 ApoUonius of Tyana : » a sketch of the Life of Apoiionius of 
 
 Tyana : or the First Ten Decades of our Era," by D. M. Tuedwell, 1 vol. 
 
 8vo. vi, 354 pp. cloth, 10s Qd New YorJc, printed hy Be Vinne, 1886 
 
 Readers will find in this book a most interesting account of the times of Apoiionius and 
 
 descriptions of the places he visited, illustrated by quotations that show that a wide field of 
 
 research has been traversed bj' the author. In the attempt, however, to combine a picture of the 
 
 age with the life of the philosopher the latter tends at times to be somewhat obscured. 
 
 In spite of misrepresentation and disdain, and the mistaken zeal of sectaries who have 
 thoupht, by blackening the character of a great man whom they failed to understand, they were 
 advancing the divine claims of their own leader, the character of Apoiionius will always stand 
 nut as one of the grandest, if not the grandest, of his time. Mr. Tredwell, in a recently pub- 
 lished work, has given us the best modern account of Apoiionius and his, time and to this book 
 wc owe most of our details. — Theosophist, October, 1886.

 The book and the author are both totally unknown to the bibliographers, '- 
 
 and the former is consequently perhaps unique. The woodcuts are of the most ! 
 
 simple and archaic style, coai-se and ugly, but striking. The first rejiresents [ 
 
 the body in a coiHn, tlic soul like a child is flying away, the angel with • 
 
 outstretched wings hovers over them, and bears a scroll on which are the 
 
 letters A V II. According to the .3Gth octave, the scroll is the sentence of ' 
 
 damnation. The poem consists of a dialogue between the body and the soul. | 
 
 The last stanza runs thus : — |

 Few books possess such, a title as this, to rank among tlie 
 costly rarities of bibliopliily. It is tbe unique copy, in splendid 
 condition, of the long lost and long sought-for, first edition of 
 the Amadis — a work, which, besides its own literary merit, has 
 also the grand distinction of having influenced and tinctured 
 the minds of writers and readers throughout Spain, France, 
 Italy, and England for nearly two centuries. Till Tross 
 discovered it at Ferrara and sold it to Baron Seilliere, no one 
 knew of any edition older tlian that printed at Rome in 1519, 
 which, for many reasons, was decidedly not the princeps. An 
 edition, of Sevilla, 1511, was frequently cited witli doubt, on the 
 faith of an entry made by Ferdinand Columbus in his catalogne 
 early in the sixteenth century ; but no one had ever seen it, and 
 the correctness of the description was suspected. One may 
 conceive therefore the sensation of surprise and delight Avitli 
 which the bibliophiles heard of Baron Seilliere's treasure trove 
 dated Zaragoza, 1508. — Neither the first French Lancelot, nor 
 the first English Mort Arthur, nor the first Valencian Tirant to 
 Blanch, can compete in raiity with the first Spanish Amadis, a 
 book that is equally with them a great central monument of old 
 romance. 
 
 The editor or renovator, Garci-Ordonez de Montalvo, 
 according to later editions, is in the rubricated heading of the 
 princeps, described as Garcirodriguez de Montalvo, and his 
 
TYPOGRAPHICAL MONUMENTS : SPAIN, ZARAGOZA. 3855 
 
 prologue makes the usual statement that he simply corrected the 
 corrupted text of the three hoolcs of Amaclis, that he had had the 
 good fortune to get hold of the original fourth book and the 
 original Senjas de Esplandian {i.e. the fifth book or first 
 continuation), and that he translated the latter two so as to add 
 them to the former three. He did not, however, print the 
 Sergas until it appeared as a separate book in 1510. The 
 judgment of critics is divided as to whether he was himself the 
 author both of Book IV and of the Sergas, or only of the latter. 
 With regard to the original thi-ee books, and their origin, the 
 following recital of the case as ifc stands may be useful. 
 
