hope, for publique satisfaction, the Record it self, in its
-due time, will appear).” Then ensues the following story:—
-
- _Thomas Bourchier_, Arch-Biſhop of _Canterbury_, moved the then King
- (_Hen._ the 6th) to uſe all poſſible means for procuring a
- Printing-Mold (for ſo ’twas there called) to be brought into this
- Kingdom; the King (a good Man, and much given to Works of this Nature)
- readily hearkned to the Motion; and taking private Advice, how to
- effect His Deſign, concluded it could not be brought about without
- great Secrecy, and a conſiderable Sum of Money given to ſuch Perſon or
- Perſons, as would draw off ſome of the Workmen from _Harlein_ in
- _Holland_, where _John Cuthenberg_ had newly invented it, and was
- himſelf perſonally at Work: ’Twas reſolv’d, that leſs then one
- Thouſand Marks would not produce the deſir’d Effect: Towards which
- Sum, the ſaid Arch-Biſhop preſented the King with Three Hundred Marks.
- The Money being now prepared, the Management of the Deſign was
- committed to Mr. _Robert Turnour_, who then was of the Roabs to the
- King, and a Perſon moſt in Favour with Him, of any of his Condition:
- Mr. _Turnour_ took to his Aſſiſtance Mr. _Caxton_, a Citizen of good
- Abilities, who Trading much into _Holland_, might be a Creditable
- Pretence, as well for his going, as ſtay in the _Low Countries_: Mr.
- _Turnour_ was in Diſguiſe (his Beard and Hair ſhaven quite off) but
- Mr. _Caxton_ appeared known and publique. They having received the
- ſaid Sum of One Thouſand Marks, went firſt to _Amſterdam_, then to
- _Leyden_, not daring to enter _Harlein_ it ſelf; for the Town was very
- jealous, having impriſoned and apprehended divers Perſons, who came
- from other Parts for the ſame purpoſe: They ſtaid till they had ſpent
- the whole One Thouſand Marks in Gifts and Expences: So as the King was
- fain to ſend Five Hundred Marks more, Mr. _Turnour_ having written to
- the King, that he had almoſt done his Work; a Bargain (as he ſaid)
- being ſtruck betwixt him and two _Hollanders_, for bringing off one of
- the Work men, who ſhould ſufficiently diſcover and teach this New Art:
- At laſt, with much ado, they got off one of the Under-Workmen, whoſe
- Name was _Frederick Corſells_ (or rather _Corſellis_), who late one
- Night ſtole from his Fellows in Diſguiſe, into a Veſſel prepared
- before for that purpoſe; and ſo the Wind (favouring the Deſign)
- brought him ſafe to _London_.
-
- ’Twas not thought ſo prudent, to ſet him on Work at _London_, (but by
- the Arch-Biſhops meanes, who had been Vice-Chancellor, and afterwards
- Chancellor of the Univerſity of _Oxon_) _Corſellis_ was carryed with a
- Guard to _Oxon_; which Guard conſtantly watch’d, to prevent
- _Corſellis_ from any poſſible Escape, till he had made good his
- Promiſe, in teaching how to Print: So that at _Oxford_ Printing was
- firſt ſet up in _England_, which was before there was any
- Printing-Press, or Printer, in _France_, _Spain_, _Italy_, or
- _Germany_, (except the City of _Mentz_) which claimes Seniority, as to
- Printing, even of _Harlein_ it ſelf, calling her City, _Urbem
- Maguntinam Artis Tipographicæ Inventricem primam_, though ’tis known
- to be otherwiſe, that City gaining that Art by the Brother of one of
- the Workmen of _Harlein_, who had learnt it at Home of his Brother,
- and after ſet up for himſelf at _Mentz_.
-
- This Preſs at _Oxon_ was at leaſt ten years before there was any
- Printing in _Europe_ (except at _Harlein_, and _Mentz_) where alſo it
- was but new born. This Preſs at _Oxford_, was afterwards found
- inconvenient, to be the ſole Printing-place of _England_, as being too
- far from _London_, and the Sea: Whereupon the King ſet up a Preſs at
- St. _Albans_, and another in the Abby of _Weſtminster_, where they
- Printed ſeveral Bookes of Divinity and Phyſick, (for the King, for
- Reaſons beſt known to himſelf and Council) permitted then no Law-Books
- to be Printed; nor did any Printer exerciſe that ART, but onely ſuch
- as were the Kings ſworn Servants; the King himſelf having the Price
- and Emolument for Printing Books.
-
- Printing thus brought into _England_, was moſt Graciouſly received by
- the King, and moſt cordially entertained by the Church, the Printers
- having the Honour to be ſworn the King’s Servants, and the Favour to
- Lodge in the very Boſome of the Church; as in _Weſtminſter_, St.
- _Albans_, _Oxon_, &c.
-
-As no one believes in this story it is not worth while to do more than
-to point out that no corroboration of it has ever been found, (much less
-the original record discovered), that Henry VI was deposed 4 March
-1460/1, and that the type shows no resemblance to that of Haarlem. Nor
-does the rest of the book concern us. The tale, however, in the absence
-of contradiction, obtained some vogue, so that we find for instance in
-Layer Marney church in Essex some such inscription as the following
-“Præ-missus, non amissus, Nicolas Corsellis Armiger Dominus hujus
-manerii hic requiescit, hâc vitâ ad meliorem commigratus Anno D 1674 Die
-Octobris 19^o.
-
- Artem typographi miratam Belgicus Anglis
- Corsellis docuit, Regis prece munere victus.
- Hic fuit extremis mercator cognitus Indis:
- Incola jam cælis, virtus sua famaque vivent.
-
-Johannes Corsellis ejus Executor & Consanguineus hoc monumentum posuit.”
-The Corsellis family came from Flanders in the 17th century. There is no
-question that this clumsy forgery of Atkyns has had its effect in
-befogging the subject to which it relates, and has predisposed critics
-to suspect the date of the first Oxford book.
-
-
- II. THE DISPUTED DATE, “1468.”
-
-The first who threw doubt on the recorded date of the Jerome was Conyers
-Middleton in his ©Dissertation on the origin of Printing© published in
-1735, and since then the opinion that 1468 is an error for 1478 (an X
-having dropped out of “MCCCCLXXVIII”) has steadily gained ground with
-the advance of critical methods, until authorities like Bradshaw and
-Blades and Duff have come to regard the question as settled. The only
-two separate and formal defences of the date (not counting incidental
-passages in books) are a MS. in the Guildhall Library in London, in a
-volume of Stukeley’s ©Palæographia Britannica© marked B. 2. 1, perhaps
-written in about 1770, and S. W. Singer’s ©Some Account of the book
-printed at Oxford in MCCCCLXVIII© (London, 1812, 50 copies for private
-distribution), a work which the author subsequently called in as far as
-he was able. In the former the arguments are of a general character,
-such as that if, as Middleton asserted, the King had not leisure to
-attend to such matters during Civil War, the archbishop _had_, and that
-Caxton’s silence counts for nothing in the general obscurity which
-surrounds the earliest printing presses. The Corsellis story is
-accepted. Singer is more scientific, as befits the later date, and
