Descrizione del libro

This influential periodical, published 1810–29 and reissued here in forty volumes, was edited by the classical scholar and London publisher Abraham John Valpy (1787–1854). Later co-edited by Edmund Henry Barker (1788–1839), it was a rival to the Cambridge-based Museum criticum and a precursor of modern academic journals.