 The usiial and generally accepted belief is that a Portuguese 
 or Galician knight, Yasco de Lobeira, wrote the Amadis (i-iii) 
 in the latter part of the thirteenth century ; and the earliest 
 statement to that effect is made by Gomez Eannes de Azurara 
 (about 1440-50), who speaks with some contempt of Lobeira as 
 having fabricated his idle history in the reign of King Ferdinand 
 (i.e. 1367-85). This agrees with the statement made by others 
 that Loveira died in 1403-4, which is probably correct. [But 
 there is a further assertion made by several persons, that he 
 wrote the Amadis for the Infante Alfonso of Portugal, who is 
 mentioned in Lib. i, cap. 40, of the romance, and that the Infante 
 was born in 1370 ; from which they conclude that the book, 
 Portuguese or Galician, was not written earlier than 1386. All 
 this is absurd, as there was no such Infante, and the mention in 
 Lib. I, cap. 40 is plainly made by Montalvo himself. Four Dom 
 Alfonsos were Infantes of Portugal between 1290 and 1490. 
 The first, who became King Alfonso IV in 1325, is too early for 
 Loveira; the second, who Avas the son of Joao I, and died of the 
 plague in 1400, had only reached his eleventh or twelfth year, 
 and was therefore too young to suit the theory ; the third was 
 Infante only for the first six years of his life and then came to 
 the throne as Alfonso V ; the fourth, a son of Joao II, was born 
 in 1475 and died from accident in 1491.] The residue of 
 conjecture may be taken to be that Loveyra's Amadis was 
 written about 1380-90. 
 
 The Spanish critics point out that the existence of a 
 popular Amadis romance is indicated by Pero Lopez de 
 Ayala (about 1370) and by Pei'o Ferrus (in or after 1379), 
 and that consequently it must have had considerable circulation 
 befoi'e that time. It is thus insinuated that Loveyra could not 
 have been the author. The stanza of Ferrus even goes so far 
 as to specify that his Amadis was in three books, just as 
 Montalvo says in the printed Amadis. Of course it is possible 
 that Loveyra may have Avritten as early as 1360, but even then, 
 it hardly seems that the work would have had time to become 
 popularly known in Spain. 
 
 Garcirodriguez de !Montalvo does not profess to have 
 translated but only to have amended the three books of Amadis, 
 but he would hardly consider himself as doing translator's work 
 if he were simply Castilianising a Galician or a Valencian text. 
 
3856 BERNARD QIJARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. 
 
 The reference in Lib. i, cap. 40, to tlie alteration in the story 
 commanded bj the Infante Alfonso of Portugal j^robably refers 
 to the young Alfonso Avho came to marry Ysabel of Spain 
 (daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella) in 1490, to whom he may 
 have presented the MS. of his first book, and for whom he may 
 have made some change in the incidents, rejected when he 
 re-wrote the romance as we now have it, after 1491.

 Excessively eare. Juan del Enzina lived from 1468-9 to 1534. These 
 
 works, of which the dramatic compositions that occupy the last section are 
 
 considered the most valuable, belong to the most important class of early 
 
 Spanish literature. The fame of the poet was always high, and his writings 
 
 were well known in printed selections and in MSS., but the editions printed in 
 
 his own time had disappeared so utterly when Antonio compiled the Biblio- 
 
 theca that he treated Enzina as a poet who had never been printed.

 This is only about half the wook, but even as it is, it may be unique. No 
 
 bibliographer seems to have known it. The compiler was Pedro de la Vega, 
 
 as appears from a colophon printed in red on the last leaf. Although the 
 
 book is imperfect, it has considerable value even as a collection of Spanish 
 
 woodcuts.

