THE
PREFACE
OF THE
AUTHOR.
A
SI could not mention all the Hifto-
rians in the Body of this Work,
which would have engaged me
in an Affair, more tirefom and
tedious, than exact, I thought it neceffa-
ry to put a Catalogue of the most confide-
rable Hiftorians at the End of this Work.
I have generally obferved the fame Order,
as in the Method, and have also begun
with those, which are either Hiftorical
Draughts, or General Hiftories, and fhould be
read before the particular Hiftories. I defire
Excuse for my Freedom, in fo much charac-
terizing the Works, as well as pretending
to determine the beft Editions. My Ob-
fervations, being short and fuccinct, Í have

The PREFACE.

ments, and in their Brevity and Decifive-
ness have the nature of Oracles. But I
have not done this for Vanity's Sake, as
I well know, that nothing is more taking
than fuch a Modefty, which every virtu-
ous Man fhould profefs. I have thought
it my Duty not to firay wide of this Cha-
racter, which is more neceſſary to me, than
to almost any other Perfon, that I may
avoid fpeaking in a diffufe and languid
Manner, to which, I find, I am too natu-
rally inclined. I fee well, with how much
Eafe 1 could have made a long and tedi-
ous Work, and I doubt not but my Readers
are fenfible of the Violence I used to my
Self, to keep within the prefent narrow
Limits.
Let none be furprized, if they find fome
Works mentioned more than once; I have
not done this by Neglect, so much as to
range fome Works under feveral Claffes,
which belong to feveral Provinces, or treat
on different Subjects. I have been rather
willing to make Repetitions, although it may
feem ufelefs, than give Room to think, that
I have omitted one neceffary Book. But
this does not occur fo often, as to tire
out the Attention and Diligence of my Rea-
ders.

ly a Tranſlation, as is that printed in the Penus Artis

I-
Ubertus Folieta de Ratione fcribenda Hiftoria, 4to;
Romæ 1574. This is one of the ableft Writers of I
taly, and is reprinted in the Penus, &c. as well as a-
mongſt the Author's Works.
Antonius Riccobonus de Hiftoria, 8vo. Venetiis
1568. Though Mr. Frefnoy fays this is printed in
the Penus, I do not find any fuch Treatife therein.
Paulus Benius de Hiftoria. 4to. Venetiis 1607, &
1611. This Work is little enquired after.
Joan. Cofta de confcribenda rerum Hiftoria. 4to. Cæfar-
Auguftæ 1591. This Piece is little looked after,
as little known, and lefs read.
Sebaftianus Maccius de Hiftoricis Libri III. in 4tc.
Venetiis 1613. This is as little valued as the laft.
Luis Cabrera de Cordova Hiftoria para entendarla, y
efcrivirla, 4to. Madrit, 1611.
Le Roy, des Vertus & des Vices de l'Hiftoire, & de
la maniere de la bien ecrire, 40. Paris 1620. This is not
much read.
Agoſtino Maſcardi dell' Arte Iftorica Trattati, 4to.
in Roma 1636. This is a curious Piece, though
ſomewhat tedious and long. Paul Pirani has made a
Continuation at Venice in 1646, 4to. and 1662, 120.
Our Author Mafcardi, though efteemed the beſt Pen
of Italy in his time, by Printing at his own Expence
this Piece, had much damaged himſelf, had not Cardi-

Aleffandro Sardo; Precetti ftorici, 8vo. in Venezia
1586. Theſe are Rules for writing of Hiftory,

M. De la Motthe le Vayer, Difcours de l'Hiftoire,
in 8vo. Paris 1636. Idem 1647. Or in his Works
printed together in Folio, or in 120. The fame Au-
thor has wrote a Difcourfe concerning the Uncertain-
ty of Hiſtory, in which, though he may perhaps have
advanced his Notions too far, yet we cannot deny
but at the Bottom there is fome Foundation.
Le P. Le Moyne; de l'Hiftoire, 120. Paris 1670.
This Book has never been well confidered, and at
prefent is little fearched for.

Paris. This excellent Differtation is become very fcarce.
M. De Cordemoy; de la maniere d'ecrire l'Hiftoire.
This Piece wrote with Judgement, is to be found
amongſt the Works of Mr. Cordemoy, or in a Collec-
tion of the fame Author printed at Paris in 120, under
the Title of a Treatife of Metaphyficks.