-adduces several of the technical arguments which may still be used.
-
-It is now time to state the present aspect of the dispute, and to
-ascertain how far the date “1468” is not only dubious but untenable. The
-arguments against the date may be stated in presumed order of their
-cogency, with the remarks on the other side which they severally
-suggest.
-
-
- 1. _The presence of Signatures._
-
-The Jerome presents to our eyes the ordinary signatures to which we are
-accustomed in fifteenth-century books, that is to say the marks a j, a
-ij, a iij, a iiij on the recto of each of the four leaves which form the
-first half of the sections of eight leaves (sixteen pages) of which the
-book is generally composed. These are placed just below the last letters
-of the printed page, close under them. Now the earliest known book with
-a date in which signatures elsewhere occur in this developed form is an
-©Expositio Decalogi©, by Johannes Nider, printed at Cologne by Koelhoff
-in 1472, the next being a Cologne book by F. de Platea in 1474. The
-argument is that it is extremely unlikely that an isolated printer in a
-provincial town in England should make such a discovery and advance, and
-that the next similar book should be a German one four years later[9].
-
-What may be called the common ground of the discussion on this point is
-well explained in Blades’s ©Books in Chains© (Lond. 1892), pp. 85–122,
-in a paper on Signatures. He shows that the idea of signatures in
-manuscripts is as old as books themselves, but that in manuscripts the
-marks, being in writing and intended for the binder’s eye alone, were
-naturally, as a rule, at the foot or corner of the page, and often cut
-off in the process of binding. When printing came in, the obvious
-difficulty was to print marks so far from the rest of the printed page
-as to be cut off in binding. This difficulty was met in two ways: either
-the signatures were _written in_ at the extreme foot (from 1462?), or
-the signatures were stamped on by hand with single types (from 1473?).
-Some printers, however, did manage by care to print signatures far from
-the text (1474 on?). Ultimately in a single case in 1472 and with
-increasing frequency from 1474 printers found that the essential
-ugliness of printed signatures close to the page was counterbalanced by
-the utility and convenience of the change, and our modern system was
-begun.
-
-Now, it must be constantly remembered that the entire weight of disproof
-lies with those who dispute the printed date. This is why it is simply
-amusing to read Blades’s sage words on the subject of this 1472 book
-with normal printed signatures. He is pledged to renounce the Oxford
-date, but he finds it awkward that there _is_ an isolated book of 1472
-in precisely the same category—with the same want of precedent, the same
-absence of imitators, the same forlorn appearance. Observe how he deals
-with it (p. 116 of the book above cited):—“This is a puzzling book, for
-it is at least two years earlier than any other book so signed. In this
-city, too. [i. e. Lübeck[10]] many works were issued with MS. signatures
-with a later date than this. It is dangerous to assert that a book is
-wrongly dated because you cannot make it fit into a bibliographical
-theory; but I feel inclined, from the general aspect of the book, to
-date it as 1482, rather than 1472.” And yet a very high authority on
-typography assures me that the book is _undoubtedly_ of 1472! What then
-prevents the tentative and isolated experiment of Cologne from having a
-similar tentative and isolated forerunner, even at Oxford? We may
-remember too that in the infancy of printing it was common to detect
-errors as the book went through the press, and often the printer himself
-corrected an error with his pen, as in the colophon of the Aegidius (see
-p. 1). Or a reader would do the same. But it is believed that in no copy
-of the Jerome is there any attempt to correct or even throw suspicion on
-the date. There is the date, plain and detailed, and it is allowable to
-wait for scientific proof before it is abandoned. _A priori_
-considerations have force, but they are liable to sudden overthrow.
-
-Clearly the consideration of signatures alone cannot avail to disprove
-the date of the Jerome. But much more remains.
-
-
- 2. _Signs of progress._
-
-It is said that, if we consider the interval between 1468 and 1479, we
-shall reasonably expect definite signs of progress. On the contrary, the
-first three Oxford books are printed with the same type, with similar
-signatures, with the same sized page and the same number of lines in a
-column. “In fact,” says Blades in the ©Antiquary©, vol. iii, no. 13,
-Jan. 1881, in an article on ©The First Printing Press at Oxford©, “if a
-leaf of one was extracted and inserted in another it would,
-typographically, excite no remark.” _Natura nihil facit per saltum_, and
-we are accustomed to apply the idea of evolution and development to
-every art and trade. It is asserted also that there is no other case of
-the cessation of a press for over ten years. But cessation of printing
-for such a time is not unknown. No book was produced at Bamberg between
-1462 and 1480, or at Caen between 1480 and 1500, or at Brussels between
-1484 and 1500, or at Haarlem for some years after 1486, or at Saragossa
-after 1475 till 1485? Moreover the only early printing known at
-Tavistock is two books in 1525 and 1534. The _same type_ and _identical
-woodcuts_ are found in the two, with an interval of nine years. And
-where there is cessation, it is obvious that we may be content with
-fewer signs of advance when work is resumed at the same press with the
-same type, than if the activity had been continuous, or if the
-instruments were changed.
-
-But this question of progress is a plain issue. Are there no signs of
-advance in the two later books compared with the earlier one?
-
-The first book often has an unevenness at the right-hand edge of a
-column (in 28 pages out of 84). In the other two it is always perfectly
-even[11]. Again, the Jerome starts printing on sign. a 1, whereas the
-other two start with a blank leaf, the printing beginning on a 2. Again,
-in the Jerome there is a peculiar misuse of the capitals H and Q (see p.
-241), not found in the following books. And lastly, to omit smaller
-matters, there is the decided and important fact that whereas in the
-Jerome each page was printed separately, in the Aegidius and Aretinus
-two pages were printed at a time.
-
-
- 3. _The Type._
-
-Of the palmary arguments against the date, one still remains. The first
-Oxford type presents a remarkable similarity to that used by Gerard ten
-Raem de Bercka (see p. 242), and his only dated book at present known is
-of 1478. There is certainly a real connexion between the two founts, but
