Notes

 
[1]

The revised edition also published in 1881 contains an additional chapter entitled "Ana" that is anecdotal in nature.

[2]

The unsigned Memoir, together with a Preface by J. C. Hotten and Carlyle's Inaugural Address, appeared under the title On the Choice of Books (1866), which ironically under the circumstances is a pirated edition, the copyright belonging to Chapman and Hall. The text referred to by Shepherd is the second edition (1869).

[3]

Walter E. Wace, Alfred Tennyson: His Life and Works (1881). Edmund Curll, the notorious eighteenth-century publisher, satirized by Pope in The Dunciad.

[4]

Vertical lines mark the cancelled passage on pages 317-318, to which Shepherd has added in the margin, "This is the cancelled passage." It is difficult to ascertain how many uncancelled copies were issued; I have examined more than a dozen separate copies, all of which were cancelled.

[5]

See Richard H. Shepherd, A Bibliography of Carlyle (1881), item, 51, pp. 55-58, where Shepherd lists extensive errata to Nicoll.
