FOOTNOTES:
[1] It would be a great mistake to think that because SPRENGEL wrote
his History here, the opposite must be true. The greater part of the
Works collected by him are no longer to be found. It is only too
evident that the earlier administrators of the library, especially
ERSCH, so famous as a Historian of Literature, left the medical side
almost totally unconsidered; and what gaps the Administration of
to-day has to fill up is sufficiently evidenced by the yearly Lists of
Additions.
[2] The Bibliography of Authorities and Historians has been placed at
the end of the present volume.
[3] “On the Venereal Disease in the Northern Provinces of European
Turkey” in: Russian Compendium for Natural and Medical Science, edited
by _Alex. Crichton_, _Jos. Rehmann_, _C. Fr. Burdach_, vol. I. Riga and
Leipzig 1815. large 8vo. pp. 230.