-we know so extremely little of this printer that it is at present unsafe
-to base any conclusion on his work. The typographical genealogy of the
-early printers of the Netherlands and Germany has not yet been fully
-drawn out, and of the 1478 ©Modus Confitendi© (Hain 11455), which is
-here in question, only two copies _with the date_ are known, one in the
-John Rylands (Spencer) library at Manchester and one on the continent.
-On this point we shall doubtless know more in time, but at present we
-are bound to suspend our judgment.
-
-
- 4. _Mistakes of date common._
-
-There are two subsidiary considerations left. One is that mistakes of
-date in colophons are not uncommon. An edition of Aeneas Sylvius’s
-©Epistolae© (Cologne, printed by Koelhoff) is dated MCCCCLXVIII, which
-is stated to be an error for 1478, and an ©Opusculum de componendis
-versibus© by Mataratius, printed at Venice, is also believed to be
-erroneously dated 1468 for 1478. Caxton’s edition of Gower’s ©Confessio
-Amantis© is dated 1493 instead of 1483. I have noticed the following
-additional errors affecting dates before 1501:—720 for 1720, 1061 for
-1601, 1099 for 1499, 1334 for 1734, 1400 for 1490 or 1500, 1444 for
-1494, 1461 for 1471, 1461 for 1641, 1462 for 1472, 1472 for 1482.
-
-There is no doubt therefore that a mistake of date in an early book has
-many parallels, and so far the improbability of it happening in other
-books is diminished. At the same time one would expect the first
-printers in a place of learning to be careful enough, even if an initial
-blunder of this magnitude were committed, to correct it in some copies
-before issue. It is of course conceivable that the date was deliberately
-falsified, to avoid expected unpleasant consequences of being found
-_flagrante delicto_, but this hypothesis may be left to be dealt with
-when some one maintains it.
-
-
- 5. _Books bound with the Jerome._
-
-There remains a consideration of some weight. Until this century it was
-common to bind together several books (not merely pamphlets) in one
-volume. What books have been found in the same binding with the “1468”
-volume? Four copies of the Jerome are, or are known to have been, bound
-with several other treatises (see p. 252). One is bound with (and
-before) the Aretinus of 1479, and it is interesting that though a few
-leaves of modern paper now separate them there is an offset of the first
-page of the Aretinus on the last page of the Jerome, showing that the
-Aretinus was bound with the Jerome before the former was entirely dry.
-No conclusion however about the date of the Jerome can be drawn from
-this and whatever presumption of synchronism might be raised is removed
-by the fact that the well defined stains at the end of the Jerome and
-beginning of the Aretinus do _not_ run from the one to the other. A
-second copy was bound with seven others, only two of which are dated,
-1478 and (the Oxford Aegidius) 1479: one of the undated is about 1485
-(Perottus). A third copy was bound with four preceding treatises, of
-which the only dated one was the first, the Oxford Aegidius of 1479. A
-fourth has five pieces with it, the first two of which are of about
-1480, the Jerome is third, the fourth is of 1485, the fifth is undated,
-and the last is of 1486 or 1487.
-
-Clearly we are on very unsafe ground when we base any conclusion on
-these companion treatises, and our hesitation is not lessened when we
-notice that the only copy of the ©Vulgaria Terentii© (Oxf., not later
-than 1483) which is bound with other treatises, occurs after books dated
-1488 and 1486, the rest being without a date.
-
-
- 6. _First printing in Europe._
-
-The following list of places and dates will show how far it is likely,
-if we turn from facts to probabilities, that Oxford should have started
-printing in 1468. Only the first two towns of each country are given,
-with the exception of England: and the claim of Oxford is purposely
-ignored.
-
- 1. Germany (Mainz, not after 1454: Strassburg, before 1460: Cologne
- began not later than 1466).
-
- 2. Italy (Subiaco, 1465: Rome, 1467).
-
- 3. Switzerland (Basel, not after 1468: Beromünster, 1470).
-
- 4. France (Paris, 1470: Lyon, not after 1473).
-
- 5. Netherlands (Utrecht, about 1471–3: Alost, 1473).
-
- 6. Austro-Hungary (Buda-Pesth, 1473: Trient, 1475).
-
- 7. Spain (Valencia, 1474: Saragossa, 1475).
-
- 8. England (Westminster, 1477: Oxford, 1478: St. Alban’s, 1480
- [1479?]: London, 1480).
-
- 9. Denmark (Odensee, 1482: Schleswig, 1486).
-
- 10. Sweden (Stockholm, 1483: Wadsten, 1495).
-
- 11. Portugal (Lisbon, 1489: Leiria, 1492).
-
- 12. Montenegro (Cettinje, 1494).
-
- * * * * *
-
-It is hoped that the above summary statement of the arguments for and
-against the date of the Jerome will serve to make the present position
-of the question clear. What general conclusion can be arrived at before
-further facts are discovered? Caxton, who began to print in England in
-1477, nowhere claims to have introduced printing into England. Is it
-still conceivable that Oxford preceded Westminster by nine years? The
-answer is that it is still conceivable, but not probable. The ground has
-been slowly and surely giving way beneath the defenders of the Oxford
-date, in proportion to the advance of our knowledge of early printing,
-and all that can be said is that it has not yet entirely slipped away.
-All the new contributions to the argument and all the chief
-bibliographers are against it, while no fresh defending forces are in
-sight. But it is still allowable to assert that the destructive
-arguments, even if we admit their cumulative cogency, do not at the
-present time amount to proof.
-
-In the venerable building at the north-east corner of St. Mary’s Church
-at Oxford—the old House of Congregation, which, though once the cradle
-of the University,
-
- Nunc situs informis premit et deserta vetustas—
-
-there is still a single tenant, feebly holding his ground and refusing
-to be evicted. He wears the form of King Alfred and bears a legend
-beneath, telling us boldly that he founded the University[12]. The
-clamour of disputation never reaches that silent room, the changes of
-centuries have disregarded it, and it remains the one place where a
-belief which cast a lustre of royalty over early Oxford, and to this day
-gives primacy to one of the oldest colleges, is still maintained without
-contradiction. The figure neither utters nor listens to argument: it
-asserts and chooses to assert. But the spirit of the age is at the door:
-St. Mary’s is swathed in scaffolding: the sounds of trowel and saw
-penetrate through the dim glass and the cobwebs and all things become
-new. It is probable that the opening years of the twentieth century will
-see the age-worn bust of Alfred and the copy of the Oxford Jerome in the
-University archives consigned to a common flame as Impostors in an age
-of light.

