  1. [111] Quoted by Fr. X. von Wegele, Geschichte der deutschen Historiographie (München, 1885, 8vo), p. 653.
  2. [112] Renan, ibid., p. 125.
  3. [113] B. Hauréau, Notices et extraits de quelques manuscrits latins de la Bibliothèque nationale, i. (Paris, 1890, 8vo). p. v.
  4. [114] Bibliothèque de l'École des chartes, 1896, p. 88. Compare analogous traits in the interesting intellectual biography of the Hellenist, palæographer, and bibliographer, Charles Graux, by E. Lavisse (Questions d'enseignement national, Paris, 1885, 18mo, pp. 265 sqq.).
  5. [115] See H. A. L. Fisher in the Fortnightly Review, Dec. 1894, p. 815.
  6. [116] Most of those who have a vocation for critical scholarship possess both the power of solving problems and the taste for collecting. It is, however, easy to divide them into two categories according as they show a marked preference for textual criticism and investigation of authorship on the one hand, or for the more absorbing and less intellectual labours of collection on the other. J. Havet, a past-master in the study of erudite problems, always declined to undertake a general collection of Merovingian royal charters, a work which his admirers expected from him. In this connection he readily admitted his "want of taste for feats of endurance" (Bibliothèque de l'École des chartes, 1896, p. 222).