Read the Preface of the former Volume concerning
this Author. There have been alfo other Editions of
this Work, but not on this Account are we to efteem
it the more. This Author, who was a Canon of the
Order of St. Benedict, has printed the Defcription of
the World, wrote by Daviti, in fix Volumes, a Work
of equal Stupidity with its Author. He afterwards
turned Huguenot, and retired into Holland, where he
has handed into the World fome ill wrote Pamphlets.

Idem in 120. Amfterdam 1711. 4 Vol. We have ta-

de Meaux, in 4to. and in 120. The Edition
in 4to is the most beautiful and fcarce; but the Con-

long expected that begun by the late Right Reverend
the Bishop of Meaux himfelf; left unfiniſhed.
This Work was turned into Itakan, and printed in

Dionyfii Petavii Rationarium Temporum, 120. Paris.

Leyden in 1710.

is fcarce and beautiful, and that of Franeker, though
very incorrect, exceeds that of Leipfick. This is a large
Fund of Learning. Mr. Menckenius thinks the Au-
thor miſtaken in his Cenfure of his Leipfick Edition,
which he fays is correct, and was reviſed by a Man
of good Learning.
Jacobi Ufferii Annales utriufque Teftamenti, fol.

and fome other Pieces.
Jofephi Scaligeri Opus de Emendatione Temporum, fol.

yet is it not read fo much as it fhould be, perhaps be-

The Method this laft follows is very fingular, he is no

This is no extraordinary Book, nor needed to have
been re-printed fo often.
If our Author runs not out fo as Vignier and others,
on the antient Hiſtory, his Defign was not to rake into
high Antiquity, but rather to launch out into the more
modern. This is a very ufeful Piece to all fuch who
look after the Originals and Priviledges of Nations.
And the ten Years Continuation in the Leipfick Edi-
tion, were wrote by Otho Menckenius, my Father.

in the Original. Mr. Imhoff, a Counsellor of Sultz-
bach is the Author, and gives us an exact Hiſtory

The Hiftorical Labyrinth. Lipf. 1701. fol. in High
Dutch. Zeigler, whofe Name appears in the Frontif-
piece of this Book, left only an imperfect Sketch,
found after his Death amongſt his Papers. To which,
an able Man put the laft Hand, and published it as
it appears at prefent. This is a Work equally di-
verting and inftructive, in which he defcribes what
has paſſed moſt remarkable in Europe, in a moft neat
concife Style, without wearying his Reader. In a
fhort Time we are promifed the third and fourth
Volumes.
John Hubner. Short Questions of Political History.
Lipf. 1702. 1703. 10 vol. 120. This univerfal Hif-
tory was fo well received by the publick, that the
Bookfeller foon reprinted it feveral Times. It is diffi-
cult fufficiently to commend the Method of this
Author, who has a wonderful Talent in unravelling
great Events, and relating them with a Clearnefs ad-
apted to every Capacity; and in this he is almoft
inimitable. Befides, we are obliged to him for hist
moſt uſeful Labours in Geography and Heraldry, which
we ſhall mention in their proper Place. In 1709,
He began a fhort and fuccinct Relation of what
happened the Year before, under the Title of a Sup-
plement to his Hiftorical, Geographical, and Genea-
logical Queftions, which he continues yearly.

TOLOMEI Geographia in Theatro Geographico
Petri Bertii, fol. Amftelod. 1618. This is the
beſt Edition of Ptolomy, and is very rare. We have
an Edition of Ptolomy in Italian collated, corrected, and
augmented with Figures and Notes by Anthony Ma-
gini, and printed at Venice 1598, fol. and before by
Jerome Rufcelli, who added an Explanation and Fi-
gures in two Volumes at Venice in 1566 and 1599, 4to.
The Edition by Magini is the moſt eſteemed, and the
Plates are Engraven by Jerome Porri.
Strabonis Geographia ab Ifaaco Cafaubono, fol. Ge-
nevæ 1587. Idem, fol. Paris 1620. or in fol. Amftelod.
2 Vol. 1707. This is a moft excellent Geography,
and the laft Édition is the moſt beautiful, as augment-
ed with fome Treatifes, and better regulated than the
first; notwithſtanding this, the Learned have always
preferred the Editions of Geneva and Paris. It was
tranſlated into Italian by Alphonfus Bonacciuoli, and print-
ed in two Volumes in 4to, in 1562.