-
-
- 2. ¬Aretinus¬ (1479, see p. 1).
-
-The reasons for placing this book second are given above at pp. 241–2:
-if they are regarded as sufficient, we must take “1479” in the Aegidius
-as what we should call 1480, which is in agreement with the ordinary
-usage of the time and which gains a slight probability, in that the
-printing would have been finished on a Sunday, if the year were taken as
-1478/9. All copies are poorly printed. It was quite fitting that the
-first book printed at Oxford should be theological and the second the
-Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle.

- 2. Bodleian. Perfect. In this copy at o 2^r and o 2^v is a ć printed
- in the margin, apparently meaning “cancel,” since the recto is

-
-In this work the colophon is printed in red, the only instance of colour
-printing in the early Oxford press. The book is for some reason rarer
-than the two which precede. It is noticeable that in every known copy

-
- A copy was in the Harleian Library (Catal. vol. 3, no. 6674).
-
-
- 4. ¬Cicero, Pro Milone¬ (1480?, see p. 2).
-
-This is a puzzling book. The type so closely resembles Oxford type that
-every bibliographer has accepted it provisionally as identical. Yet it
-exhibits spaced type, it uses / for a comma (both points unique in
-Oxford printing), and the sections are made up in sixes. It is also by
-many years the first classic printed in England, the next being a
-Terence in 1497. The volume probably consisted of a—e in sixes, allowing
-a leaf blank at the beginning: perhaps section e was in eight. The first
-half of each section bears signatures. The book was clearly made up of
-half quarto sheets, three to each section. Mr. Blades was of opinion
-that the type was more worn than that of the Ales: and Mr. E. G. Duff
-thinks that the spacing and other peculiarities point to a later date
-than 1480.
-
- Fragments known:—b 3–4, c 3–4 are in the Bodleian (Auct. R. supra 3),
- having been presented by Sir William H. Cope in 1872. They were
- fly leaves in a volume containing five treatises dated from 1491
- to 1505, probably bound in Oxford for William Cope (d. 1513) who
- lived near Banbury. Also c 1–2, 5–6 are in Merton College Library,
- Oxford, among some loose printed fragments.
-
-
- 5. ¬Latin Grammar¬ (1481?, see p. 2).
-
-This is only known from two leaves in the British Museum, acquired in
-1872 or late in 1871, which were found in the binding of a book, which
-in the sixteenth cent. belonged to Nicholas Browere. It is a Latin
-grammar in English, the examples of which connect its composition with
-Oxford (e. g. “I goo to grammer att Oxforde Incumbo grammatice Oxonij,”
-“Y go to Oxforde Eo Oxonium vel ad Oxonium.”) From letters in the
-©Athenaeum©, 4 and 11 Nov. 1871, and notes in the book, it appears that
-the author might be John Anwykyll (see p. 257) and that it is probably
-not by Holt or Stanbridge. The chain lines run across the page: but it
-is at present impossible to say whether the sections were in sixes or
-eights. Marked C. 33. i. 10.
-
-
- 6. ¬Ales¬ (1481, see p. 2).
-
-The woodcut border which is found in some copies of the Ales and
-Latteburius is the earliest found in English printing, though Caxton
-uses woodcut engravings in the text (for the first time) in the same
-year. It consists of birds and flowers grouped on long winding stems,
-the four pieces which form the border measuring in all not less than 11¼
-× 7¾ in. (no quite intact copy is known, the binder’s ruthless knife
-invariably removing a portion). A full-size reproduction of it is given
-in E. G. Duff’s ©Facsimiles of English types© (Lond. 1895).

