"Notes and Queries, Vol. V, Number 130, April 24, 1852" by Various is a scholarly collection of essays and contributions that serves as a medium of intercommunication for literary men, artists, antiquaries, and genealogists, written in the mid-19th century. This periodical features a range of topics including historical notes, literary critiques, genealogical inquiries, and cultural observations, reflecting the intellectual pursuits of its contributors. The opening of this volume provides a variety of
notes and queries, with a particular focus on the Tredescants and Elias Ashmole, discussing their contributions to the early collection of curiosities and the subsequent legal disputes related to a museum of rarities. It also includes inedited poetry by Anne Ellys, a note on Virgil, and brief references to miscellaneous topics such as longevity, traditional sayings, and ancestral inquiries. This blend of literary exploration and historical inquiry sets the tone for a work that caters to an audience interested in the intersections of literature, history, and scholarship in the 19th century.
