  OF SCHEMES AND TROPES -1550 BY RICHARD SHERRY AND HIS TRANSLATION OF THE EDUCATION OF CHILDREN BY DESIDERIUS ERASMUS This text includes characters that require UTF-8 (Unicode) file encoding: ẽ ũ e, u with overline = following n or m If these characters do not display properly—in particular, if the diacritic does not appear directly above the letter—or if the apostrophes and quotation marks in this paragraph appear as garbage, you may have an incompatible browser or unavailable fonts. First, make sure that the browser’s “character set” or “file encoding” is set to Unicode (UTF-8). You may also need to change your browser’s default font. The text is based on scans of two different physical copies of the same edition; see endnotes for one variant reading. Typographical errors are marked with mouse-hover popups. All pilcrows in the body text were added by the transcriber (see endnotes). The book was originally (1550) printed together with Erasmus’s The Education of Children. The introduction (1961) mentions Erasmus briefly; the Index refers only to Sherry’s Treatise. Since the two texts have no connection except that Sherry is assumed to be the translator of the Erasmus essay, they have been made into separate e-texts. Introduction (1961) A TREATISE |