- on 54 leaves (representing 108) F. H.: on 31, Hawkyns or Haukins:
- on 8, Alison: on 3, J. Alexander (Alysaunder): probably some other
- signings are cut off. A comparison of two sets of similar markings
- in other books almost establishes the fact that these names do not
- represent revisers of the printing, but dimply the owners of the

- 8. ¬Anwykyll¬ (1483?, see p. 3).
-
-Four of the chief English grammarians of the 16th century were connected
-with Magdalen College Grammar School at Oxford. The first master was
-John Anwykyll (1481?-87); the first usher and second master was John
-Stanbridge (1481?-88, 1488–94, _d._ 1510); John Holte, the author of the
-©Lac Puerorum©, was master; and Robert Whittington was Stanbridge’s
-pupil at the school. Dean Colet, William Lily and Cardinal Wolsey were
-also members of Magdalen (see Bloxam’s ©Register of Magdalen College©,
-iii., ad init.). Of the Latin Grammar in Latin which is now before us
-and has been assigned with probability by Bradshaw to Anwykyll, no
-complete copy is known, but it was reprinted at Deventer in 1489. The
-©Vulgaria Terentii© occurs also separately, and consists of sentences
-from Terence with English translation.
-
-There appear to be two different editions of this Grammar (not
-Vulgaria), for it can be shown that the Cambridge fragments are not of
-the same edition as the Bodleian book. Not only, for instance, are the
-contents of sign. h 3 in each entirely different, but the signatures
-themselves are in different type, and in the Corpus (Cambridge) fragment
-the signature is n 3, and yet it belongs to the Compendium and not the
-Vulgaria. The height of the printed page also varies considerably, and
-the width of the Vulgaria pages is less than that of the Grammar. The
-subject needs further investigation.
-

-
-The computation of the date by Olympiads is very uncommon, in early
-printed books: it is however the most ancient classical method. Each
-Olympiad is a period of four years, and the first is computed to have
-commenced in July, B. C. 776: so that July A. D. 1 corresponded with the
-beginning of Olympiad 195. The computation ceased for practical purposes
-in A. D. 395, and the present revival is of an artificial kind, in which
-the expression “every fifth year,” which by a Greek could be applied to
-an Olympiad (Πενταετηρίς), was taken in its ordinary sense and used for
-computation. Thus “in the 297th Olympiad from the birth of Christ” was
-in the present book taken to represent (297 × 5 =) A. D. 1485. A similar
-use is found in the 1472 (Venice) edition of the Epigrams of
-Ausonius[13]. But the 1494 (Parma) edition of the Declamations of
-Quintilian contains a futile attempt to use the ancient method, for it
-was printed “Olympiade quingentesima sexagesima octaua qui est annus a
-salute christiana M.cccc.xciiii quinto non. Iul.”, whereas it would
-properly have been 1493. And M. A. Giry (©Manuel de Diplomatique©, 1894,
-p. 96) records an unintelligible attempt to use this computation in a
-deed of 1102.

-
-Printed in “1486,” “on the day aftir Seint Edward the kyng”: which would
-seem to be March 19, 1486/7. This book is distinguished by the
-occurrence of many woodcut engravings, and by the use of a woodcut
-capital G (52 times). This latter is the only woodcut letter used in the
-early Oxford Press (see Bradshaw in the ©Communications© of the
-Cambridge Antiquarian Society, iii. 136). In the same paper (p. 138)
-Bradshaw suggests that the eleven large cuts were perhaps intended for
-an edition of the Golden Legend, and that the five smaller ones belong
-to a lost Oxford Primer on Horae. The text is nearer to that of Caxton’s
-second issue (1491) than of his first (1483). The two sets of woodcuts
-are as follows:—
-
-
- _Larger kind_ (general size, about 4½ × 4½–5½ in.).
-
- 1. ( ) Woodcut of the Crucifixion, laid sideways.
- 1^r.
-
- 2. ( ) Woodcut of St. Christopher bearing Christ, beneath a canopy.

- _Ædes Althorpianæ_).

-
-The prints are rude in execution, the foliage of trees being generally
-indicated simply by horizontal lines (as in a French ©Ortus Sanitatis©
-of about 1485). The shoes, sword-scabbards, and the like are often
-entirely black, showing that the cuts were intended to be coloured by
-hand. They appear to be entirely unknown elsewhere. See plate V.

-The Printing Press at Oxford ceases its work suddenly in 1486/7, and
-there is no reason for this stop at present known. The printing at St.

-1486 in a type similar to that of the Ales and Latteburius. In this case

-
-From December 1517 to February “1519” (1519/20?) a printing press is
-found in work at Oxford in St. John’s Street near Merton College,
-connected in 1518 with the name of Johannes Scolar and in the last book
-with the name of Carolus Kyrfoth. Both of these appear to be foreigners,
-but nothing certain has yet been discovered about them or the causes of
-the establishment and cessation of the press[14]. In 1524 none of these
-names occurs among the inhabitants of Oxford paying taxes (Oxf. Hist.
-Soc., ©City Documents©, ed. by J. E. T. Rogers, 1891, p. 5): nor are
-they otherwise known in Oxford as booksellers or stationers. Although
-Scolar uses the arms of the University (their earliest occurrence in
-print), yet the Registers of the University almost entirely ignore the
-fact that for the second time the greatest literary invention since
-speech and writing were known, was silently at work in its midst. Three
-of the books were however issued “Cum Privilegio.” It is peculiar that
-whereas theology claimed a fair proportion of the first press, it is
-entirely absent from the second; grammar, logic, arithmetic, natural
-science, and the Ethics of Aristotle being alone represented, except
-that one broadside consists of a Prognostication, which Dorne’s lists in
-1520 show to have been a popular form of literature in Oxford at that
-time. All are in small quarto, and similar in the types used, namely an
-English and Brevier black-letter, with a Great Primer for titles. Not
-only at Oxford but also at Cambridge, York, Tavistock, and Abingdon, in
-all of which there was an early 16th cent. press, printing entirely
-ceases for nearly the central forty years of that century.

-Footnote 14:
-
- In 1528 we find a John Scolar, probably identical with the Oxford
- printer, printing a Breviary at Abingdon near Oxford for the use of
- the Abbey.