 An exquisite volume, inside and outside. Besides being one of the 
 most beautiful books ever produced in the department of ornamental 
 art applied to calligraphy, it is also perhaps the very rarest when perfect. The 
 calligrajiher, Juan de Yciar, of Biscay, was ably seconded and assisted by the 
 engraver, Jean de Vingles, a Frenchman ; and their united labour achieved a 
 masterpiece of fine decoration. Vingles' initials and mark occur in several 
 places, and his full name appears in the first woodcut border of the second 
 edition ; but his name is not given on the title page of any but the first edition. 
 There is little difference in rarity between the two editions, but the second is 
 superior as containing additions and improvements. The following is a collation 
 of the second edition. — Title, with engraved intitulation (it is letterpress in 
 the first edition) and engraved borders ; dedication, 3 leaves, the author's 
 portrait occupying the reverse of the third leaf ; text, 8 leaves of letterpress 
 framed within woodcut borders ; Siguense las Tablas, letterpress intitulation 
 within fine woodcut designs (not in first edition) ; 16 pp. of engraved examples ; 
 the seventeenth page " Practica del Alphabeto cancilleresco " intitulation 
 within boi-der ; 1 1 pp. of specimens ; " Trata de letras antiguas," 2 pp. of 
 text within borders ; 14 pp. of specimens; 2 pp. letterpress " Trata de letra 
 Aragonesa " within borders ; 12 pp. of specimens ; 1 page of text " Trata . . 
 de las Cifras " ; 3 pp. of Ciphers ; 2 pp. of letterpress " Trata de la Letra 
 Gotica " ; 9 pp. of specimens ; " Trata de . . cosas necessarias a un escriptor" 
 3 pp. of letterpress; 19 pp. of specimens; 4 pp. letterpress " de la Letra 
 grucssa" ; 10 pp. of specimens ; 18 pp. of letterpress, within woodcut borders; 
 1 leaf with colophon and printer's mark. — The engraved borders to the letter- 
 press are all added in this edition ; as well, also, as several of the engraved 
 pages, which bear date 1550. The letterpress also is augmented in this 
 edition, but on the other hand a few of the recipes for varnish, etc. are omitted. 
 The inscription round the anther's portrait shows that he was born in 1523.

 2 vols, in 1, sm. folio, gotljic letter, double columns, u-ith the double 
 Map, large and perfect copy in old gilt calf, with the book-plate 
 " Soi de Francisco Carter,'' extremely rare, £75, 1552-53 
 
 Collation: title, one loaf; a los leientes, 1 leaf; a-z and A-G in fours, 
 with a map of the two Hemispheres on two leaves ; Conquista de Mexico, a-z 
 and A-M in fours ; — all printed in double columns. 
 
 The only variation between the above two copies is in the preliminary 
 leaves of the first part ; merely differences of intitulation and arrangement 
 which indicate a different time of issue. The calf copy is evidently the earlier 
 as there is a woodcut border to the letterpress on the back of the title, and the 
 heading; of the dedication to the Emperor is in red. The map is so little 
 touched by the cutter that we have still the inscription at the bottom, 
 " Estrecho de Magallanes," which has been cut away in the morocco copy. 
 
 37677* another edition, 2 vols, in 1, sm. folio, gotfjic letter,

 quistadores ; bound in old English red morocco extra, gilt edges, 
 with Harleian gold tooling, from the Carteret library, £10. 1554 
 
 The first page here bears the words, an-anged like a title, " Fue impressa 
 la presente obra en la muy insigne ciudad de Carag09a, en casa de Pedro 
 Eemuz . . mil y quinientos y ciuqnenta y quatro " with the mark of Jorge 
 Coci beneath it. This looks as though a regular title-page to the Historia were 
 absent, and as if the present first leaf was really only the original final leaf of that 
 part transferred from the end to the beginning. The second part has a regular 
 title, beneath the imperial arms, " Cronica de la nueua espaiia con la conquista f 
 
 de Mexico . . . En Carag05a, 1554" ; and at the end " Fue impresa la presente \ 
 
 historia de Indias y conquista de Mexico . . en casa de Augustin Millan

 Unique ; from the Sapienza library at Eome. It contains the 3 books 
 of the 1st part, and the collation is as follows : 1st book, title and prologue, 
 4 leaves, pp. 1-203 ; 2nd book, pp. 1-216, including title-page ; 3rd book, 
 pp. 1-218, including title-page. Brunet gives the following note concerning 
 this volume, " Cctte edition fort rare que cite Antonio, a I'article Didacus 
 Ortunez et qui nous avait paru apocryphe, existe bien a Rome dans la biblio- 
 th^que de la Saptenza." 
 
