Extract

In our Catalogue of Catholic Books in English printed abroad or secretly in England, 1558-1640, we made many factual statements about the authorship, printing and dating of anonymous Recusant books, without giving the evidence. This was unavoidable if the catalogue was to be kept to a manageable size. The evidence for some of these statements has already appeared in miscellaneous articles and notes in Recusant History, and we propose to publish the rest gradually in two parallel series, Series A dealing with authors and translators, Series B with printers and presses, contributions to each series being numbered consecutively. Not all these contributions will necessarily be complete or exhaustive; in some instances we shall simply set out the evidence we have so far found. Occasionally we shall correct statements made in the catalogue in the light of more recent research. Our object is to make public the evidence on which the attributions were based, but not to imply that there is no further work to be done.

Notes

1. Included in his The Foot out of the Snare. References are to the fourth edition, 1624.

2. Daniel Sted[man?], Doughty's servant.

3. Permission to print it was given by the Bishop of London's chaplain, John Hansley, on 13 April 1641 (sig. B2r).

4. British Museum Additional MSS. 22465. Purchased by the British Museum at Puttick's sale (12 June 1858, lot 1593) of the library of Sir Roger Twysden Bart., which included books and manuscripts formerly belonging to the library of the Derings of Surrenden. I have not succeeded in finding a copy of the manuscript version of Dering's work to which this is a reply, but it is clear from Doughty's analysis of it that the text agreed substantially with the printed version of 1641 which was published under the title The Foure Cardinall-Vertues of a Carmelite-Fryar.