- APPENDIX C.
- A CHRONOLOGICAL LIST OF PERSONS AND PROCEEDINGS CONNECTED WITH
- BOOK-PRODUCTION AT OXFORD, A.D. 1180–1640.
-
-
-Three districts in Oxford are associated with the early production of
-books.
-
-One is Bookbinders Bridge, which is still standing, namely the bridge
-which as one starts from close under the Castle in Titmouse Lane towards
-St. Thomas’s Church, crosses the second piece of water. The bridge was
-on the limits of Oseney Abbey and the neighbouring tenements were
-largely occupied by binders who worked for the Abbey. See Clark’s
-edition of Wood’s ©History of the City©, i. 433.
-
-Schidyard St., now Oriel St., is said to imply by its name that it was
-the locus schediasticorum, the place of writers on _schedae_ or sheets
-of paper. Certainly with St. John Baptist St. (now Merton St.) and Cat
-St., it was a great centre for scribes, illuminators, bookbinders, and
-the like. See Clark’s Wood, as above, i. 139, 175, 184.
-
-Also Cheney Lane, earlier St. Mildred’s Lane, and now Market St., was
-largely tenanted by the same class. See Clark’s Wood, i. 72.
-
-The stationarius (or virgifer) of the University was regularly appointed
-(see Clark’s ©Register of the University©, vol. ii, pt. 1, p. 261), and
-was generally employed to value the books of a scholar after death or
-sequestration.
-
-But these general facts require to be supplemented by the details which
-follow: with respect to which it must be remembered that many persons
-combined several of the trades here recorded, and that, for instance,
-the earliest printers always bound the books they produced.

- charter no. 125* (Turner’s Catal., p. 307). This tenement he left
- to the altar of St. Thomas the Martyr in St. Mary the Virgin’s
- church in 1349 (Wood’s ©City©, ed. A. Clark, ii. 22, from a copy
- of the will).
-

- (Boase’s ©Reg. Exon.©, 1st ed., p. 21).
-
- 1440. John Brown, stationer, in this year (cited by Heyner) may be the
- same as the one noted under 1403.
-

- of his name sells MS. Lincoln College, Latin 109, probably in
- Oxford (Coxe): on 7 Nov. 1444 he is mentioned in Anstey’s
- ©Munimenta Academica©, p. 741: in Apr. 1445 he values books in
- Oxford (_ibid._, p. 544): also in 1447–48 (_ibid._, pp. 565, 579,
- cf. 741) mentioned in the Treasurer’s accounts at Oriel, 1451–65:
- on 12 Apr. 1454 or ‘55 he sold MS. Magd. Coll. (Oxf.) 4 in Oxford

-
- 1445. John Coneley, illuminator: see 1439: he is bound to work for
- Godsond for one year from 8 Nov. 1445 for 4 marks and 10
- shillings.

- Chancellor for saying that the mayor and townsfolk were not under
- oath to respect the rights of the University (Anstey, ©Munimenta
- Academica©, p. 556).
-
- 1448. William Bedewyne, illuminator (“lymnour”), “late of Oxford,” St.
- Peter’s (Magd.).
-
- XVth cent. Willelmus Sengleton wrote MS. New College 127 (Coxe): he
- may be the Will. Singleton who was admitted B.A. in 1566/7
- (©Register of the Univ.©, vol. i., ed. Boase, p. 265).
-
- XVth cent. “Expliciunt Questiones ... scripte per Johannem de Almania
- sive de Kasterle, in usum ... Thome Grace, illic [sc. at Oxford]
- in artibus graduati,” in MS. Magd. Coll. (Oxf.) 162 (Coxe).
-
- 1450–64. In these years Willelmus Salomon “Leonensis diocesis” wrote
- the works of Hugo de Sancto Caro or Hugo Viennensis in Oxford for
- Roger Keys, who in 1469/70 presented them to Exeter College, where
- they are now MSS. 51–68 (Coxe).
-
- 1452. “Johannes Bokebyndere Oxoniæ” occurs in the will of dr. Richard
- Browne (Anstey’s ©Munimenta Academica©, p. 648).
-
- 1453. John Delle or Dolle, stationer, mentioned (©Register of the
- Univ.©, vol. i., ed. Boase, p. 20, “Delle”): and in 1454 (Anstey’s
- ©Munimenta Academica©, p. 741, “Dolle”). In 1454 his name occurs
- in Bodleian Oxford Charters 491 (Turner’s Catal., p. 351). He may
- be the same as John Dolle, bookbinder, who lived in Cat Street in
- 1424/5 (Boase’s ©Reg. Exon.©, 1894, p. 295).
-
- 1453. John Reynbold, a German, agreed at Oxford to write out three
- books of Duns Scotus on the Sentences (Bodl. MS. Ballard 46, fol.
- 70). He wrote several MSS. now at Balliol and Merton between 1451
- and 1464.
-
- 1459. June 17. Will. Bokebynder occurs as a witness in Oxford, when
- MS. Merton Coll. 135 was given to the College (Coxe). In the same
- year he is mentioned in Oxford Univ. Archives, box F, no. 28.
-
- 1467. British Museum MS. Royal 6 D II once bore the following
- interesting inscription, before it was re-bound, “Iste liber
- ligatus erat Oxonii, in Catstrete, ad instantiam Reverendi Domini
- Thome Wybarun in sacra Theologia Bacalarii Monachi Roffensis, Anno
- Domini 1467” (see Casley’s ©Catalogue of the Manuscripts of the
- Kings Library© (1734), Dibdin’s ©Bibliographical Decameron©
- (1817), ii. 449: the volume contains the Letters of St. Jerome,
- and had been given to Rochester by Benedict, bp. of Rochester,
- _d._ 1226).
-

