Book Description
The British Copyright Act of 1709 protected proprietors of books and music printed after 10 April 1710 who gave copies to the Company of Stationers in London. Upon receipt of a copy, usually within days of its first publication, the Stationers' Hall warehouse keeper entered details into a register. They included the date of registration, the name of the work's proprietor (its author or, if copyright had been transferred, its publisher), and the work's full title, which normally named the composer and the writer of any text and often named the work's performers and dedicatee. Although some publishers put the words 'Entered at Stationers' Hall' on title-pages without actually depositing copies, the information in the registers about the many works that were registered has significant bibliographic value. Because the music entries have not previously been printed and access to them has been difficult, they generally have been ignored by cataloguers and scholars, with the consequence that numerous musical works of this period have been misdated in libraries and reference books. This book makes available, for the first time, the full text of the music entries at Stationers' Hall from 1710 to 1810 and abbreviated details of works entered from 1811 to 1818. Its value is enhanced by the inclusion of locations of copies of most works, together with indexes of composers, authors, performers and dedicatees, and an explanatory introduction by the compiler.

The Bells of England

Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
J. J. Raven's learned and comprehensive work on the "Bells of England" arouses much interest, as it is the last work of a distinguished antiquary, who has accomplished much for the study of English archaeology. For a period of half a century J. J. Raven has been engaged on the fascinating study of campanology. He was one of the pioneers of the science, and therefore wrote this monograph with authority and accurate knowledge. We have many volumes on the bell-lore of different counties. The late H. T. Ellacombe recorded the bells of East Anglia. Thomas North those of five of the midland shires, Mr. Stahlschmidt did Kent and Surrey, Mr. Cox, Buckinghamshire, and the Rev. T. M. N. Owen, Huntingdonshire; other workers are engaged upon other counties; and J. J. Raven has now told the story of the bells of England as far as it was possible to do so with all available information, and a very graphic story it is. The remains of the British period, the notices of bells by Saxon chroniclers, lamentations over the destruction of Norman bells, owing to the falling of many central towers, the gradual development of shape, inscriptions, foundry marks, and Longobardic lettering, the story of early foundries, such as those of London, York, King's Lynn, Wokingham and Reading, the history of change-ringing; legends and bell law, are some of the subjects of this volume. Enthusiastic bell-lovers are rare: we doubt not that J. J. Raven's book will greatly increase their number, and lead others to complete these chronicles of the bells of England by climbing the belfries and reading the inscriptions on the bells of some counties which have not been thoroughly explored. -Magazine of Christian Art [1907]
