    "Published May 1, 1810 by W.& T. Darton Holborn Hill, London".; Map of Australia (New Holland), includes New Zealand, New Hebrides, New Caledonia, Norfolk Isle and Lord Howes Island.; "Mr. Dix directs that the copyist should trace these maps through transparent paper, and pierce holes with a needle in order to draw a parallelogram. We do not consider these mechanical methods as very improving : but, the maps being mere outlines of each country, without any subdivisions or cities marked, the work may perhaps be rendered useful by requiring students to fill up their copies, and to insert some of the names and boundaries which Mr Dix omitted." -- The monthly review, volume 66, 1811, p. 437.; Map 42 from: Dix's juvenile atlas, containing forty four maps with plain directions for copying them, designed for junior classes : London : William Darton, 1811.; Also available online http://nla.gov.au/nla.map-rm4639

    Western medieval legal manuscripts in the collections of the University of Pennsylvania

    No full text
    Western legal manuscripts of the Middle Ages in North American collections are among the least known to scholars. The University of Pennsylvania has a rich collection of these texts, several of which were in the collection of the historian Henry Charles Lea. Included are works of civil law and canon law, as well as collections of papal letters and guides to pastoral care. The descriptions of most of these manuscripts in the catalog of Norman P. Zacour and Rudolf Hirsch are perfunctory, sometimes erring or omitting valuable information. Other manuscripts were added in recent years in the Lawrence J. Schoenberg Collection. Much of this material is being added to the Franklin online catalog of the University’s libraries, but researchers frequently do not search these digital resources. This article provides more complete guidance to the University’s medieval legal manuscripts than any of the existing catalogs offers, whether in print or online. It also provides updated bibliographic information in print or online. Every manuscript has been examined by the author in situ. Among the important works represented in the collection is the Panormia (a work of canon law often attributed to Ivo of Chartres). Authors present include the curialist Thomas of Capua, canonists Petrus de Braco, William of Pagula, Bernardus Raimundi, Adam of Aldersbach, Raymond of Peñafort, and civil lawyers Baldus de Ubaldis, and Bartolus de Saxoferrato. Three of these manuscripts were owned in the past by Sir Thomas Phillipps
