 Title:  Studies in Bibliography, Volume 48 (1995)  
 Published:  1997 
 Subjects:   | Studies in Bibliography 
 Description: Most of this volume consists of essays designed to honor J. D. Fleeman on the completion of his life's principal endeavour, a comprehensive bibliography of Samuel Johnson. Galvanized by two of David's ardent admirers, Professor Daisuke Nagashima and Professor Howard D. Weinbrot, we as co-editors found ourselves casting a net from—if not China to Peru—then Oxford to Otago. That the field of potential contributors proved so diverse and so distinguished is one measure of David's achievement. Throughout his career, he devoted himself selflessly to the work of others; indeed, several of the articles included in this volume bear his direct imprint. All exemplify one of his most cherished ideals—that of scholarly community. For David, no pains were excessive when it came to teaching, learning, and collaborating. As a consequence, the epigraph to this collection might well be taken (with the change of a single pronoun) from King Alfred's preface to his version of Gregory's Cura Pastoralis: "Her mon maeg giet gesion hiora swaeth."
