Présentation de l'éditeur

Larousse, a page or so in DI sraeli, a few paragraphs in a curious old French book of 1845, Bibliothue de Poche par une Socie de gens des lettres et 4cru ls some scattered references in Notes and Queries. After collecting about a hundred items, he discussed the matter with Mr. R. S. Forsjrthe, who exchanged references and made some mention of this matter in a footnote to his volume on Shirley s Plays and the Elizabethan Drama. Some other friends have been gracious enough to assist, notably, Sir Sidney Lee, Mr. P. Henriquez Urena, Prof. Colbert Searles, and Prof. J. B. Fletcher. To all of these the most sincere thanks are due for the appearance of this paper. It is only with great difficulties that it finally emerges froni the press, begun in undergraduate days, continued during an instructorship at Columbia, carried on in the course of a year of study abroad, put into temporary shape amid teaching at Minnesota, read in part before the Central Division of the Modern Language A ssociation, and finally completed in the intervals of more active and necessary military life. I ts only excuse for publication is its unique quality, for it is the only study of the sort that has ever been attempted, and it is, I believe, reasonably complete.
