[113] For a description of this book see Jakob Burckhard, _Historia Bibliothecae Augustae_ (Leipzig, [1744]), I, 148-150. For an ascription to Samuel Clodius see Otto von Heinemann, _Die herzogliche Bibliothek zu Wolfenbüttel_ (2d ed.; Wolfenbüttel, 1894), p. 72, n. 2 and Adelung's supplement to C. G. Jöcher, _Gelehrtenlexikon_, II (Leipzig, 1787), 376-377. I am indebted to Dr. Arnold Weinberger and Professor Heinrich Schneider for these references. The date 1650 is probably wrong. The foregoing authorities give the date 1660. The _Catalogi Bibliothecae Thottianae_, VI (Copenhagen, 1798), 386, No. 972, cites a copy with the date 1659. The _Sciagraphia_ is strangely lacking in the first book to which one turns: Hermann Conring, _De Bibliotheca Augusta_ (Helmstadt, 1661; "editio nova," 1684), which is reprinted in J. A. Schmid and J. J. Mader, _De bibliothecis atque archivis_ (Helmstadt, 1702-1705). In this famous letter Conring discusses a proposal to make a catalogue of the books at Wolfenbüttel and reaches the conclusion that it cannot be executed. His neglect of his predecessor is curious. [114] For a reference to this book see Petzholdt, p. 584 (he did not see the book). The author's name is Fuiren. There is a copy in the Royal Library at Copenhagen. [115] This is Michael Kirsteinius (Michael Kirsten), _Memoria bibliothecae Hamburgensis_ (Hamburg, [1651]). There are folio and quarto editions. For references to it see J. F. Jugler (ed.), B. G. Struve, _Bibliotheca historiae litterariae selecta_ (Jena, 1754-1763), pp. 483-484 and the British Museum catalogue. [116] This book, if it was ever printed, has probably disappeared. I can find no reference to a copy of it. In his _Bibliotheca bibliothecarum_, Philip Labbé continues the title as follows: "quarum prima omnium Scriptorum qui artem Medicam excoluerunt nomina, aetatem, libros, &c. continet; secunda per classes rerum praecipuas ac titulos artium digesta cujuvis materiae Medicae, &c. Dilingiae apud Gaspardum Sutorem in folio." I do not know where he found this information. Dr. Arnold Weinberger tells me that Bartholomäus Moser (d. 1678), "fürstlich augsburgischer Rat und Leibmedikus," wrote a biography of Francis Bacon (1645) and made a gift to the University of Dillingen in 1676. See Thomas Specht, _Geschichte der ehemaligen Universität Dillingen_ (Freiburg i.B., 1902), I, 405. [117] Cunibert Mohlberg collects information about this catalogue; see "Nachrichten von belgischen Sammelkatalogen des 15./16. Jahrhunderts," _Historisches Jahrbuch_, XXXIII (1912), 365-375. In "Quellen zur Feststellung und Geschichte mittelalterlicher Bibliotheken, Handschriften und Schriftsteller," _Historisches Jahrbuch_, XL (1920), 44-106, Paul Lehmann adds more information and corrects Mohlberg in some details. Lehmann makes a very interesting attempt to reconstruct the catalogue from quotations.
