ENGLISH AUTHORS, PLACED ON 'THE ROMAN 'INDEX' (1600 TO 1750).

IN looking through the 'Index Librorum Prohibitorum,' printed at Rome in 1758 by the order of Benedict XIV., I have made the following notes :

Addison, Joseph. His Notes on Italy are con- demned, 1729. Le Spectateur, ou le Socrate moderne, 1745. (This I presume to be a trans- lation.)

Andrewes, Lancelot. Tortura Torti, 1609 and 1610.

Bacon, De Augmentis. 1669, Donee corrigatur.

Barclay, John. Euphormion, 1609.

Barclay, Robert. Apologie .... [pour] le peuple appele par mepris les Trembleurs, 1712.

Bingham, Joseph. Origines, sive Antiquitates,

Boyle, Robert. Three essays. 1700. Broughton, Hugh. Opera, 1609. Browne, Sir Tho. Religio Medici, 1646, shortly .after its appearance.

Bull, George. Opera omnia, 1739 and 1757. Donee corrigantur.

Burnet, Gilbert. Histoire de la Reformation 1690 and 1693. Histoire des Revolutions d'An- gleterre, 1732.

Burnet, Thomas. Telluris theoria sacra, 1739 ; and three other works.

Cosin, John. Historia Transubstantiationis, 1687.

Cudworth, Ralph. Systema intellectuale, 1739.

Defoe, Daniel. Histoire du Diable, 1744.

Fell, John. Cypriani opera, 1686.

Hakewill, George. Scutum Regium, 1622.

Herbert of Cherbury. De Veritate, 1634.

Heylin, Peter. Cosmographia, 1727.

Hobbes of Malmesbury. Leviathan, 1703. Life of Hobbes, 1703.

James I. Apologia pro juramento, 1609. Ba Aupov, 1609.

Lightfoot, John. Opera omnia, 1690.

Locke, John. L'entendement humain, 1734.

Mandeville, Bernard. La Fable des Abeilles, 1745.

Milton, John. II Paradiso Perduto, 1732 Literae Cromwellii, 1700.

Osborn, Francis. Misc. Works, 1737. (See Nineteenth Century, 1896, p. 944, &c.)

Owen, John. Epigrammata, 1654.

Pearson, John. Expositio Symboli Apostolici, 1709.

Poole, Matthew. Synopsis, 1693.

Prideaux, Humphrey. Histoire des Juifs, 1732. Donee corrigatur.

Richardson, Samuel. Pamela, ou la vertu recompensed, 1745.

Ross, Alexander. Les Religions du Monde, 1676.

Sanderson, Robert. De Conscientia, 1677. Pra-lectiones, 1700.

Selden, John. Five works, 1714 and 1718.

Sherlock, William. Sermons, 1737.

Steele, Richard. Etat de 1' Eglise Romaine, 1721. ' Swift, Jonathan. Le Conte du Tonneau, 1734.

Thorndike, Herbert. Origines Ecclesiasticae, 1709.

Tillotson, John. Sermons, 1727 and 1739.

Toland, John. Adeisidsemon, 1725.

One would have expected inter alia to find Dr. William Nicholls's ' Defensio Ecclesiae Anglicanae ' in the list. It was published in Latin in 1708, and dedicated to Queen Anne ; and published in English 1715, 1730, 1740.

Perhaps the oddest thing is the insertion of poor old Richardson's * Pamela.' The examiners probably never heard of ' Tom Jones ' and Joseph Andrews,' though they appeared in 1749 and 1742 respectively. ' Tristram Shandy ' had not seen the light when this edition of the Index was issued.

The dates in my list are those of con- demnation. RlCHABD H. THORNTON.
