PEEFACE ix in all cases been given under any name which is contained in it. It must be understood that Foster's Alumni Ox- onienses should always be consulted in regard to any person about whom further information is desired. This applies especially to the period 1509-1800, up to which latter date a man's subsequent career is indicated only when it possesses any special interest, or when it has been possible to supple- ment the information given in ordinary books of reference. For fuller details as to Benefactions, as well as many other matters contained in the Register, reference should be made to the two volumes of Quatercentenary Monographs. The list of works has been drawn up from the cata- logue of the books by Brasenose authors contained in the College Library (works which are in the Library being marked by a f), but it has been added to from other sources, especially from the British Museum Catalogue which has been used for all known Brasenose authors.^ This laborious task has been executed by Mr. W. T. Coxhill. It is not supposed that the list of works is exhaustive, and in this connexion, as in the Register generally, there may be many errors in identification ; but it is hoped that the work which has been done may at least prove to be a serviceable foundation for a more complete bibliography, which may be undertaken by some successor who can devote more time to its production. It should be added that in the case of most men who have had only a slight connexion with the College, as for instance Professor Sayce and the late Provost of Oriel, a list of their works has not been given. It appeared sufficient to state generally that they were authors. The Editor regrets that there were in the first volume of the Register so many omissions and mistakes — quas aut incuria fudit Aut humana parum cavit natura. ^ Many additions to the list of authors or works given in the present volume are derived from a manuscript list compiled by the Rev. W. E. Buckley, which was unfortunately overlooked when the first volume of the Register was being prepared.