-
-
- ©The Praise of Music© (1586).
-
-This work is probably not by John Case, although constantly attributed
-to him. The facts of the matter may be stated as follows.
-
-The book is strictly anonymous: all that can be gathered directly from
-it is that the author was himself an enthusiastic musician, though not
-necessarily of eminence; that he was a well-read scholar, as well in the
-Fathers as in the Classics, and that his style and method point to a man
-of imaginative mind, young in years, and with considerable elegance of
-thought and expression. The printer writes a dedication to Sir Walter
-Raleigh, alluding to the book as “an Orphan of one of Lady Musickes
-children.” This can only be meant to convey the impression that the
-author was dead: on the other hand the treatise can only have been
-composed recently from the allusions to the controversy about Church
-music: in fact the author was undoubtedly a Protestant in Elizabeth’s
-reign, who approved of elaborate music in Churches, within certain
-common-sense limits.
-
-In 1588 John Case published at Oxford an “Apologia Musices” written in
-Latin, and maintaining nearly the same view about Church music as the
-book before us, to which Case makes no allusion. Case was elected
-scholar of St. John’s College, Oxford, in 1564; and in 1568 fellow. “But
-so it was,” says Wood (©Ath. Ox.©, ed. Bliss, i. 685), “that being
-Popishly affected he left his fellowship and married [in 1574] and ...
-read logic and philosophy to young men (mostly of the R. C. religion) in
-a private house in St. Mary Magd. parish.”
-
-The external evidence about the authorship in question may be put as
-follows. In favour of Case is the important fact that Thomas Watson the
-poet in a sonnet to Case does certainly seem to allude to the English as
-well as the Latin treatise. Most of the expressions may, and more than
-one must, apply to the ©Apologia©, but the allusion to Marsyas can only
-refer to the “Praise,” which indeed is mentioned by name, “Mr. John Case
-... his learned booke lately made in the prayes of Musick.” Again, the
-fact that the ©Apologia© nowhere alludes to the former poem is itself an
-argument that they were not independent of each other, while supposing
-that Case was partly ashamed of so light and poetical a production and
-desired to be judged rather by a more philosophical work, such as the
-Latin treatise, we can understand a desire to ignore the former. To this
-may be added that such considerations as the above were sufficient to
-convince critics like Dr. Farmer, Mr. Joseph Haslewood and Dr. Bliss, as
-well as almost all others who have considered the point. Against such a
-conclusion the following points may be urged. Antony à Wood, who wrote
-lives of all Oxford writers up to his own time, and who was born in
-1632, will not even suggest that Case was the author, but on the
-contrary declares that in all his searches he could never discover who
-wrote the book. Richard Heber seems also to have argued against Case’s
-connexion. With respect to Watson’s testimony it must be remembered that
-he had left the University some years before either book was published,
-and that it is quite possible that he wrote his sonnet with both books
-before him and with little on which to form a judgment except an obvious
-similarity of subject and point of view. Some catalogues are said to
-have credited the printer with the authorship, and Lowndes ascribes it
-to Barnaby Barnes!
-
-The internal evidence is against the common authorship of the two books.
-The style of E.[17] is light, poetical and imaginative, with numerous
-digressions, apologized for and repeated: that of L. is more staid and
-so to speak scholastic; the sentences and thoughts fall into a logical
-form which are natural to Case. The latter passes by the mythological
-part of the history of Music, the former finds it in accordance with his
-taste. Both authors are learned: in E. the references to the Fathers are
-as numerous as those from any other source: in L. the references to
-secular authors predominate. Both draw from common sources, such as the
-©Theatrum vitae humanae© of Beyerlinck and the classical authors: but in
-the longest quotation common to both, one from Ornithoparchus’s
-©Micrologus© (E. pp. 39–40: L. pref.), a treatise on singing and music
-(afterwards, in 1609, translated into English), in which the imaginary
-descent of Concentus and Accentus from Sonus is given, they differ
-materially in one point of the account: nor are the explanations of the
-kinds and effects of the Greek styles of music entirely in accord. So
-too there are expressions peculiar to each book which could hardly have
-been absent from the other, had the authors been the same person (as in
-E. allusions to Mercury’s three parts of music; the Roman college of
-minstrels; three causes of music, pleasure, grief and enthusiasm: in L.
-to inanimate nature moved by music, Homer as a minstrel, the idea that
-strings from wolves’ and sheep’s guts would not harmonize together, bees
-not having ears, modern musicians). But lastly the personality of the
-authors is different. Both indeed take up the same general point of
-view, that music is lawful in a Church, and both entirely neglect the
-_science_ of music though they profess to be ardent musicians: but in E.
-there is a distinct purpose to oppose the attempt to exclude all mixed
-and “exquisite” music from the public services: the author writes to his
-equals for the purpose of interesting and convincing them: in L. we see
-the dialectician addressing those trained in the schools and accustomed
-to the subtle distinctions and formalities of scholastic logic, and also
-the teacher of youth, indulging in moral and didactic reflexions (pp.
-53–55). Once more, Case, according to Wood, was known before 1574 to
-have proclivities towards the Roman Catholic religion, and accordingly
-in L. we find no word of blame addressed to that Church, the nearest
-approach being a note of triumph over the defeat of the Armada on the
-last page. Could he then have written, as the author of E., the
-following expressions, all used in contempt, “in the time of popery” (p.
-129), “popish church Musicke” (ibid.), “the hypocriticall Monkes and
-Friers sang their seuen canonicall houres” (p. 133), “rotten rythmes of
-popery and superstitious inuocation or praying vnto Saints doth not giue
-greater cause of vomit to any man than to my selfe” (p. 136)?
-
-The author of the “Praise of Musicke” may one day be discovered, but he
-will probably be found to be some other than Dr. John Case.

-(as always) are the least possible, and not the full size of the plate
-or block.
-
-
- I. _Devices._
-
-Of these there are, in the period under review, fourteen:—
-
- A. 3–11/16 × 2⅞ in. On a shield the arms of the University (with motto
- SAPiEN|TiAE: | ET. | FELi|CiTA|TiS. | ), within a border bearing
- ACADE=|MIA. | OXONI=|ENSIS. | At the corners are two females and two
- satyrs.
-
- Used in 1585–93, 1597–1600, and at intervals till 1635, but not from
- 1625 to 1633.
-
-
- B. 1⅞ × 1⅝ in. A metal engraving. In centre the arms of the

- at the sides AC: and OX. There is a defect (a short line omitted) on
- one shoulder, which serves to distinguish it from H.
-
- Used at intervals from 1592 to 1638.
-
- There is a counterfeit of this used in London printing of at least
- 1616 and 1624: see pp. 106, 120, and H, below.

