Poetae Scenici Graeci accedunt perditarum fabularum fragmenta.

Hf. lea., ]xxxii].766.162. Formerly a poor copy rescued by sympathetic rebacking, wear and tear and some internal damage (staining, one blank endpaper torn with some loss of page), text complete and clear. Heavily annotated throughout in English and occasional Greek by Frederick W. Farrar whose bookplate when he was at Trinity College, Cambridge, is loosely inserted and whose signature appears on the recto of the front free endpaper ("Frederic W. Farra/ Trin. Coll. Cam.") Farrar was a divine, Dean of Canterbury, and author of the quintessentail Victorian (School) Novel (especially the deathbed scene) "Eric; or, Little by Little" (see DNB). The annotations reveal Farrar's interests and intellectual temperature, but also the nature of the Cambridge classical education of the period.
