XII.—On the unpublished work entitled “Antiquarius” by Hieronymus Bononius, of Treviso, and his Poetical Remains; including a Poem on the Revivors of Literature in the Fifteenth Century who were personally known to that Author

Abstract

Although literary history is less prominently an object of this learned Society, and has less claim for discussion at its meetings than other branches of antiquarian knowledge, yet I may expect to be indulged with your special attention this evening, while I lay before you a long-lost work of one of the Revivors of Literature in the fifteenth century, and that the autograph and unique copy of a production, entitled Antiquarius, or “Two books of The Antiquary.”
