Excerpt from A Bibliographical Essay On The Scriptores Rerum Germanicarum In order to maire this essay as useful as possible and at the same time, to give an idea of our notions of bibliography, we have divided it into three parts; the first contains a complete list of the volumes under notice, the titles of which are quoted at full length, the second or chronological part shows at one glance which authors must be consulted for every period of time, and the third, or Index, points out the different editions of each author or treatise.
