Book Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The eighteenth-century fascination with Greek and Roman antiquity followed the systematic excavation of the ruins at Pompeii and Herculaneum in southern Italy; and after 1750 a neoclassical style dominated all artistic fields. The titles here trace developments in mostly English-language works on painting, sculpture, architecture, music, theater, and other disciplines. Instructional works on musical instruments, catalogs of art objects, comic operas, and more are also included. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title. This data is provided as an additional tool in helping to insure edition identification: ++++ British Library T218189 Engraved titlepages. Vol. 1 dated 1777 in error for 1787, has no volume numbering, and its 'To the public' is dated: 13th Sept. 1787; while vol. 2 bears vol. numbering and is dated 1787. Intended to accompany various editions of 'The antiquities of England and Wales'; vol. 2 contains a general index "to the six volumes." Later reissued with renumbered engraved titlepages. London: printed for S. Hooper, 1777-87 [1787]. 2v., plates: ill., maps; 2°
