Lectures
upon the Fourth of John.
Cambridge History of English Literature - 1908 - v07
Reformed School.
1650.
Estienne, Henri. The Art of Making Devises. Treating of Hieroglyphicks,
Symboles, Emblemes, Aenigmas, Sentences, Parables, Reverses of Medalls,
Arms, Blazons, Cimiers, Cyphres and Rebus. Translated into English by
Thomas Blount. 1650. [The making of devices' involved some pictorial
representation together with a symbolic meaning. When this is expressed
in words it becomes an emblem. In the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries, emblem-books were a recognised recreation to the scholar.
We learn from Farnaby and Hoole that they were used in schools as
helps in phrase-making in both Latin and Greek prose and verse com-
position. Amongst the English emblem-writers were Geoffrey Whitney,
Choice of Emblems, 1586; Andrew Willet, 1598; Peacham's Minerva
Britannia, 1612; Francis Quarles, 1635; George Wither, 1635. The
foreign emblem-writers, Alciat, Bocchius, Jovius, Maccius, quickened
language study, especially Latin (by presenting the foreign languages
along with pictures of what was described in words) as well as serving for
scholarly recreation. On emblem literature see Green, H. , Shakespere and
the Emblem-writers, 1870. ]
Habington, Thomas. The Epistle of Gildas, a Britain entitled De Excidio et
Conquestu Britanniae, translated into English. 1638.
