This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... 67. Calvin's Literary Labors. The best edition of Calvin's Opera by the Strassburg professors, Bacm, Coicitz, and Reuss (now all dead), embraces so far 48 quarto rols. (1863-1892); the remaining volumes were prepared for publication by Dr. Reuss before his death (1891). He wrote to me from Neuhof, near Strassburg, July 11, 1887: "Alles ist zum Druclc vorbereitet und ganz fertig mit Prolegomenis, etc. Es bleibt niclits mehr zu thun ubrig als die Correctur und die Fortsetzung des immer a jour gehaltenen Index rerum et nominum, et locorum S.