 On the last page appears the following notice: Aqvi se acaba la primei'a 
 parte del libro iniitvlado Espeio de Principes y Cavalleros. La segvnda parte 
 estaya tradvcida la qval no tardara de salir a Ivz." — From this we may infer 
 that the second part was really printed some time before the edition of 1580, 
 the first hitherto known. The above unique volume offers a parallel case. If 
 the Sapienza copy had not been discovered, no one would have believed in the 
 existence of one of earlier date than 1580. 
 
 This is the romance which became so great a favourite in England under 
 the name of the Mirror of Knighthood. In France it was known as Le 
 Chevalier du Soleil.

 Salva states that the first edition of 1550, and this edition of 1564 are 
 both particularly rare beyond all other editions of this book. The 40 Cantos 
 are not, as the title would imply, original compositions by Alonso de Fuentes, 
 whose work is simply the prose Glosses upon the poems. He evidently did not 
 know who the original author was, but considered them to be contemporary 
 imitations of old Spanish ballads, which a certain distinguished personage had 
 sent to him to publish with a commentary. In the preface by Fuentes, he has 
 preserved and inserted a genuine old ballad said to be from the pen of Alfonso 
 the Wise himself.

 The name of the Bachillcr Enciso is frequently met with in the earliest 
 annals of the New World as being an important actor in the extension of 
 Spanish conquest and discovery. His book, in both of its editions, but 
 especially in tliis lirst one, is very rare, as even a single circumstance is 
 sufticient to prove, y\r.. -. that Dr. Court had no copy in his library. 
 
 On tlie page which occupies the reverse of h 4, he records the curious 
 conversation with two chiefs of Ccnu, in which, when he informed them that 
 the Pope had bestowed all those regions upon the King of Spain, they replied 
 that the Pope must have been drunk and that the King was an idiot.

 First and very rare Edition of this translation. The work in 
 Italian was originally published at Rome in 1510, and the Latin version at 
 Milan in 1511. It is from the Latin that the above translation was 
 made. This copy cost Dr. Burnell over £50 {i.e. £48 plus the cost of binding). 
 
 The translator says, regarding critics, that if they find fault with the

 '• On the last leaf is a very remarkable statement respecting the invention

 M-as the invention of a citizen of that place named ' Pedro Fuest,' who 
 made known his discovery in the year 1425. But afterwards, in the year 1431, 
 a quarrel arose between two archbishops ; and one of them, having arranged 
 with certain of the citizens to open the gate on the night of SS. Simon 
 and Jude, he entered the city with his people; and so great _ a massacre 
 ensued, that the kennels ran with blood. Among the slain was this celebrated 
 man ' Pedro Fuest.' "

 An exposition of the sacraments and the Creed ; with a treatise on the 
 formation of manners and the general social education of youth which is very 
 curious and of real historical interest. The author, who is described as " de 
 buena memoria," and to whom the title of " comensal del Papa" is given, had 
 been killed at the sack of Rome in 1527. 
 
 A certain American interest attaches to the volume from the fact that it 
 belonged in 1575 to the Monastery '' de Sant Francesco de Mexico," and 
 bears the signature of " Fr. Michael Navarro, commiss. generalis " at that 
 date.

 Very rare first edition of all that was originally published (the edition 
 printed by the Spanish Academy a few j'ears ago being the only complete 
 impression of Oviedo's work). The Carta missiva which occupies two leaves 
 at the end of the first part, and was printed at the same time, bears the 
 autograph signature of the author, in this form — '• Emo. & illmo. Seiior las 
 manos de V. S. Ema. besa Go. Fernandez de Oujedo." The twentieth book 
 (which is the first of part II), published separately at Valladolid in 1557 was 
 not finished in consequence of the author's death. It is excessively rare.

