Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Catalogue of Adversaria and Printed Books Containing Ms. Notes: Preserved in the Library of the University of Cambridge It is needless to point out how valuable such catalogues as the present must be: the bringing within every ones reach the knowledge of what the Library contains in a critical point of view - so as, as it were, to bring before all Scholars the critical apparatus it possesses for new editions of the works annotated, must be regarded of very great use and importance; and I cannot but express a hope that other libraries may be induced to follow the example now given. The greatest portion of the Adversaria here described, consist of the books annotated by John Taylor, Peter Paul Dobree, and Godfrey Hermann. The first were obtained at the sale of Dr Askew, to whom they had been left by Taylor; the second were left to the University by the author himself at his death in 1825; and the last were bought at Hermann´s sale. The sources whence others were obtained has been mentioned in all cases when known, in the Catalogue. The description of nearly the whole of the Adversaria on Classical Books is due to Mr Churchill Babington, of St John´s College: for the rest the Editor is responsible.
