ENNEMIS.

Par WILLIAM BLADES, Typographe.

Auteur de "The Life and Typography of William Caxton," etc.

Traduit de l'Anglais.

With Frontispiece and Three Plates.

A translation into French of "The Enemies of Books." The English edition of this dainty little work ran through three editions in six months, and is now out of print and difficult to obtain.

[blocks in formation]

Third Edition brought down to January, 1882. With the assistance, as Associate Editor, of
WILLIAM I. FLETCHER,

Assistant Librarian of the Watkinson Library, Hartford, Conn.;

And the Co-operation of the American Library Association, and the Library Association of the United Kingdom. "One of the marvels of bibliographical research and industry. . . . . Those who have need of such a work of reference owe no little debt of gratitude to those who have undertaken the gigantic labour of completing it."-The Saturday Review.

....

"To the industry and accuracy of those who carried their labours to a close every page of this book testifies: and it is impossible not to admire the single-hearted devotion of the compilers. . . . . The work is so well done and so useful that the question whether it could have been better done may be left alone. Mr. Poole may well be proud of 1 work which will make his name famous on both sides of the Atlantic, and Chicago may well be proud of the industry and energy of her librarian."-The Athenæum.

[ocr errors]

"It is a master-key to a mine of literature which is unexplored and unexplorable unless the aid of this index is available. . . . . The librarian and the bibliographer will scarcely need more than a reminder that the volume has at length been issued, whilst to the bookseller who really wishes to be master of his calling, Poole's Index to Periodical Literature should find a place on his private shelf, beside Watt and Allibone, and Lowndes and Low, and our own Reference Catalogue."-The Bookseller.

"Students and writers as well as librarians will be thankful for the compilation of this invaluable work, the general usefulness as a guide to the rich literature buried in our magazines and reviews can scarcely be over-estimated, while as a saver of time and labour to the literary man, it is worth treble its price."-The Publishers' Weekly.

"There are many references to articles in magazines which the most skilful book-hunter would never have thought of, and the whole work affords a key to the contents of a vast library of epitomes of science, literature, and art."-New York Critic.

"One of the greatest and most practical of Transatlantic bibliographers is Dr. Poole, whom we have now to congratulate on the completion of a work that will earn him the gratitude of scholars alike in the Old World and the New. -The Academy.

"We cannot refrain from paying what tribute we may to the devotion, the courage, the unselfishness of our American brethren."-The Oracle.

TRÜBNER'S ORIENTAL SERIES.

"A knowledge of the commonplace at least of Oriental literature, philosophy, and religion is as necessary to the general reader of the present day as an acquaintance with the Latin and Greek classics was a generation or so ago. Immense strides have been made within the present century in these branches of learning; Sanskrit has been brought within the range of accurate philology, and its invaluable ancient literature thoroughly investigated; the language and sacred books of the Zoroastrians have been laid bare; Egyptian, Assyrian, and other records of the remote past have been deciphered, and a group of scholars speak of still more recondite Accadian and Hittite monuments; but the results of all the scholarship that has bee devoted to these subjects have been almost inaccessible to the public because they were contained for the most part in learned or expensive works, or scattered throughout the numbers of scientific periodicals. Messrs. Trübner and Co., in a spirit of enterprise which does them infinite credit, have determined to supply the constantly increasing want, and to give, in a popular, or, at least, a comprehensive form, all this mass of knowledge to the world."-Times.