 Not quoted by Salva or Brunet ; but described in the Supplement to the

 note : " Ces Bulles du pape Leon X out une certaine importance ; au f. 82, le 
 chapitre intitule Destierro para las Tndias est particulierement interessant. 
 Le vol. est fort rare." The chapter in question gives a list of privileges 
 granted to criminals who consented to dwell in the New World. Harrisse 
 derived his information from a copy in a private library in Seville. I am

 In this curious book, the whole domain of science as then known is 
 reviewed in a dialogue between a Spanish gentleman and an Italian traveller. 
 It is all in blank verse, the Italian using the metre of his native style, although 
 his language is Casiilian ; while the Spaniard uses a long hexametrical metre. 
 The Italian mode is printed as verse and in Koman character ; the Spanish as 
 prose in Gothic letters.

 Excessively rare. These nine tracts were written between 1541, 
 when the worthy Bishop with the Emperor was getting up the celebrated 
 Leyes de las Indies of 1543, and 1550, when he was going into batile with 
 Sepnlveda, to prove that the conquest of the Indies was tyrannical, unjust 
 and iniquitous. From the day of publication these tracts have maintained 
 their historical importance, interest, and rarity.

 Very rare. There was no copy cither iu the Salva or in the Miro 
 collection. This Chronicle was written in the time of Juana la Loca, and 
 embraces a period of nearly a thousand years from the tin\o of the Goths to 
 1.516. The first few pages relate to the prehistoric times when the descendants 
 of Japhet peopled Spain, and from Spain peopled Hiberoua, which to-day is 
 called Anglaterra on maj^s ; the name receiving its first change when Brutus, 
 the first Consul of Rome, subjugated it, and entitled it Britannia. Hercules 
 and the Greeks conquered Spain ; when the magnificent baron Hercules, and 
 his successor Ilispan. were dead, then there rose a great multitude of knights 
 called Goths. From this point the tale becomes more familiar. It is one of 
 the scarcest books of its kind : in fact I am unable to trace any copy as having 
 occurred for sale, except these two, and an imperfect one which was in the 
 hands of the elder Salva. sixty years ago.

 first part does not appear to exist either in print or manuscript. 
 
 Salva quotes the following from Xiraeuo : " Viciana ingenuously speaks 
 the clear and naked truth, and this commendable honesty caused such a rigid 
 persecution of his books that it was attempted to destroy them entii'ely, and, 
 as we are told, a great number of copies of them were burnt. It is unques- 
 tionable that they may be classed among the very scarcest books in the world. 
 It is with ditiiculty we can find a single printed copy of any of them. ... I 
 have seen in print the third and fourth part, and about half of the second, but 
 have never been able to find the first."

 No copy of any earlier edition is known, although the book is supposed

 to have been printed in 1409, in 1500, and in 1501. Salva omits to say that 
 the unicjuc copy usually described as of tlie first date, has a forged colophfjn. 
 The fact that the second one was printed is only proved by the colophon of an 
 edition of 1513. Of the existence of the third (1501) there is no demonstrable 
 certainty. A Celestina in the Seilliere collection was described as of that 
 date, but the last leaf was found not to be genuine. It may have been a 
 facsimile from some genuine copy, but catinot rank as evidence. In 1502 there 
 were three editions, one of Seville, another of Salamanca (both described by 
 Brnnet and Dibdin), and this one of Toledo, which has been described for the 
 first time, in my catalogue.

 " Ce premier ouvragc du fecond ecrivain n'a rien de commun avec la, 
 
 Ilistoria general y natural de las Indias de 1^3 H : c'est un resume destine a 
 
 donner au roi d'Espagne nn apercu des choses dxx Nouveau-Monde, decrivant 
 
 les rites, mocurs, coutumes et ceremonies des naturels." — Brunet, Sttppl. 
 