to prove that the Book of Exerciſes was not the Work
of St. Ignatius, but of Cisneros, a Spanish Benedictine
Monk; but fo ill does he maintain his Argument,
that it has not raiſed the leaft doubt againſt the gene-

be obferved, that the former Part of Dr. Gale's Work
is very laboured; but it is well known, that he him-
felf acknowledged, that he could not carry on the Work
according to his Defign, becaufe of the Troubles that
broke out in the Nation. We have an Italian Tranf
lation by Count Matteo Maria Boiardo, in 8vo. Ve-

French, recommended it to his Counfellours, and of-

Opinion of many of the Learned it is very incorrect.
The French Tranflation by Mr. Amyot, 150 Years
fince, has a certain beautiful Air, which time has no
ways injured. The two Editions by Vafcofan are
good, but that in 8vo. in thirteen Volumes, is the
moft fearched for, and is very dear as well as fcarce.
Several other Editions in different Sizes have been
made of this Author in 8vo. and fol. The Abbće
Tallemont has attempted a new Tranflation, or rather
Paraphrafe on the Lives of Plutarch, but he well de-
ferves the Title given him of a ſtupid Mimick of
Mr. Amyot. It is reported that Mr. Meziriac has
made a new Tranſlation not yet publiſhed: And Da-
cier has begun, and printed one Volume before 1716,
which the World wishes to fee finifhed. Plutarch's
Works have had ſeveral Editions in the Italian Lan-
guage. Louis Domenichi tranflated the Lives, whofe
beautiful Edition on a Royal Paper was printed by
Giolito at Venice, in two Volumes, 4to. 1565, into
English. The Lives were firft tranflated, and printed at

nothing but the Beauty of the Types and its Portable-

learned Bookfellers in Europe. The Variorum Edition
of 1679, is one of the beft; that printed by Elzevir
in 1645, is neat, portable, and much preferable to
another by Elzevir in 1634. The Edition of Doujat
was reprinted at Venice in 1714 and 1715, much more
correct than that at Paris, with feveral Figures of the
famous Men, the Notes and exact Index of Le Clerc.

& 1687, 4 Vol. This Author was tranflated into
French by Mr. Ablancourt, and Amelot de la iouffaye.
The Tranflation of the firſt, rather a Paraphrate, is
much eſteemed: That by Amelot is entirely literal,
and a little rough, and no ways valuable but for the
political Notes: It was tranflated into English by
all the Latin Editions we have
taken Notice of are good, except that Ad Ufum Del-
phini, which is neither valued nor deferves to be e-
fteemed. The Text of the Edition by Ryckius is ve-
ry exact, after that we have one by Gronovius, general-
ly termed the Variorum. After this we may rank an
Edition printed by Elzevir in 1640, though thofe
who are fond of thefe Pocket Volumes without Rea-
fon, prefer that printed by the fame Elzevir in 1634.
This laft was Revifed by Grotius, and is better Piels-
work than that of 1634, committed to the Care of

may obferve, that this is the fame Book which the
Author mentions hereafter under the Title of eÆnee
Sylvii vita Friderici III. As the Undertaker who print-
ed this Collection under this Title in the Year
1685, found his Expectations baulked, he changed
it in 1702, therefore in many Libraries they have
Duplicates under different Title Pages.

