[274] Some of the other contributions of this movement are these: Roselly de Lorgues, Satan contre Christophe Colomb, ou la prétendue chute du serviteur de Dieu, Paris, 1876; Tullio Dandolo’s I secoli di Dante e Colombo, Milan, 1852, and his Cristoforo Colombo, Genovese, 1855; P. Ventura de Raulica’s Cristoforo Colombo rivendicato alla chiesa; Eugène Cadoret, La vie de Christophe Colomb, Paris, 1869,—in advocacy of canonization; Le Baron van Brocken, Des vicissitudes posthumes de Christophe Colomb, et de sa béatification possible, Paris, 1865,—which enumerates most of the publications bearing on the grounds for canonization; Angelo Sanguineti, La Canonizzazione di Cristoforo Colombo, Genoa, 1875,—the same author had published a Vita di Colombo in 1846; Sainteté de Christophe Colomb, résumé des mérites de ce serviteur de Dieu, traduit de l’Italien, twenty-four pages; Civiltà cattolica, vol. vii.; a paper, “De l’influence de la religion dans les découvertes du XVe siècle et dans la découverte de l’Amérique,” in Etudes par des Pères de la Compagnie de Jésus, October, 1876; Baldi, Cristoforo Colombo glorificato dal voto dell’Episcopato Cattolico, Genoa, 1881. A popular Catholic Life is Arthur George Knight’s Christopher Columbus, London, 1877.
[275] There are various reviews of it indicated in Poole’s Index, p. 29; cf. H. H. Bancroft’s Mexico, ii. 488.
[276] A somewhat similar view is taken by Maury, in Harpers’ Monthly, xlii. 425, 527, in “An Examination of the Claims of Columbus.”
[277] From which the account of Columbus’ early life is translated in Becher’s Landfall of Columbus, pp. 1-58.
[278] An English translation, by R. S. H., appeared in Philadelphia in 1878. We regret not being able to have seen a new work by Henry Harrisse now in press: Christophe Colomb, son origine, sa vie, ses voyages, sa famille, et ses descendants, d’après documents inédits, avec cinq tableaux généalogiques et un appendice documentaire.

[283] It appeared in the Revue contemporaine, xxiv. 484, and was drawn out by a paper on a newly discovered portrait of Columbus, which had been printed by Jomard in the Bulletin de la Société de Géographie; by Valentin Carderera’s Informe sobre los retratos de Cristóbal Colon, printed by the Royal Academy of History at Madrid, in 1851, in their Memorias, vol. viii.; and by an article, by Isidore Löwenstern, of the Academy of Sciences at Turin, in the Revue Archéologique, x. 181. The paper by Jomard was the incentive of Carderera. both treatises induced the review of Löwenstern; while Feuillet de Conches fairly summed up the results. There has been no thorough account in English. A brief letter on the subject by Irving (printed in the Life of Irving, vol. iv.) was all there was till Professor J. D. Butler recently traced the pedigree of the Yanez picture, a copy of which was lately given by Governor Fairchild to the Historical Society of Wisconsin. Cf. Butler’s paper in the Collections of that Society, vol. ix. p. 76 (also printed separately); and articles in Lippincott’s Magazine, March, 1883, and The Nation, Nov. 16, 1882.
