PREFACE
TH IS bibliography h as been com piled With th e view
of supplem enting existi ng text books on E ngl ish
l iterary history, and assisting students in preparingfor exam inations in B ibl iography and Literature .
I t Will al so b e found of service to those who are work
ing for th e profess ional exam i nations of th e L ibrary
Association .
S tudents of literature , m ore particularly of E nglish
literature, experience m uch d i fficul ty in tracing th e
outside influences Which at various periods , or, per
haps , speaking m ore correctly, at al l pe riods, have
afiec ted or m oulded our l iterature . Th e great
foreign classics have exercised a di rect and decided
influenc e upon E nglish l i terature and th e object of
this bib liography is to give in concise form th e authors
and ti tles, translati ons and dates of the first E nglish
translations of th e chi ef foreign authors , and inci
dental ly to enable students to note the efiec t of such
translations on the works of m any of our great
im aginative writers .
So far as it has been poss ible to discover, no work
of thi s kind exists in thi s country . S tudents are
frequentl y rem inded of the Special need for such a
b ib liography as thi s , and to al l interested in th e sub
jec t it should serve a. use ful purpose , and perhaps
help to fil l a gap in literary bib liography .
V
vi PREFACE
S tudents have been asked such questions as
give the date of th e first translation into E nglish of
Don Quixote, of The A rabi an Ni ghts, B occaccio’s
Decam eron , or of Hom er . Such questions as these
natural ly involve som e inquiry and research on th e
part of the student , and occupy a larger am ount
of tim e than is necessary for the purpose . Hence the
necessity for a brief bibliography of thi s nature ,
wh ich wil l show at a glance th e first translations into
E nglish of the m ost im portant foreign classics , and
save inquirers the fatigue of searching catalogues ,
bibl iograph ies and sim i lar works .
The d ictionary form of arrangem ent has been
ad opted with the authors in alphabetical order .
In som e instances a work has been noti ced twice ,
in wh ich case the first entry will generally b e
found to b e an ed ition, either issued in an incom plete
form , or with a doubtful date . I t has also b een
found necessary to enum erate in nearly all cases the
separate works of each author ; th e com plete works
not appearing till a m uch later tim e . The date of
original pub lication has occasionally been given in
brackets , and where a date is seen in square b rackets
it denotes th e approxim ate date of publication .
The anthologies , collections , folk and fai ry tales ,
poetical and trad itional literature have been placed
in their national order under French , Germ an , etc
m any im portant m inor works have been pub lished
in these form s , and m any im portant poem s have been
first translated in these anthologies , often long b e
fore they have appeared in the author’
s translated
works.
PREFACE
The m ost im portant'
of the Anglo-Saxon, etc
rom ances have been included in thi s B ibliography
and appear generally under their titles . These have
played a very im portant part in the deve lopm ent of
our literature , and m any m ay b e considered as
foreign ,having derived their origin from foreign
sources .
N0 one is m ore conscious than the com piler of the
d ifi culti es this l itt le work has entailed , and no one
is m ore conscious of i ts im perfecti ons . As far as
possible each entry has been verified at least three
tim es , and from d ifierent sources , yet inaccuracies
m ay have crept in , and any corrections, addi ti ons
or suggestions wi ll b e thankfully acknowledged .
This bib liography could have been m uch enl arged ,
b ut the endeavour has been to include only those
authors whose work has gone to th e m aking of E nglish
l i te rature, or who stand preaem inent as introd ucinga Special sc hool , class or form .
I desire to offer to Mr. Jam es D . B rown m y best
thanks for hi s suggestions in th e early stages of this
com p ilation , and to Dr. B aker for hi s ki ndly criticism ,
and al so for going through th e proofs.

Th e Historia i s looked upon as an epoch-m aking book, owing to theim pulse it gave to the literature of Rom an ce . Legends afloat am ong th enatives of Wal es and Bretagne were now given a h terary garb whi ch ren

The first novela picaresca,or rogue story Th e appearance of th is
work ( 1554) m arks the date at which such stories first took shape as a d i stinct branch of the novel, to b e known as the‘ picaroon ’

From that tim e, for nearly a cen tury, the ‘ Novelas de Picaros ’
are a ch ief

throngh the hands of Scarron and Le Sage , whose ‘ Diable Boiteau ’and