Henrici Canifii Lectiones Antiqua, in 4to. Ingolfta-
di 1601, in 6 Vol. This Collection, befides many
Pieces of Ecclefiaftical Hiftory, contains many mate-
rial Memoirs of German Civil Hiftory. Being become
very ſcarce for fifty Years paft, Mr. James Bafnage,
Paſtor of a Congregation at the Hague, reprinted it
with very ufeful Notes. He divides the whole into
an eafy and natural Method, and has compared many
of the Papers with the Original Manuſcripts in feveral
places, which Canifius had not an Opportunity to
confult. A great Progrefs was actually made in the
Prefs in 1716. Though the Hiftory of Germany has
more Writers in its Collection than any other Part of
Europe, and it is to be wished we had more, particularly
thofe promifed by Lambecius, Neffel, Tentzel, and Weber.
I am furprized that the Bookfellers of Francfort, or
Holland, who have printed the Antiquities of feveral
particular Parts of Italy, have had no Inclination to
make a Collection of what relates to Germany, which
though it filled thirty Volumes in Folio, would be
a more vendible Commodity than the Grecian and
Roman Antiquities. Mr. Mencken applauds Frefnoy's
Scheme on this Head, and affures us, that there were
Bookfellers at Leipfick, who only waited an Opportų-
ty favourable to them to put this Project in Execution.

of the Counts of Hohenzollern. The Empire of Ger-
many abounding in Collections of Hiftorians, has not
one good general Hiſtory, as none of thoſe I have men-
tioned are fatisfactory, and the Germans feem unequal
to undertake any exact Hiftory of their own Nation :
As they are fonder of Abridgements, Differtations,

This is a moft curious and fcarce Book, and to be on-
ly found in the beft Libraries. It is to be obferved,
that the Edition at Francfort of 1617 and 1618, with-
out the Figures, is much fuperiour to that at Gothe.
It is thought that the Author in collecting thefe Acts,
had in view the Injuftice done in the Deprivation of
John Frederick, Elector of Saxony: We have at pre-
fent but fix Books, a feventh being feized in the

Weimar were of great Ufe.

1709. Father Maffen, who was fixty-five Years
of Age, when he finished his Work, feems to have
applied to it with great Care: His Thoughts are
ſtrong, and his Style equal to his Notions of Things.
He writes like a true Hiftorian, and Mafter of the
Latin Diction.

The Count Revenbuller, a Privy-Countejlour to the
Emperour Ferdinand II. was the Author. As he was
employed in State-Affairs, his Defign was to give in
twelve Volumes an Account of what had paffed from

he deferves Credit; and although he was a Partizan of

Vol. This Hiftory, as it is wrote in a languid and

of Mr. Baffempiere on the Lives of enry IV. and
i
Louis XIII. thould be added. This Author wrote
against Mr. Du Serres, the Inventaire des Erreurs &

impartial. His Body of Hiftory, though very good,
is not fo much valued as his Abridgement. The firft
Edition, published in 1643, is more valuable than
that of 1685. In this laft, he was obliged to omit
fome bold Paffages, which favoured too much of Re-
publicanifm. The laft Edition is fuller in his Hifto-
ry
of France before Clodoveus; and in other Pieces in-
ferted in the Body of the Work. The Abridgement
of Mezeray is much prized, and its Chronology is
famed for its Exactnefs. The Editions here men-
tioned are the beft. That of 1668 is very rare,
and bears a great Price. Next to this is the Edi-
tion printed in Holland in 1673. The others bear

an equal Reputation. The Sincerity, or to speak
more properly, the Boldneſs of this Author, made
him lofe his Penfion of Hiftoriographer of France.
He is deficient only in a Want of Style, in which
he is very ſtiff. Of the Abridgement there are fe-
veral Editions printed at Paris in Quarto and Twelves.
But here many Paffages are left out, and others add-
ed. At the beginning of the Dutch Edition is reprint
ed his Hiftory before Clovis, which is at the begin-
ning of his Body of Hiſtory, printed in the Year
1685.
M. de Cordemoy, Hiftoire de France, in fol. Pa-

He begins with Clovis, and ends at the Death of Henry
IV. This Author has well obferved the Rules he
lays down in his excellent Preface concerning a Mc-
thod of writing Hiftory. He does not affect, like
Varillas, to enter deep into the furprizing Parts, but
relates all in fo fine an Order, and fo judicious a Style,
as never to be tedious to his Reader. His greateſt
Fault is, that we do not obferve that Impartiality re-
markable in Thuanus, when he fpeaks of the Protef
tants. I do not here take any Notice of feveral compen-
dious Hiſtories of France, as they are very unexact, and

