About

12mo. pp. xxviii, 116. Original cloth. Bookplate of Warwick Castle Shakespeare Library. Contains foldout facsimile frontispiece of a passage from Hamlet that Devonshire had sanctioned.


Monograph on the affair of the Perkins Folio, offering a somewhat sketchy chronology of the controversy from 1852-1853 to July 1859, with backward glances at provenance, mostly focused on the emendations themselves. Ingleby argued again that these emendations were derivative or patently inventive, insensitive or anachronistic. See A. & J. Freeman, John Payne Collier. Scholarship and Forgery in the Nineteenth Century. New Haven, 2004, I, pp. 739-741, 762, 797, 821.
