Euphues the Anatomy of Wit And Euphues and His England Classic Reprint by John Lyly Book PDF Summary
Excerpt from Euphues, the Anatomy of Wit, And, Euphues and His England IT is proper to make a statement concerning the division of editorial labours and responsibilities in the present work. It was begun by Mr. Clemons, who devoted scrupulous care to the production of the text - the first text of the Euphues in modern spelling-and punctuation. The collation of texts stands almost as he left it. But in the process of writing the notes, evidence has sometimes come to me which has led me to prefer a diļ¬erent reading, or to desire emendation of the text for the removal of errors in the early editions, or to disapprove of emendations introduced (or accepted from other modern editors) by Mr. Clemons. In these cases I have thought it necessary to make the changes in Mr. Clemons' manuscript which my judgment approved and I must therefore assume responsibility for doubt ful points in the text and textual notes. Before he had pro ceeded further, Mr. Clemons decided to devote his life to work in the Protestant Missionary College at Nan King, China and at his suggestion I undertook to complete the edition. I alone am responsible for the Introduction and the Notes, therefore, and I wish to make some explanations concerning each of these sections of the book.