Century, there was a great Controverfy concerning
the Third Race of the French Kings; as the Partizans
of the League, Enemies to this Race endeavoured all
they could, to prove, that Hugh Capet, and all his Suc-
ceffors, were Ufurpers to the Crown of France. They
made loud Exclamations, that this Kingdom was wreft-
ed from the Houfe of Lorain by Hugh Capet. But
the Battle of Ivry, in which Henry the Fourth was
Conqueror, was a ftronger Argument than all their
Paper War, that this Prince was the true and lawful
Defcendant from the antient Kings of France.

and with Reafon is he courted by the beft Politicians.
We have here taken Notice of the beft Editions; that
by Elzevir is neat and portable; but none of them are
comparable for Correctness, Exactnefs, felect Notes,
and Authorities to that publiſhed by Mr. Godefroy.
That printed at the Louvre is very pompous and
fcarce; and that in 8vo. at Bruffels, is without Compa-
rifon the moſt correct, and full. It was published there,
by Mr. Godefroy, Director of the Chamber of Ac-
counts at Life, who added feveral Corrections, Notes,
and Authorities from the Papers of Mr. Denis Code-
froy, his Father.

as it will, it must be confeffed that Sleidan was as bad a

would imagine, this Hiftory came down to 1580,
and we know the Author defigned it fo low, but his
Death prevented him, ſo that it reaches only to 1567.

Son-in-Law to the famous Robert Stephens. This Edi-

many excellent Paffages were omitted; then fhould
we have the two Volumes printed at Erouart, and the
Forth and Fifth of the Edition at Geneva. Here
fhould be added the little Piece, entituled, THUANUS
RESTITUTUS, which is a Collection of the caftrated
and altered Paffages in Thuanus's Hiftory. There are
allo fome Manufcripts of thefe Alterations much more
full, and thoſe who have an Opportunity of a Tran-
fcript, fhould not flip it. John Baptift Machaut is
faid to be the Author of a Book publiſhed at Ingol-
ftad, under the fictitious Name of J. B. Gallus, which
was wrote againft Thuanus, foon after its Publication;
and, according to the Opinion of Mr. Caftelet at Pa-
ris, deferves a Reading. Again, as Thuanus has ftrange-
ly changed the French Names into Latin, a Dictiona-
ry was neceffary to explain them, and this is the Index
publiſhed at Ceneva in 1634, and Reprinted in Ger-
wany under the Title of, Clavis Hiftorie THUANE.
It is wonderful that fo many thouſand worthless Books
meet with fuch a Variety of Editions, and that none
have attempted a good Edition of this fo ufeful and
valuable Hiftory, which, in my Opinion, would be
much better than that vaft Corpus of Roman Antiquities,
which Gravius has printed in Holland. Many Tranflati-
ons of this Hifterin have been defigned, but none have
pufued fo far as Mr. Ryer, who has tranflated above
half, though his Verfion is not much fought for, bc-
cauf, as is objected, an unfinished Piece.

his Poffeffion a valuable Manuſcript-Defcription of the
Maffacre on St. Bartholomew's Day, wrote in Latin
by a German Nobleman, Joh. Williams of Bonheim,
who was an Eye-witneſs of what was done at Orleans:
I know no Fact in Hiftory that fo much diſcovers a
bafe, inhumane Bigotry, as this barbarous Maſſacre,
which indeed, good and impartial Men of the Romish
Communion are very much aſhamed of, though how
far it was countenanced, if not commanded by Charles
IX. and Applauded afterwards at Rome by Pope Gre
gory XIII. let the famed Medal of HUGONOTORUM

Le Mercure Francois, ou la Suite de l'Hiftoire de la
Paix depuis 1605, juſqu' en 1638, in 8vo. Paris Ri-
chier, 25 Vol. This Collection is one of the moſt
curious we have: Although the Work it felf often
flags, there are preferved excellent Papers and Memoirs,
at that time publiſhed. It is of good Ufe to any
who would enter deep into the Hiftory of this time.
There are in it ſome bold Paffages. The Collector
was Mr. Peter Richier, a Bookfeller, and afterwards
put together by Mr. Malingre, and others. It was
defigned as a Continuation to the Chronologie Septennaire
of Mr. Cayet. The latter Volumes are very fcarce,
the firſt very common. John Richier publiſhed the
firft Volume, and Stephen Richier the Eighteen follow-
ing, and Claude Malingre continued it, though not
with an equal Succefs.
Memoires de la Regence de la Reine Marie de Medi-
cis, in 120. Paris 1666. Theſe Memoirs are very
curious, and highly inftructive. They are faid to
have been wrote by Cardinal Richelieu, whofe high
Poft and Character feemed to fhine throughout, but
it was afterwards difcovered to be Mr. Francis d'Etrée.
The Letter at the beginning is by Father Le Moyne.