 It was the first general review of the new American empire of Spain, 
 discussing the almost unlimited prospect of grandeur o]iened by the recent 
 discoveries of Mexico, the I'acific, and the passage through Magellan's 
 Straits ; and the policy which should be adopted by the monarchy. The 
 book was probably suppressed in Spain itself for prudential reasons ; which 
 would account for its signal rarity.

 A doubly remarkable volume, each of its parts taking a primary rank in 
 the Annals of the New World. The Relacion (here printed for the second 
 time, but of the first edition of which in 1542 only one copy is now extant) 
 describes the wanderings of Cabc(,\i de Vaca with the luckless survivors of the 
 expeditioji that had set out in \^2~ for the conquest of Florida (by which 
 was meafet all the region afterwards known as Florida and Louisiana). It is 
 the record of the first journei' made by Europeans through the United States. 
 Cabeza de Vaca and a few others who survived the shipwreck of the expedition, 
 were seized by the Indians on the Mississippi coast and held iu slavery for four 
 years, but escaped and made their way inland across Texas to Sonora, or near

 to the inmost shore of the Gulf of California. Thence he and his three 
 companions traversed the country southwards, and succeeded in reaching 
 Mexico once more. On his return to Spain in lo.S?, having failed to get the 
 governorship of Florida, which had been given to Soto, he obtained that of the 
 Kiver Plate in 1540. He arrived in Uruguay in /541, and proceeded to 
 Asuncion, the capital of Paraguay, where Spanish authority was now seated, 
 the site of Buenos Ayres having been abandoned. His work thenceforward 
 was the exploration of the regions around the Paraguay and Pai'ana, the 
 conciliation of the Indian tribes, and the discovery of the route towards Peru. 
 He was however made prisoner by mutineers, and sent back to Spain in 1545. 
 His secretary Pedro Hernandez wrote tiiis narrative (which is the first printed 
 account of the Plata region), to which is appended a Relaeion made in 1545 
 by Hernando de Ribera, whom Cabeza de Vaca had sent on a journey of 
 exploration northwards up the River Paraguay.

 The date of this volume carries it properly out of the category of early 
 books which, by a rough division equally applicable to Spanish and to English 
 literature, might be said to include all that were printed in the fifteenth and 
 most of those that were printed in the sixteenth century. But as a very rare 
 volume, belonging to a series of romances distinctive of the sixteenth century, 
 its appearance here may be excused.

 the faith of a scanty statement in Antonio's Bibliotheca Hispana. Juan de

 These excessively rare pieces were probably jiriuted in A''enice. Although 
 printed anonymously, since Valdes was known to be a follower of the new 
 learning, and owed his safety to the faA'our with which he was regarded by 
 the Emperor, the book itself was destroj'ed wherever recognized. Peter 
 Martyr Vermiglioli and Bernardo Ochino were induced by Valdes to desert 
 the Church of Kome ; and through them we may trace his influence on the 
 course of English Reform.

 The last of the above copies is peculiar in having passed through the 
 hands of Inquisitors for correction. It has two stamps of the Holy Office 
 impressed on the title, and another upon the last leaf at foot of an autograph 
 attestation, dated 1595, by Fray Pedro de Aguirre, in which he certifies 
 having corrected the volume. The result of his correction was that folios 172, 
 173, and half of 174, were cut away, and have only been replaced in MS. by 
 a seventeenth centuiy hand. 
 
 The edition of 1573 contains several pieces which are not in that of 
 1557, so that it is indispensable even in collections where the latter is found. '

 A fine copy of this book is a singular rarity. Tlie work is admirable and 
 precious for many reasons. The translator was Gudbrand Thorhiksson, 
 Bishop of Holum in Iceland, the book was printed at his own private press, 
 the woodcut decorations and capitals were cut by himself, and the result 
 was a work not only rivalling technically the contemporary productions of 
 Germany, but also taking high rank as a classic in the language it was 
 written in.

