- This book offers an original analysis and critical bibliography of the first academic series in English publishing, the Greek and Latin editions produced by John Fell every New Year over two decades from 1666 to 1686. Surviving copies were traced and analysed in over fifty libraries. The monograph explores the contours over time of this series of editions from a number of different angles and methodologies: the book as gift, the book as commodity; the ecclesiastical, literary, and scientific history of the series; and the history of seventeenth-century editorial methodology, especially concerning the use of manuscripts.