he comes no lower than the Year 1617, he is at pre-
dent but little eſteemed.

fhewed the difference of Pens. That of Gramont is
a ftrong Incenfe of Flattery offered to Cardinal Riche-

Charles Pernard Hiftoire du Roy Louis XIII. in fol.
Paris 1646. Before this Book the Author had pub-
liſhed another, entituled, Hiftoire des Guerres du Roy
Lovis XIII. contre les Religionaires Rebelles, of which
were printed only two Copies, which were prefented to
the King. This obtained him the Poft of Hiftoricgra
pher-Royal. As his Hiftory was fent into the World
after his Death, a learned Man wrote a Preface to it,
in which he treats of the Difference between the
Hiftoriographers of the Crown, and thofe of the King-
dom of France.

This is the first Edition of the Memoirs before men-

1688, is far the beft: Theſe four Letters. of the Ti-
tle fignify the Memoirs of Mr. de la Rochefoucault, but
the Heirs of this Gentleman have difavowed thefe Me-
moirs: I must not forget here what the Journaliſts of
Paris in June 1707, have noticed, that it has been fre-
quently thought that Mr. Rochefoucault was a fecret
Interpreter of Tacitus, and that his Memoirs were only
the fine Paffages of that Author well tacked together.

Le Veritable Pere Jofeph Capucin, contenant l'Hiftoire
Anecdote du Cardinal de Richelieu, in 120. à S. Jean de
Maurienne, viz. in Rouen 1704. Theſe two Works,
faid to be of the fame Author, give a very different
Character of their Subject. The firft reprefents Fa-
ther Jofeph as a good Man, who was always at his
Devotions, and did nothing but with a good view.
On the other Hand, the fecond paints him as a Po-
litician and Courtier.
Hiftoire des Diables de Loudun, in 120. Amfterdam
1693. This is a curious and very fingular Piece of
Hiftory, which made much Noife in France, and if

Though this Book bears the Name of Mr. Dupuy,
it is not all his, but partly wrote by Mr. Theodore Co-
defroy. This is now confirmed from the Original
Manufcript in the King's Library at Paris. Here are
preferved ſeveral Pieces wrote by an Amanuenfis of Mr.
Godefroy, where we find his Name in the Middle of
the firft blank Leaf before each Book, which has been
very carefully attempted to be erafed with a Pen-
knife; but on the out-fide of the Book, under the
Title, are the two Letters T. G. wrote by Theodore Go-
defroy, the fame Mark which he put to all the Manu-
fcripts of his own Compofition. Notwithſtanding all
this, Mr. Dupuy reaped much Honour for the moft

of France.

wrote the Ten following, after thefe were published,
and the Edition at Mentz contains the whole Work, di-
vided into Thirty Books. As Mariana in this Work goes
not beyond Ferdinand the Catholick, it will be neceffary
to have a ſmall Piece wrote by Mariana himfelf, entituled,
Summarium de Rebus Hifpania, in which he carries on
his Hiftory from the Year 1515, to 1612. This
Piece was printed at Mentz in 1619, and is to be
met with at the End of feveral of the Copies of the
Hiftory of the Mentz Edition. This Writer, who
pares not Kings themfelves, when they were bad,
has tranflated his Hiftory into Spanish, and the Verfi-
on is as much efteemed as the Original Latin. He
has been charged with too much Moderation thewn
to the French, and to Proteftantifm, and accuſed of fe-
veral Miftakes in Geography.

two particular Species of Devotion, which they never
give up; their firſt darling Notion is the Arrival and
Preaching of St. James in Spain, and the fecond is their
prodigious Regard to a particular Blessed Virgin [Nuestra
Senora del Pilar] in Saragoffa. Thefe are Articles of fo
great Importance in Spain, that one who disbelieves
them, would be efteemed an Heretick: And the Spa-
niards have wrote more Treatifes in Support of thefe
two Points, than in Defence of the moſt important
Articles of Faith: Even Mariana himſelf, amongſt
his Theological Pieces, printed at Cologne in 1609,
in Folio, has fomething on the Subject.