 An excessively rare book, remarkable as a volume of woodcuts by aa 
 unknown master, and also as an old Bohemian text. It was published by 
 y)'xt Ottersdorf and Jan Kosorsky, who sign the preface, from an old MS. 
 which had long been admired among the Czechs ; the book having been in 
 fact a popular mediaeval romance. It professes to have been written originally 
 in Arabic by a Doctor Frigonius of Jerusalem, and translated into Latin at 
 the request of (Gui) de Valence, Bishop of Tripoli, in the thirteenth century; 
 and thence rendered into Czech. — It is probable that no original will now be 
 found to justify these statements ; but the name by which the book seems to 
 have been usually known, '■ Solfernus," is apparently Arabic, and a phrase 
 designating Adam (Salaf-en-nas=Ancestor of the Human Race).

 Mexico. . . . Acahose d'imprimir e fin d'l ano d' mil y quinietos 
 
 y quarenta y seys anos (1546) 
 Very rare ; one of the earliest specimens of Mexican typography. The 
 title contains a woodcut of a bishop preaching, over the text, and surrounded 
 by a border. The signatures of the Doctrina are a-i in eights and ft which 
 has only 4 11. (making 76 11.). It finishes on verso of ft4 with Laiis Deo A 
 gloria y alahdra de dios nro senor y de su hendita madre fue impressa esta 
 doctrina catholica en mexico por mddado del reueredissimo seilor don fray Juil 
 ^umarraga : primero obispo dela misma ciudad : pa vtilidad comun. 
 Especial delos indios : porquc por ella sea.n cathetizados los q se ouiere de 
 baptizar : y ensenados los haptizados. Then follows the Prologo on I, which 
 commences as follows : — " Prologo, Proemio alos amados hermanos lectores 
 xpianos enel suplemeto o adiciones del cathecismo quequieredezir ensenamiento 
 del christiano." The signatures run from I to ll in eights (thus forming 24 11.); 
 It 8 is occupied by the colophon to the whole book which we reprint above. 
 
 This edition is, most probably, the one described by riarris.«e (in his 
 Additions to the Bih. Vet. Amer. pp. 131-2) from the copy in the Biblioteca 
 Provincial of Toledo (wanting the Prologo and final colophon), which he 
 places under the year 1540. It will be seen on comparing the present with his 
 description that the first colophon on the reverse of U 4 agrees word for word 
 with that given by him ; the number of leaves is the same, and so also is the 
 
TYPOGRAPHICAL MONUMENTS : MEXICO. 3897 
 
 number of chapters into which the work is divided, but the title is totally 
 diiferent. There can be uo doubt that the title in the present copy is the 
 right one, as the text commences on its verso and the last word is divided 
 and continued correctly on the next page. It seems therefore to follow, if 
 Ilarrisse has copied the title of the copy in the Provincial Library of Toledo 
 correctly, either that two ditferent titles were issued Nvitli the same book, 
 or that an earlier edition without the Prologo and second colophon was 
 issued with a title as given by him. The title and second colophon of the 
 present edition are correctly given by Ilarrisse {Bib. Amer. Vetiist. p. 4191, 
 though his collation (60 unnumbered leaves) is incorrect, but it is evident that 
 the copy he there describes had not the Prologo,

 The simplified grammar, which follows the more ample grammar of 1559, 
 is a totally different work from the latter, and apparently quite unknown to 
 bibliographers. Its date is assumed from the use in the preface of the wonl

 here, we fmd a complete history of the States of Delaware, Maryland, and 
 Kew Jci'sey, from 1584 to 1730, more exhaustive and precise than could else- 
 where be obtained. But the volume is of excessive rarity, as probably no 
 more than ten copies were printed for the use of the Chancery suit ; and 
 indeed wc only know at present of the existence of one other copy. The 
 larger map, which is on a scale of an inch for every seven and a-half miles, 
 was a new and special feature of the proceedings, and infinitely superior to 
 anything of the kind then known.

