Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This book (hardcover) is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS. It

literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.
Lectures and Essays, edited by F. Haverfield, was first published
in 1895. It contains the published articles of Henry Nettleship
(1839 1893) on Latin literature not included in the collection
Lectures and Essays on Subjects Connected with Latin Literature and
Scholarship (1885), along with one unpublished essay. The volume
begins with a memoir written by Nettleship's wife, focusing on his
progressive approach towards educational reform and modernisation.
The collection includes essays on contemporary scholars such as the
Danish philologist Madvig (1804 1886); the poet Juvenal; the
earliest Latin grammarians; literary criticism in antiquity; and on
the state of English education in the nineteenth century, including
the influential essay 'On the Present Relations between Classical
Research and Classical Education in England'. This collection of
lectures and essays is a valuable source representing the work of
an eminent Victorian scholar and educational reformer who made a
lasting contribution to Latin studies.