This is the first Edition of the Chronicle of Dex-
ter, and fome think that Calderoni was one of the chief
Managers of this Forgery. Mr. Mencken fays, that
the Author might have eafily known, that this falfe
Coiner was Hieronymus Romanus Higuera, and not Cal-
dereni, who was very much pleafed with the Notion
of having recovered thefe antient Manufcript Chroni-
cles, which had fo long lain hid, as Dexter lived in the
Fifth, Braulius in the Seventh, and Heleca in the Ninth
Century. Higuera publiſhed alfo two other Pieces of
the like Nature, of which take the following Ti-
tles.

have ftole the Chronicon Hauberti, an Author of the
Ninth Century, from the Treasure of the Church of
St. Denis of Paris, fent it to Gregorius de Argaez his
Friend in Spain, who published it in Spanish, under
the afore-mentioned Title. But here the Affair did
not end. As Andrew Garfias of Molina, (whofe true
Name was Francis Andrew de Palacios,) and Molina de-
nying the Authentickness of this Book: Argacz, to
defend it from farther Attacks, added a fourth Vo-
lume, in which he inferted another fpurious Chroni-
cle of Liberatus, wrote in Spanish, which comes down
to 610; but this Forgery was alfo foon diſcovered.

that the Venetian Edition was the First, and the Notes
of the Author following only ferve to confound Man-
kind.
Onuphrius Panvinius de Vitis Romanorum Pontifi-
cum, in 4to. Coloniæ 1626. This may be met with
in the Edition of Platina, printed at Cologn in 1625,
and of it there are other fpurious Editions, but this I havd
mentioned is the moft valuable, as the Edition at Ve
nice in 1557, is very incorrect, and full of Erreurs.
That which Panvinius himſelf published at Venice in
the Year 1566, is the beſt.
Robertus Barns de Vitis Romanorum Pontificum c
Joannis Balæi Romanorum Pontificum Alta, in Svo.
Lugduni Batavor. 1615. This is the beft Edition of
theſe two Works, the firft of which is very good.
Joannes Stella de Vitis & Moribus Pontificum, in 8vo.
Venet. 1503. This is a valuable, tho' little known book.
Papirius Maffonus de Epifcopis Urbis, in 4to. Paris
1586. This Author has undertaken to give us the
Omiffions of Platina, and others.
Andre du Chefne: Hiftoire des Papes, in fol. Paris
1658, 2 Vol. This Book, of which this is the beſt
Edition, is not much efteemed.

This Book is valued, affords us good general Memoirs
of the Popes and Cardinals, with feveral Medals well
executed.

This Piece is collected from the beſt Authors Italy
boaſts, ſuch as Sigonius, Jovius, and Guicciardini, and is
compiled with more Sincerity than good Manners, where
the Drift of the Author is vifible against Image Worship,
which he terms Superftition, in a Piece dedicated to d
Roman Catholick Princefs: His Preface is moftly a Pa-
negyrick on Scotland, his Native Country, and her
learned Heroes, and reprefenting Ferrara unfortunate
only in being deprived of her Native Prince's Refi
dence, in that Defect (as he thinks) too much refem-
bling Scotland: The Author is fo much Bigotted to
the Scotch Title of Albany, that he ftudioufly forgets
the Superiour, that of Tork, which we may Pardon his
placing laft.

