Excerpt from Some Curios From a Word-Collector's Cabinet This may be regarded as a philological scrapbook. No one expects continuity of subject-matter in a scrap-book; he only looks for a number of successive points of interest. Each scrap ought at least to justify its admission by having some taking characteristic and individual merit of its own. Or - shifting the metaphor - I may say that the present collection of etymological odds-and-ends, stands in relation to the more formal and scientific works on philology pretty much as the museum of a county town does to the Ashmolean - or as Sir John Soane's miscellaneous omnium-gatherum in Lincoln's Inn Fields stands to the severely ordered galleries of the British Museum. The former pair in this comparison are pleasantly indifferent to precise arrangement and austere discrimination of dates and provenances. A thing is there simply because it is curious, uncommon and deserving of attention. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Curious Collectors, Collected Curiosities: An Interdisciplinary Study asks its readers to enter into an investigation of the nature of collecting as an aesthetic exercise. Spanning the sixteenth century through today, this book gathers together the work of current scholars to re-envision the task of collectors and their collections in broad strokes. Each chapter appropriates the idea of a cabinet of curiosity in order to expand its boundaries of meaning and to complicate our understanding of the acts of display and observation. These chapters also demonstrate that collecting is a universal trope which nevertheless depends on time and place for its particular expressions. Whether the collection is made up of literary texts and criticism, visual art, including mechanical reproductions, taxidermy and photography, historical travelogues, museum exhibitions, blockbuster films, or airline in-flight briefing cards, it conveys an urgent relevance to our consumer age, in which information is abundant and attention is a commodity.
