C.S.B. Buckland, 1920
Scope and Contents
A soft-cover lined notebook, bound in blue cloth, belonging to C.S.B. Buckland of Merton College, Oxford, and containing what appears to be a translation of Erasmus’ Epistles. The book is inscribed with the dates December 1919 and January 2020 and is titled “Erasmus I”; there does appear to have once been a second volume, as the translation simply cuts off, but it has apparently been lost or otherwise separated from the first.
