Full title: A complete view of the Shakspere controversy, concerning the authenticity and genuineness of manuscript matter affecting the works and biography of Shakspere, published by Mr. J. Payne Collier as the fruits of his researches. By C. M. Ingleby, LL. D. of Trinity College, Cambridge.
8vo. pp. xvi, 350, f. [1]. Original cloth.
Work widely described as the last word on the Perkins affair and Collier, covering practically all of the evolving case against text and perpetrator through 1859-1860. The treatise coolly recapitulates and assesses all philological, palaeographical, and provenential objections to Perkins, as well as the sequence of arguments pro and con in the press. The final part of the book is devoted to the Bridgewater and Dulwich manuscripts, ‘the forged State Paper,’ and a few other ‘suppositious and suspected documents.’ See A. & J. Freeman, John Payne Collier. Scholarship and Forgery in the Nineteenth Century. New Haven, 2004, I, pp. 820-823.
