This HTML edition was produced jointly with Colin Choat (colc.org.au)
| Note: | With the use of a text-to-speech player and the hard copies of the original editions themselves, this html edition has been specifically conformed as regards spelling, punctuation and content to the 1853, 1854 and 1857 first editions. Inconsistencies of italicisation, spelling, etc. which appear in the first editions (e.g. "shew"/"show"; "Gig-lamps" / "Giglamps") are reproduced here largely as they appear and without modification. Where the first editions contain manifest typographical errors which have been corrected in the later editions, these corrections (very few in number) are indicated in the narrative below by brackets. Greek letters in the original are rendered in Roman script and designated: "{*****}". In contrast to the method adopted in the originals, footnotes are serially numbered for ease of reference. The images included before the contents page at the start of this and of each of the two linked files are (close) approximations to the originals only, not being incorporated in the later consolidated editions. Likewise as with the later hard copy editions, the images do not appear interspersed with the text in the exact same positions as in the first editions. |
