Excerpt from Leechdoms, Wortcunning, and Starcraft of Early England It will be difficult for the kindliest temper to give a friendly welcome to the medical philosophy of Saxon days. As man has an ever recurring proneness to make himself the standard of truth, to condemn, sneer at, and despise all that he does not choose or is unable to comprehend, so in a greater degree every generation of men admires its own wisdom, skill, science, art, and progress; it calls its own, whatever it has learnt from men of former days, and counts the few improvements which have had their birth in its own time, as triumphs and distinctions which elevate it above all the past. If we consider the history of the ages gone by, these high pretensions will soon abate somewhat of their confidence. The progress of those contrivances towards our comfort, which we sum up in the term civilization, has been very creeping and laborious. Our great capitals are smaller than Rome, the fortunes of our men of millions are trifles to the wealth of a Crassus or a Lucullus, our houses are less carefully warmed in winter than the Roman villas, our poetry has no Homeros, our sculpture no Praxiteles, our architecture no Parthenon, our philosophy has never seen a century such as that between Perikles and Alexandres, those hundred years of Attic wit and wisdom have given us an education in dead languages, and in the lore and manners of two thousand years since, and are driving our native words from off our tongues and making them strange to our ears.

Excerpt from Leechdoms, Wortcunning, and Starcraft of Early England, Vol. 2: Being a Collection of Documents, for the Most Part Never Before Printed, Illustrating the History of Science in This Country Before the Norman Conquest NO historical records are complete without the usual chapter on Manners and Customs; and the true scholar never feels himself well in possession of the requisite knowledge of the past age, till he has so learnt its time honoured tale, as to apprehend in a human and practical sense those feelings which made its super stitions plausible, its heathenism social, its public institutions tend, in the end, to the general welfare. The Saxons have not been more fortunate than others in their appreciation by us, self satisfied moderns. They have been, and still are, I believe, commonly regarded as mangy dogs, whose success against the Keltic race in this country was owing chiefly to their starved condition and ravening hunger. The children protest that, positively, as they know from their most reliable handbooks, these roving savages stuffed their bellies with acorns, and the enlightened literati and dfilettcmt'i begrudge them any feeling of respect for their queens and ladies, or any arts such as befit our Albion's glorious isle under an English king.

Excerpt from Leechdoms, Wortcunning, and Starcraft of Early England, Vol. 3: Being a Collection of Documents, for the Most Part Never Before Printed, Illustrating the History of Science in This Country Before the Norman Conquest There was, alongside of the sceptic and materialist philosopher, an early doctrine about dreams, and a copious literature. Artemon, Antiphon, Straton, Philo choros, Epicharmus, Serapion, Kratippos, Dionysios Rhodios, Hermippos, are named as authors on this sub ject, and patrons of the common superstition. There were established and frequented dreaming places, as the fanes of Asklepios at Epidauros, of Amphiaraos at Oropos, Of Amphilochos at Mallos, of Sarpedon in the Tread, of Trophonios at Lebadea, of Mopses in Kilikia, of Hermonia in Makedonia, of Pasiphae in Lakonia.1 The writings of Hermippos of Berytos filled five volumes. Nowhere was dreaming more rife, nowhere more greedily listened to, than in Iudaea, about the Christian era, yet there many of the provocatives to folly had been banished by a pure worship of God. We may still look through a professed systematic treatise of Judging Dreams in the Oneirokritica of Artemidoros the Ephesian, whose work has been four times printed in the original, and translated into Latin, French, and Italian. The method of composition followed in these Saxon p1eces is more like that of Achmet or Apomasar, who pretends to embody the experience of India, Persia, and Arabia. Thus, spite of freethinkers, spite of Moses and the prophets, spite of Gospel and Epistle, couched in the breasts of the people there still lies a strong awe and hope from the fantasms Of sleep. Here too the Saxon is a fair parallel to the living Englishman. While his bookish men study their Greek and their Latin, their astronomy, cosmogony, and computus, he contents himself with an enclpzedic dream literature, and feeds his fancy instead Of leading his head. It is the way Of the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
