Excerpt from Catalogue of the Dante Collection Presented by Willard Fiske, Vol. 1: Preface, Introduction, EtcTo the officers of the Dante Society of Cambridge, Mass., particularly Prof. C. E. Norton, Mr. William C. Lane, Prof. A. R. Marsh, of Harvard, and Prof. G. R. Carpenter, of Columbia University, I am indebted for encouragement and advice in the early stages of my work. In the revision of the proof of the list of editions of the Italian text of the Divina Commedia, I received most valuable help from Dr. Edward Moore, Principal of St. Edmund's Hall, Oxford, Mr. Paget Toynbee, Mr. A. J. Butler, and Mr. George L. Hamilton. Dr. Moore and Mr. Toynbee have been especially considerate of my needs in other ways, and I desire to express here my appreciation of their kindness. To Mr. Alexis V. Babine, formerly on the staff of this library, now Librarian of the University of Indiana, I am indebted for the accurate transcription of all the Russian titles in this catalogue. To the many other scholars Who have helped me in various ways, I beg leave to present my thanks.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
