The See also:work was undertaken by A. J. See also:Valpy, and, although not expressly stated, it was understood that Barker was the responsible editor. When a few parts had appeared, it was severely criticized in the Quarterly See also:Review (xxii., 182o) by See also:Blomfield; the result was the curtailment of the See also:original See also:plan of the work and the omission of Barker's name in connexion with it.