Girolamo Bardi: Vittoria Navale ottenuta dalla Re-
publica Veneziana contra Federico I. Imperatore per la
Reftituzione del Papa Aleſſandro III. in 4to. Ven. 1584,
and in 4to. 1619. This Hiftory of Pope Alexander
III. has given Birth to feveral Treatifes, between the
Venetians and Germans; and indeed the Truth of it
(though no Honour to the Pope) is a mighty Advan-
tage to the Republick, as the claims the Dominion of
the Adriatick Sea from a Ceffion then made, the con-
fequence of their Victory over the Emperor Frederick I.
This is indeed denied by Mr. Ameblot, who founds
their Dominion on a much more forcible Argument,
that of Ratio Ultima Regum, Power: And time was,
when the See of Rome, during the Venetian Interdict,
(thundered out by Pope Urban VIII.) thought fit to
Erale the Infcription in Favour of themfelves, as well as
the Republick, painted under a Repreſentation in Fresco
on the Walls of the Vatican Palace, fince indeed reſtored
by Innocent X. a Pontiff more favourable to theirs, and
better acquainted with his own Intereft, which his
Predeceffor by this Fact very much prejudiced.

Satire, yet handled with fuch Moderation, as to ex-
tort Applaufe: The Sufpicion fell on the Court of
Rome, and the greateſt Men expected, as well as feared,
the Effects of it. Father Paul, who had been victorious.
ever before, declared, that this Piece was by no Means.
to be anſwered, it being inconvenient and dangerous
to enlighten the World in Matters, which fhould ftill

This Book is much valued by all who have any
Regard to the publick Liberty againſt the Papal En-
croachments, which this Author very justly, and
with equal Warmth oppofes, and plainly proves the
Monaftick Wealth to be the Caufe of the great Poverty
of this Kingdom. The Author was Excommunicated,
and his Book prohibited at Rome, while he was obli-
ged to retire to the Imperial Court at Pienna, by
whom he was not very warmly received, though he
fo well defends their Rights. All the Care imagina-
ble is taken to fupprefs this Book, and it is already
very rare and dear. A Propofal has been lately pub-
lifhed for a Tranflation by Captain Ogilvie.

by the greateſt modern Orator Italy boaſts, Father
Paul Segneri, and printed in two Volumes in quarto
at Rome in 1638, with Figures, Plans, c. He is

This Work (fays our Author) is become rare, becaufe
it was fuppreffed by the English, as it contains all the
Titles to the Church Lands, which were feized on at
the Change of Religion under King Henry VIII. and
they poffibly fear thefe Charters may be a Title and
Information for a future Reftitution, but notwith-
ftanding this groundleſs and idle Opinion may have
fome Weight with weaker Heads; yet, I think, the
Scarcity of this Work amongſt us may be attributed
to two Reaſons, one the Commonnefs of them in the
Libraries (particularly of English Sæculars and Religi
ous) abroad, and the Deftruction of the greateft Part
of the Impreffion of the laft Volume by an accidental
Fire Add to this, the Impreffions themfelves were
not numerous, as the Favourers of this kind of Know-
ledge are but few.

L'Origine de la tres-illuftre Maifon de Lorraine, avec
un abrege de l'Hiftoire de fes Princes, in 8vo. Toul
1704. This Work, as has been before hinted, is
the Labour of Father Benedict of Toul, a Religious
of the Capuchin Order in Lorrain: His Notions are
good, he deferts the common Lorrain Fables, and
ticks to the most probable Conjectures as to this Fa-
mily: Tho' it is a Work much above the Genius of
a Capuchin, yet it has but little Merit to recommend
it felf.

de cette Illuftre Maifon imprime à Berlin, in 120. Toul

are feveral curious Papers, tho' its Stile is tedious.
Traite Hiftorique, & Critique de l'Origine, & de la
Genealogic de la Afaifon de Lorraine par le Sr de Balei-
court, Svo. Berlin 1712. The Name of Baleicourt in
the Title of this Book is fictitious, and the true Au-
thor was Father Hugh of the Order of Premonftra-
tenfes of Lorrain. The Syftem of this Work is the
fame with that of Father Benedict, and the best French
Hiftorians, who affirm the Houfe of Lorrain to be
defcended from one of the Prime Officers of the Kings
of France of the firft Race. This Book, tho' pre-
ferable to the former, is full of bold Paffages, for
which the Parliament of Paris condemned it September
17. 1712. It was printed at Nancy, not Berlin,
where an Author would not have dared to treat
crowned Heads with fo little Refpect, as this Author.
It will be proper to read fome judicious Obferva-
tions made by Father Benedict on this Book, in his
Supplement to the Hiftory of Lorrain.
