A GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN GRECIAN, ROMAN, ITALIAN, AND GOTHIC
ARCHITECTURE. The Fifth Edition enlarged, exemplified by 1700 Woodcuts.
"In the Preparation of this the Fifth Edition of the Glossary of
Architecture, no pains have been spared to render it worthy of the
continued patronage which the work has received from its first
publication.
"The Text has been considerably augmented, as well by the additions of
many new Articles, as by the enlargement of the old ones, and the
number of Illustrations has been increased from eleven hundred to
seventeen hundred.
"Several additional Foreign examples are given, for the purpose of
comparison with English work, of the same periods.
"In the present Edition, considerably more attention has been given to
the subject of Mediæval Carpentry, the number of Illustrations of 'Open
Timber Roofs' has been much increased, and most of the Carpenter's
terms in use at the period have been introduced with
authorities."--_Preface to the Fifth Edition._
JOHN HENRY PARKER, Oxford; and 377. Strand, London.

Foolscap 8vo., 10s. 6d.
THE CALENDAR OF THE ANGLICAN CHURCH; illustrated with Brief Accounts of the
Saints who have Churches dedicated in their Names, or whose Images are most
frequently met with in England; also the Early Christian and Mediæval
Symbols, and an Index of Emblems.
"It is perhaps hardly necessary to observe, that this work is of an
Archæological, and not a Theological character. The Editor has not
considered it his business to examine into the truth or falsehood of
the legends of which he narrates the substance; he gives them merely as
legends, and, in general, so much of them only as is necessary to
explain why particular emblems were used with a particular Saint, or
why Churches in a given locality are named after this or that
Saint."--_Preface._
"The latter part of the book, on the early Christian and mediæval
symbols, and on ecclesiastical emblems, is of great historical and
architectural value. A copious Index of emblems is added, as well as a
general Index to the volume with its numerous illustrations. The work
is an important contribution to English Archæology, especially in the
department of ecclesiastical iconography."--_Literary Gazette._
JOHN HENRY PARKER, Oxford; and 377. Strand, London.
