Excerpt from The Ancient Editions of Martial: With Collations of the Berlin and Edinburgh Mss OF the ancient editions from which our existing mss. Of Latin authors are ultimately derived we generally know little or nothing. Neither the date Of the edition nor the name of the editor has been transmitted to modern times; But there was one period of the later Empire when so pro nounced self-advertisement on the part of editors was the fashion that some record of them has persisted to our own age. It was the period when Paganism was making its last stand against Christianity, when the Old nobility, partly from religious, but not less from social and political con siderations, upheld the faith of their forefathers. One form that their struggle took was the assertion of the claims Of the Old authors, Martial, Juvenal, and the rest, who were placed on the 'index expurgatorius' of the Church. The younger scions of aristocratic houses, as soon as they had completed their studies at the University, tried their 'prentice hands' on new editions of these dethroned kings of literature, and with the self-assertiveness of amateur scholars gave great prominence to the record Of their edi torial labours.
