Riassunto

Excerpt from The Principles of Textual Criticism: With a List of All the Known Greek Uncials, and a Table Representing Graphically the Parts of the Text of the New Test Contained in Each

For a long period after the Elzevirs their text continued to be reprinted without change, but materials for an improve ment were constantly and laboriously accumulated. Walton's Polyglot, in 1657, still retained the same text, but added a valuable Apparatus Criticus. Sixteen fresh mss. Were collated for it under the direction of Archbishop Usher, and a few more by other persons. Several important versions were printed in parallel columns with the Greek text, and the pro Iegomena were a valuable aid in critical study. Bishop Fell, of Oxford, in an edition twenty years later, continued the work of collating mss. And Mill, in 1707, completed his work of thirty years, reproducing, indeed, the text of Stephens, but accompanied with thirty thousand various readings, compiled from a still more extensive examination of mss., large citations from the Fathers, and a comparison of the principal Oriental versions. Subsequently, Bentley made large preparations for a critical edition,which was never published but his collection of materials was of use to those who were to follow him.
