We have no space to enumerate the extreme value of each Work separately, or even to notice those that are now for the first time printed; but it may be sufficient to adopt, as a general view of the several Works, the following from the Preface to the Codex Diplomaticus Ævi Saxonici : "The extraordinary amount of information to be derived from these documents renders their publication an era in the studies of Teutonic scholars; for law, language, and history, they are full of data, without which no enquiry in this field, however industrious and conscientious, could possibly be successful. Germany and Scandinavia have their part too in the collection; it is in the running comment upon a dark portion of history, in which the greatest nations of the world dimly and indistinctly figure; and though it belongs to England, it contains many notices which will be valued both north and south of the Elbe. Most valuable is it at a moment like this, when the ngular and exceptional position of our country challenges investigation at the hand of the philo- [ phical historian. "More than fifteen hundred documents have survived the conquests and tramplingsof armies, he storm of revolutions, the yet more efficient and gradual changes of fashion, and the altered |
