The Cambridge Shakespeare was published in nine volumes between
1863 and 1866. Its careful editorial principles, attractive page
design and elegant typography have withstood the test of time. This
text was based on a thorough collation of the four Folios and of
all the Quarto editions of the separate plays, the base text being
the 1623 Folio. The critical apparatus appears at the foot of the
page, but for passages where the Quarto differs significantly the
entire Quarto text appears in small type after the received text.
Notes at the end of each play explain variants, emendations, and
passages of unusual difficulty or interest. Grammar and metre were
generally left unchanged by the editors, but punctuation was
normalised and nineteenth-century orthography was adopted instead
of the variable Elizabethan spelling. In a bold move for a
Victorian edition, the editors restored various 'profane'
expressions where metre or sense demanded it.

This short book derives from an article published in the periodical
Vacation Tourists and Notes of Travel, edited by Francis Galton, in
1860. W. G. Clark (1821-78) was most famous as co-editor of the
Cambridge Shakespeare, but was originally a classical scholar,
whose Peloponnesus (1858) is also reissued in this series. This
lively account of a critical period in Italian history, 'during the
occurrence of events so strange and sudden that they resembled
incidents of a romantic melodrama rather than real history',
deliberately avoids the usual landscapes, ruins and peasants to
give a day-by-day description of events in Naples at the time when
Garibaldi had arrived in the city during his campaign for the
liberation of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. However, as well as
narrating political and military developments, Clark introduces
some picturesque notes, including an account of the famous
'miracle' of the liquefaction of St Gennaro's blood.
Founded in 1868 by the Cambridge scholars John Eyton Bickersteth
Mayor (1825 1910), William George Clark (1821 78), and William
Aldis Wright (1831 1914), this biannual journal was a successor to
The Journal of Classical and Sacred Philology (also reissued in the
Cambridge Library Collection). Unlike its short-lived precursor, it
survived for more than half a century, until 1920, spanning the
period in which specialised academic journals developed from more
general literary reviews. Predominantly classical in subject
matter, with contributions from such scholars as J. P. Postgate,
Robinson Ellis and A. E. Housman, the journal also contains
articles on historical and literary themes across the 35 volumes,
illuminating the growth and scope of philology as a discipline
during this period. Volume 1, comprising issues 1 and 2, was
published in 1868.

William George Clark (1821 78) is probably best remembered as the
co-editor (with W. Aldis Wright) of the Cambridge Shakespeare (1863
6; also reissued in this series). A fellow of Trinity College,
Cambridge, he was a classical and literary scholar and editor, but
travelled widely in his vacations, and this work, first published
in 1858, is an account of a tour of Greece undertaken in 1856 with
W. H. Thompson (1810 86), who later succeeded William Whewell as
Master of Trinity. Clark's plan was to visit the archaeological
sites of the Peloponnese using W. M. Leake's various surveys as a
guide and comparing Leake's observations and his own with those of
the ancient traveller Pausanias. The result is an engaging
combination of travel narrative and serious archaeological and
topographical research backed up by a profound knowledge of
classical literature. It remains an interesting resource for those
studying the history of Greek archaeology.