-
-
- I. 2¼ × 1–15/16 in. In centre the arms of the University on a white
- shield with

-
- Used in 1636 (Lily’s Grammar).
-
-
- II. _Woodcuts._
-
-These are 142 in number (not counting _plain_ woodcut capitals), of
-which 32 were used by Barnes. Most of these passed on to his successors,
-who augmented them. In 1627 the two University printers printed
-separately, and John Lichfield took the larger number for himself, a few
-being used in common. It would be idle to print a complete list of
-these, but the writer has full notes of the occurrence of all that are
-found in each book. Twelve are alphabets, fifteen frames within which
-any capital could be placed, and four are arched borders.
-
-
- B. _Type._
-
-The following table exhibits the use made of different type by Oxford
-printers 1585–1640, but applies only to the chief type of the body of
-the work. Thus Pica Greek is the chief type of a book in 1591 at
-earliest, but it is found occasionally in 1587, and Long Primer Greek in
-1585. So too Great Primer Greek is used in 1624, 9. And Hebrew type is
-used sporadically from 1596 on (Long Primer, Pica and English, pointed
-and unpointed: see 1596, 8 & 9; 1601, 2; 1602, 3; &c.)

-The ordinary size (_now_) of the type used in the Oxford Press from 1585
-to 1640 is as follows, see p. 144 (1629, no. 4):—
-
- _Name._ _Lines in one foot._
- Nonpareil 144
- Minion 120
- Brevier about 110
- Long Primer 90
- Pica 72
- English 64
- Great Primer 51
- Double Pica (which is double “_small_ Pica”) 41
- Canon 20
-
-The old measures make the type of all these very slightly smaller than
-the above measurements.
-
-
- C. _Notanda._
-
-It is curious to observe the small points which break the smooth course
-of ordinary printing in these earlier times, some of them marking
-progress, some a perturbation in the office, some stupidity. The
-following are random notes of some bibliographical interest.
-
- 1. The change of use in the case of _u_ and _v_ (_Vniuersity_ being
- the old spelling, and _University_ the new) may be remarked in
- progress in 1589, no. 5, and is practically completed by 1610. But a
- capital U is not found at all in the period dealt with, its place
- being in a few cases supplied by a large lower-case u.
-
- 2. For “at Oxford” the common Latin is _Oxoniæ_, but _Oxonii_ occurs
- sporadically. _Bellositi Dobunorum_ occurs in 1628: and _Rhydychen_
- (in Welsh books) in 1595, 1600.
-
- 3. In 1588 (no. 8) we first find an Oxford _édition de luxe_.
-
- 4. The state of the office is shown by 1595, no. 4 (small stock of
- type); 1601, no. 2 (Hebrew words sometimes transliterated, sometimes
- in Hebrew type: yet in 1603, no. 2, there is a complaint of the want
- of Hebrew type!); 1625, no. 16 (one sheet in different type); 1628,
- no. 16 (carelessness).
-
- 5. Red ink is found in 1479/80, 1628, 1631, 1633 and thereafter; and
- gold-printing in 1633.
-
- 6. Curiosities of workmanship will be found in 1629, no. 14; 1631,
- nos. 10, 17; 1633, nos. 26, 33; 1634, no. 9; 1635, no. 3; 1636, no. 15
- (signatures); 1638, nos. 3, 17 (do.); 1640, no. 24: and eccentricity
- on the author’s part in 1631, no. 29; 1633, no. 9 (phonetic spelling);
- 1635, no. 10. In 1613 no. 29 (Rainolds) on the first two pages of each
- section the headline is “prophecy”, but on every other page it is
- “prophecie”. 1634 no. 17 (Statuta) is a true folio, in every sense in
- which the word is used.
-
- 7. The number of books or editions issued at Oxford is roughly as
- follows:—15th cent., 15: early 16th cent., 7: 1585–1600, 125:
- 1601–1620, 230: 1621–1640, 370: total, about 750. In the 17th cent.
- about 2700 were issued: in the 18th, about 2100: in the first three
- quarters of the 19th, about 6500. The number from “1468” to 1900 may
- be estimated as likely to be about 16000.
-
- 8. Of the Oxford books issued from “1468” to 1640, the British Museum
- contains less than 70 per cent., and the Bodleian about 80 per cent.
- The following calculation is not far from the truth:—
-
- Oxford books in Brit. Mus. and Bodl. about 450
- Oxford books in Brit. Mus. only " 50
- Oxford books in Bodl. only " 150
- Oxford books in neither library " 100
- ———
- Total 750

- APPENDIX F.
- IMPRINTS.
- LISTS AND TABLES OF OXFORD IMPRINTS, 1585–1640.
-
-
-The following tables and lists explain themselves. They give a detailed
-picture of the mutual relations of Oxford and London printers and
-publishers, and the development of the Oxford book trade. It will be
-noticed how the archaisms (_Imprinted at Oxford by_, or _At Oxford,
-printed by_, &c.) are gradually worn off, with the rhetorical
-descriptions (such as _celeberrimæ Academiæ typographus_), and the use

-Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this

-
-1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the

-works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
-States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
-United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
-claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
-displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
-all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
-that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
-free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
-works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
-Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
-comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
-same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
-you share it without charge with others.
-
-1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are

-agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
-distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
-other Project Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no
-representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
-country outside the United States.

-phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
-performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
-

- United States, you'll have to check the laws of the country where you
- are located before using this ebook.
-
-1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
-derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
-contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
-copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
-the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
-redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase "Project

- payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in

-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
-of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
-liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
-fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
-LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE

-receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
-written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If

-without further opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth

-warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
-damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
-violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the

-

-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's principal office is in Fairbanks, Alaska, with the
-mailing address: PO Box 750175, Fairbanks, AK 99775, but its
-volunteers and employees are scattered throughout numerous
-locations. Its business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt
-Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
