"It is not because the style or the matter of Mr. Boaden's Critical Examination of the Shakespeare MSS. appears to possess any intrinsic merit that it is made the subject of consideration in the following pages. Much less is this slight attempt dictated by any apprehension that the authenticity of those MSS. will be materially affected either by the arguments of such an examiner or the detection of his sophistry. But when an individual pretends to direct the taste of the public when relying on the fancied ingenuity and importance of his criticism he attempts to depreciate real merit it becomes at least necessary to examine the purity of his motives and the consistency of his conduct. The authenticity of the MSS. in the hands of Mr. Ireland must ultimately be refereed to a higher tribunal" First paragraph. "The "Shakespeare MSS." are the Ireland forgeries.

CIRCA LATE 18TH EARLY 19TH CENTURY BEAUTIFULLY HANDWRITTEN RECIPE FOR GLUE SPECIFICALLY TO REPAIR PORCELAIN

179900TP99France 1799. Small handwritten recipe for a glue to hold porcelain together. Blending lead oils paper and flour. Biographical Notes: SIR THOMAS PHILLIPPS 1792-1872. Born in 1792 Sir Thomas Phillipps from childhood was obsessed with the idea of obtaining virtually anything written or printed on paper including cartloads of documents from wastepaper merchants and the entire inventories of booksellers. "I wish to have one copy of every book in the world" he declared to a friend. He very nearly succeeded. His collection ultimately grew to more than 100000 books and at least 60000 manuscripts. As a result of his extravagant purchases Sir Thomas was permanently on the verge of bankruptcy and was constantly pursued by creditors. So many books arrived at his house that it was impossible to unpack his acquisitions much less keep pace with them. Visiting scholars driven to distraction would spend days hunting for an elusive text in the dusty heaps that filled every room. Because Sir Thomas has a morbid dread of fire most of his collection was housed in coffinlike boxes that could be carted away quickly. Visitors to Middle Hill were struck too by the presence of numerous logs a ploy he used to lure beetles away from his books. As Sir Thomas relentlessly pursued his passion the house itself began to crumble and its floors started to sag under the cast weight of hundreds of tons of paper. His neglect of Middle Hill was partly deliberate however. Sir Thomas's chief enemy in life James Halliwell had married his daughter against his wishes. It appears that Halliwell was in Sir Thomas' eyes the worst kind of criminal a book thief who had stolen valuable works from university libraries and even from his father-in-law. Having no sons Sir Thomas was unable to prevent Halliwell from inheriting his estate. To ensure that his detested heir would never receive anything of value Sir Thomas's solution was to allow Middle Hill to fall unto complete disrepair. He even went so far as to chop down and sell for lumber the centuries-old oak trees that lined the majestic mile-long drive to his home. In 1863 Sir Thomas decided to move - in order to accommodate his books. With the aid of 160 men 103 wagonloads of books and papers drawn by 230 horses the books were lumbered from Middle Hill top their new estate in nearby Cheltenham. It is said that for years afterwards the countryside was littered with the remains of carts that had collapsed under the sheer weight of the Phillipps collection. Sir Thomas continues to add to his library until his death in 1872. After Sir Thomas's death his immediate family had no room for his collection. So vast was the library that although individual items and large sections were sold privately or through numerous auction sales the Phillipps collection is still being sold more than a century after the death of its owner. In the course of its sales many treasures have come to light. As late as 1964 part of the long-lost and unique medieval manuscript of the Roman poet Ovid's Metamorphoses appeared and was subsequently reunited with its other half at Magdalen College Oxford. Once destined for destruction as worthless wastepaper this and many other priceless works were saved by the single-minded obsession of the greatest bibliomaniac of all time. Autograph. Manuscript.

This Histoire is the story of the Stuarts as rulers and pretenders considered as the legitimate Catholic rulers of England unfairly usurped. Turpin continues the story from the expulsion of James II through efforts to recover the throne. The rarity of these volumes may reflect the fact that France faced a more violent revolution within three years and neither side cared much for the fate of the Stuarts after that.

Plays in Latin language with German language commentary. Front gutter cracked but still holding. Soiling to the boards. Terrence 190 B.C. - 159 B.C. was a North African slave of a Roman senator Terentius Lucanus. He was the author of 6 major palys. His style deviated from earlier dramatic form. He avoided monologues favoring dialogue that was more like ordinary conversation devoid of flamboyance. His prologues were essays in literary crticism and he was deeply concerned with unity in the plot sometimes incorporating passages from other plays. He moved drama in the direction of realism and was influential on the writings of Cicero Horace and the early Christian Church fathers. This edition of his plays was prepared for German students with extensive notes explaining the most difficult passages the Latin idiomatic expressions and Greek roots of som eof the words. A long preface in German is a commentary on pre-Christian authors and their works. Mertz & Meyer unknown
