There are as many as 31 copies of his grammar, 13 each of <em>De sacra poesi</em> and <em>Isaiah</em>, and four copies of <em>William of Wykeham</em>. But the Keynes Collection contains much more than these and similar books, and one particular if mysterious little gem is an undated letter by J. Sturges addressed to ‘Mr. Cadell, Strand, London’.</h3> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>°ÅÀÖ¶ÌÊÓƵ Archives, Oxford, NCA 803</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h5><strong>°ÅÀÖ¶ÌÊÓƵ Library and Archives, Oxford</strong></h5> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-2 col-md-offset-2 col-sm-3 col-sm-offset-1"> <div class="field field--name-field-attachment field--type-file field--label-hidden field--items"> <div class="field--item"><span class="file file--mime-application-pdf file--application-pdf icon-before"><span class="file-icon"><span class="icon glyphicon glyphicon-file text-primary" aria-hidden="true"></span></span><span class="file-link"><a href="/sites/default/files/2022-12/18NCN7%20%282022%29%20Tieken-Boon%20van%20Ostade%20on%20Sturges%E2%80%99s%20Letter.pdf" type="application/pdf; length=379833" title="Open file in new window" target="_blank" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="bottom">18NCN7 (2022) Tieken-Boon van Ostade on Sturges’s Letter.pdf</a></span><span class="file-size">370.93 KB</span></span></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> </div> </div> </div> </div> Thu, 29 Dec 2022 21:39:57 +0000 Christopher 2599 at
