1900BIBLIO-43150Trustees of the British Museum London first edition 1900-1912. 2 vols cloth 8vo 26 cm. iv 936 iv 1 896 pp. Volume I "embraces all the various collections of deeds in the Department namely the Royal Cotton Harley Sloane Campbell Lansdowne Topham and Wolley Charters together with the Additional and Egerton Charters acquired up to the year 1882 and a special series of Church Briefs. The Stowe Charters acquired in 1883 have already been indexed in the Catalogue of the StoweMSS. 1895-1896; and an index to Charters before the Norman Conquest will be found in Vol. IV. of Facsimiles of Ancient Charters in the British Museum 1873-1878. The more important entries however in the latter have also been inserted here. The present volume is confined to the topography of the Charters relating to the British Isles only reserving for the present all Foreign documents. One of the chief points of interest and value of this Index lies in the evolution of modern place-names from the early forms found in the oldest documents which have all been carefully traced by means of full cross-references." The second volume "unites in one alphabetical series: 1 A purely topographical index on the same scheme as Vol. I. to all the deeds Additional Charters 27005-45797 Egerton Charters 486-621 and the important and early Stowe Charters acquired by the Department from the beginning of 1882 to the end of 1900 : thus completing so far as places in Great Britain and Ireland are concerned the index to all charters in the Department on the 1st of January 1901; 2 Entries under corporate headings such as England Ireland Scotland and the various Orders religious and otherwise Monasteries and religious houses and under London the College of Arms City Companies and the like referring as well to the deeds acquired before 1881 and topographically indexed in Vol. I. as to those acquired from 1882 to 1900. Every reference therefore to a Monastery or other corporation in any deed in the Department collections old or new Boyal Cotton Harley Lansdowne Sloane Campbell Topham Wolley Stowe Additional or Egerton Charters in the Museum at the beginning of 1901 is to be sought in this second volume".

15903All three on letterhead of the Department of Manuscripts British Museum London WC. 4 14 and 17 December 1912. Casting an interesting sidelight on the purchasing practices of the British Museum Manuscripts Department. All three items in good condition on lightly-aged paper. Totalling 6pp. 12mo. On three bifoliums. ONE: ALS. 4 December 1912. 3pp. 12mo. As it is 'difficult to advise without further information as to the nature of the old papers' he invites her to 'send them up' so that he can 'report whether there is any probability of their purchase by the Trustees of the British Museum'. If they are 'bulky' he suggests sending 'specimens'. 'Are they deeds local records correspondence private or public' He gives an address advises sending by registered post 'or insured by rail' and states that they would be returned at her expense. TWO: ALS. 14 December 1912. 2pp. 12mo. He has examined 'the old deeds' which are 'all of some interest in connexion with Yorkshire monasteries etc but the best of them the visitation of Gisburn is very imperfect'. He feels she may be 'disappointed as to their monetary value. As none of them are of very early date and there are no seals I do not think I could offer to recommend them to the Trustees for more than an average of four shillings each i.e £2 for the lot'. THREE: ANS. 17 December 1912. 1p. 12mo. Returning the documents by registered post and enclosing '5d surplus stamps'. All three on letterhead of the Department of Manuscripts, British Museum, London, WC. 4, 14 and 17 December 1912. unknown

10809À Paris De l'imprimerie de A. Bobée 1818 1 vol. 110 x 175 mm de 3 ff. xxii pp. 1 f. d'errata et 321 pp. Veau granité orné d'un quadruple filet d'encadrement doré sur les plats dos à nerfs orné de filets dorés et à froid fleurons dorés roulettes dorées pièce de titre de maroquin bordeaux titre doré tranches marbrées roulette dorée sur les coupes dentelle intérieure dorée reliure de l'époque. Edition originale. Tirage unique à 200 exemplaires. Traduction de Courier en regard du texte grec. . Parmi les littérateurs de la décadence dans l'époque tragique de la mort de l'Empire romain le carthaginois Apulée fait figure de génie. Ces époques portent toujours d'ailleurs en même temps que leur propre poison quelques éclairs qui suffiraient à les sauver. Avec le Satiricon L'Âne d'or a donné de cette décadence l'une des meilleures représentations. Or il demeure sur les origines de ce texte quelque contradictions. Récit grec qui servit de modèle à Apulée pour L'Âne d'or La Luciade serait soit un abrégé des Métamorphoses son grand oeuvre soit au contraire leur développement. Dans sa préface Paul-Louis Courier qui donna la traduction française du texte tranche net : « . je dis que ceci n'est point un abrégé ; ce n'est point la copie réduite mais l'original au contraire du livre des Métamorphoses qui n'était qu'un développement ou plutôt une pitoyable amplification de celui-ci écrite depuis par quelque autre je crois Lucius ou si l'on veut par Lucius vieilli mal inspiré brouillé avec les Muses ayant perdu toute verve ». Et pour soutenir sa thèse il précise que les anciens n'abrégeaient que les textes historiques et « toujours on s'abstint de toucher aux ouvrages d'imagination ». Passage de la page 27 laissé en blanc comme souvent. À Paris, De l'imprimerie de A. Bobée, 1818 1 vol. (110 x 175 mm) de 3 ff., xxii pp., 1 f. d'errata et 321 pp. Veau granité, o unknown
