“Roberti Whitintoni Lichfeldiensis Protovatis Angliæ in Florentissimâ Oxoniensi Academiâ Laureati, Opusculum de Concinnitate Grammatices & Constructione recognitum Anno Domini xix supra Sesquimillesimum, in 4to.” So Bagford (Brit. Mus. MS. Harl. 5901, fol. 23v, cf. Bodl. MS. Rawl. D. 375, p. 103). Probably not printed at Oxford.
Before 1520.
John Dorne, bookseller in Oxford, sold in 1520 several copies of a small book described in his day-book as “Bene fundatum,” “Bene fundatum Oxonie” or “Bene fundatum uosgraf.” This seems to be a trace of a real Oxford book now lost, but no such printer as Vosgraf or Foxgrave (Dorne was from the Low Countries) is known. It would probably belong to the 1517–19 press. See Dorne’s book edited in the Collectanea vol. i of the Oxford Historical Society, 1885. Cotton erroneously reads the title as “Bene sum datum.”
1542.
Shepery’s Hippolytus: see under 1586. S.
1549.
“P. Martyr de Sacramento Eucharistiæ, disputatio hab. in acad., 1549,” 4o. So in the Catalogus librorum R. Davisii, pt. 4 (1692), p. 7, cf. p. 10. Some error.
1564.
“Analysis libri Aristotelis de Sophisticis Elenchis, opera et studio Griff. Poweli.” So in the Catalogus librorum R. Davisii, pt. 2 (1686), p. 72. Error for 1594, which see.
