  Myers, Robin and Michael Harris (editors) ANTIQUARIES, BOOK COLLECTORS AND THE CIRCLES OF LEARNING
Winchester & New Castle, DE St Paul's Bibliographies & Oak Knoll Press 1996 5.75 x 8.25 inches printed paper over boards. 182 pages.
Part of the Publishing Pathways Series. The organization of learning in England has always depended on a web of connections between individuals within "the republic of letters." Beyond the closed confederacies of scholars and antiquaries in established centers of learning - Oxford, Cambridge and London - informal association created by shared interests in study and collecting created widening circles among like-minded people, especially from the 18th-century onwards.
Publication gave shape and meaning to the diffuse activities of individuals and societies, providing the basic mechanism for the sharing of ideas and information. Collectors, eagerly accumulating books and manuscripts as well as archaeological finds and "curiosities," had an important role in providing a scholarly resource. The contributors to this volume view the world of learning from different angles and provide original accounts of the way it worked in the fields of literature, archaeology, architecture and textual study.
This collection of essays for the Publishing Pathways Series include those by David Pearson on "Scholars and bibliophiles: book collectors in Oxford, 1550-1650," Mirjam M. Foot on "Scholar-collectors and their bindings," Robin Myers on "Dr. Andrew Coltee Ducarel (1713-1785): pioneer of Anglo-American studies," T.A. Birrell on "The circle of John Gage (1786-1842), Director of the Society of Antiquaries, and the bibliography of medievalism," Arnold Hunt on "Bibliotheca Heberiana," Janet Backhouse on "The sale of the Luttrell Psalter," Christopher de Hamel on "The illuminated manuscript collection of Edmond de Rothschild" and Bernard Nurse on "The library of the Society of Antiquaries of London: acquiring antiquaries' books over three centuries."

  Myers, Robin, Michael Harris and Giles Mandelbrote (editors) BOOKS ON THE MOVE: TRACKING COPIES THROUGH COLLECTIONS AND THE BOOK TRADE
New Castle, Delaware and London, UK Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2007 6 x 9 inches cloth, dust jacket 180 pages
First edition. Movements of books, both as individual volumes and as collections, have sometimes covered long distances across many centuries. Subject to the vagaries of war, shipwreck and personal ruin, as well as the intervention of the book trade and of collectors, the travels of books often have an intricately detailed and compelling story to tell. One of the most active areas of current research in book history is concerned with interpreting the clues from individual copies and piecing together the documentary evidence to provide this narrative. In this volume of the Publishing Pathways series, leading specialists in book history consider examples from the sixteenth to the twentieth century to chart some of the paths followed by books through the European network of print. This may focus on the large collections accumulated by Renaissance scholars, but may equally involve tracking multiple copies of the same work through the marks of ownership left by unknown readers. Books on the Move represents an important contribution to an understanding of the shifting interactions over time between libraries, collectors and the book trade.
Co-published with the British Library. Sales rights: Worldwide except in the UK; available in the UK from the British Library.
