_Grosses vollständiges Universal Lexikon aller Wissenschaften und Künste_ (68 v.; Halle, 1732-1754) was sufficient for most scholarly needs. [128] See _Bibliotheca selectissima_ (Amsterdam, 1743), I, 340, No. 2985. There is a copy of this catalogue in the Newberry Library. [129] For a discussion of these difficulties see H. B. Van Hoesen's review of the _Bibliographic Index_ in the _Library Quarterly_, X (1940), 272-274. [130] See a review by A. S., _Heidelbergische Jahrbücher der Literatur_, 1812, pp. 644-656. The reviewer points out inaccuracies of various kinds, complains bitterly about the inconveniences of the alphabetical arrangement, and cites many lacking titles. [131] Pp. 232-236. [132] Pp. 249-252. [133] Pp. 275-286. [134] Pp. 470-472. [135] Pp. 450-452. [136] Pp. 263-274. [137] Pp. 409-419. [138] P. 427. [139] He would have removed publishers' catalogues (p. 97 [Estienne] and p. 118 [Plantin]), a weekly catalogue of the booktrade (p. 103), various catalogues of libraries owned by institutions (pp. 101, 105). The last of these should have been put in the list on pp. 40-75. [140] This section, which does not include biobibliographies, contains 1861 titles. There are 586 biobibliographies in the following, fifth section. [141] For a description of this book, which was published in only twelve copies, see Petzholdt, p. 113. See an enlargement of a microfilm in the Newberry Library. [142] See II, 26, No. 483; II, 131, No. 390; II, 121, No. 378. [143] See II, 119, No. 7, where he cites "Sanderus, A. de scriptoribus Flandriae lib. III. Antv. 1624, in.-4.," but omits _De Brugensibus eruditionis fama claris libri duo_ (Antwerp, 1624) and _De Gandavensibus eruditionis fama claris libri tres_ (Antwerp, 1624). [144] See II, 14-17, & 4, Nos. 268-312. [145] See II, 140-167, Nos. 131-720. [146] See "Bibliographies of Bibliographies," _The Bulletin of the Bibliographical Society of America_, III (1911), 50-53. [147] For brief comment on these bibliographies see below. [148] In the eighteenth century J. M. Francke, who compiled the great _Catalogus Bibliothecae Bunavianae_ (3 v.; Leipzig, 1750-1756), came, with the Bünau library, to the Dresden library. In the first quarter of the nineteenth century F. A. Ebert completed the _Allgemeines bibliographisches Lexikon_ in the same library. [149] Pp. 20-65. [150] Leipzig, 1850; 2d ed., Brussels, 1854. These are many later indexes to biographies. See, as examples, Max Arnim, _Internationale Personalbiographie_, 1850-1935 (Leipzig, 1936) and a second edition (Leipzig, 1944-1952) that has been expanded backwards and forwards to cover the years between 1800 and 1943 and Luigi Ferrari, _Onomasticon. Repertorio biobibliografico degli scrittori italiani dal 1500 al 1850_ (Milan, 1947).