 Persian Portraits : a sketch of Persian History, Literature 
 
 and Politics, 8vo. cloth, xii and 170 pp. 5s 1887 
 
 " The object of this volume is very laudable, namely, to introduce in a popular form the 
 rich and poetical literature of Persia to the people of this country. Mr. Arbuthnot indeed is 
 such an enthusiast in his work that he thinks an Oriental Translation Fund would be a befii ng 
 form of a Jubilee memorial. His sketches of personal history, carried back to the seventh 
 century before Christ, prove that he is a master of his subject, a fact which is confirmed by his 
 amusing outline of the Persian volume on domestic manners and customs professedly vrritten by 
 five Persian ladies and two female experts. In matters of Oriental study we are in this country 
 far behind Germany, although the catalogue of the Persian MS8. in the British Museum fills 
 three substantial volumes. We are familiar with the names of Hafiz, Sadi, and Firdusi as 
 Persian poets, but these are only the Alpine peaks, for there is quite a multitude of lesser 
 heights, many of whom deserve to be better known in England than they are. As the compiler 
 and translator very properly says, the volume before us is not intended for Oriental scholars or 
 for those who are well versed in Oriental literature, but as an introduction to Persian literature, 
 and especially to the tales and legends with which it abounds. It has a distinct and important 
 value, and may be cordially recommended to all who have neither the leisure nor the inclination 
 to enter upon the study of larger volumes. Mr. Quaritch, of Piccadilly, has issued the work in 
 a neat and attractive form." — Liverpool Mercury, January 12th. 1887.

 the same, laege papeb, royal 8vo. cloth, £2. 8« 1887 
 
 "Mr. Hazlitt has done much work during the last thirty years, and some of it has been 
 bitterly attacked : but we venture to think that the debt of gratitude which all students of Old 
 English literature owe to him for his biographical collections must remain in the most enduring- 
 opinion of his labours. We would bid all readers who care for the books of the past to read the 
 practical, manly and comprehensive introduction prefixed to this volume. It forms one of the 
 laest pleas for the study of English literature which we know ; and, coming close upon the 
 important speech of IMr. John Morley, it takes up a phase of the subject not yet adequately 
 recognized. The academic side has been put l)y Mr. Morley ; the practical by Mr. Hazlitt : 
 The England in which we dwell is one with the England which lies behind us. So far as the 
 period which I comprehend goes, it is one country and one race ; and I do not think that we 
 should precipitately and unkindly spurn the literature which our foregoers left to us and to our 
 descendants for ever, because it may at first sight strike us as irrelevant to our present wants 
 and feelings. . . . The considerer of modem opinions and customs is too little addicted to 
 retrospection. He seems to be too shy of profiting on the one hand by the counsels or sugges- 
 tions, on the other by the mistakes of the men who have crossed the nnrepassable line ; who 
 have dealt with the topics and problems with which we have to deal. These are stirring and 
 sensible words, and we should much like to see them more widely disti'ibuted than the limited 
 issue of this volume will allow. 
 
 " It is impossible, in a short notice such as we can only give, to do justice to the contents 
 of this work. The titles of every book or tract are given in full, having been transcribed by 
 Mr. Hazlitt himself ; and there is often appended to the entry interesting information about the 
 condition, history, and, above all things, the present locale of the book. Such work as this 
 requires labour, and skill, and knowledge of no ordinary kind. Now that Mr. Bradshaw is dead, 
 there are few indeed who possess these qualities, and appai'ently only one who puts them at the 
 service of his fellows. It has been often said of late that the bibliographer and indexer are 
 more needed than the book-writer ; and if this is true, as we are inclined to think it, Mr. Hazlitt's 
 work must, in relation to the age in which it is produced, be awarded a very high place. It 
 enables us to ascertain what has been done in English literature, and, therefore, ought to enable 
 us to do our work so much the better. Almost all departments of study are now occupied as 
 much with a reconsideration of old facts as with the discovery of new, and for this purpose 
 such books as Mr. Hazlitt's are indispensable. We are happy to say that a competent Cambridge 
 student has undertaken to compile an index to the four volumes of bibliography issued by 
 Mr. Ha7Mtt, and that this will be published by Mr. Quaritch as soon as it is ready." — The 
 AniiqiMry, April, 1887.
