Title: Creativity and duplicity in western scholarship.
Description: Collins & Brown, London, 1990. X,157p. Bound wrps. 'Grafton makes clear that the master forger must also be (...) a scholar (...) as knowledgeable as those whom he is trying to fool. (...) This elegant monograph ranges from Porphyry through Isaac Casaubon (...) on to Scaliger, Chatterton and others, though its focus remains the transmission of classical texts. Or, rather, pseudo-classical texts.' (Washington Post). From the library of the late Prof. W. Geoffrey Arnott.
