[1] A list of keywords in a box follows but does not ostensibly form an integral part of the title: ‘La Musique – Les Médiétés [-] Les Roues Magiques [-] Le Nombre d’Or et sa Spirale [-] Le Nombre de la Bête [-] Le Diagramme Musical de Platon [-] L’Harmonie Géométrique [-] L’Astrologie Platonicienne’

[2] Over the original printed author name to the front cover has been pasted a strip revising it to ‘D. Néroman’; but the original name is retained on the title page within

[3] To the main title is added on the front cover, but not the inner title page, the following subtitle: ‘Clé Scientifique de la Mythologie Grecque [-] La Kabbale justifiée par la Science’

[4] To the lower margin of the front cover of this copy has been added a later stamp of the author’s own publishing house: ‘Éditions “Sous-Le-Ciel”, 11, Rue Bois Le Vent (16^e)’

[5] Library records give 1933

[6] This copy is missing the ‘list of documents’ that should run from pp. 323-333. It is clear from the lack of any gap in the binding that it was not present in the first place in this copy. I have since replaced it with Copy A, but retained it for the value of the author’s inscription

[7] To this title is added on the front cover only the following protracted subtitle: ‘Méthode Rationnelle pour déterminer les dates des évènements prévus par l’étude astrologique. Avec Tables Numériques évitant tous calculs. – Et Tableau Évolutif donnant l’âge des espèces depuis les temps primaires jusqu’à nos jours. Exemple d’application de la méthode sur le Thème du Roi Édouard VIII’.

[8] Pages 27-8 (tables) appear missing from this copy; there is no evidence of their ever having been bound in

[9] Full address not stated on title page but apparent from advertising to rear cover

[10] This seems a generous size of edition for one specified numerically thus; many smaller editions have undoubetedly been produced without such a limitation notice

[11] BN records give 1936

[12] A collection of transcripts of papers presented at a congress organised by Néroman. The featured authors are Dr. René Allendy, Paul Carot, Georges Bournier, René Lemaire, Jean Niclot, Mme. Lechaut; Mme Marg. Rey, and Néroman. An introductory address by Ann C. Beybrook (then editor of World Astrology Magazine) has been translated by Mme. Lechaut; and a few other communications presented at the congress are briefly summarised

[13] There is no evidence of it ever having been bound in to this copy, but it is presumed to have been issued with the book and might have been intended to be bound in

[14] The signature might be that of the author, but is so incomplete as to make it difficult to tell for sure

[15] It is impossible to tell which in this case because the covers have been carefully wrapped in protective clear plastic

[16] A series of publications edited by Sheldon Lee Gosline

[17] Library records give 1955

[18] Ibid.

[19] Ibid.

[20] A compilation of 43 papers by the author, all of them previously published in assorted academic journals and books between 1932 and 1980. They are grouped according to topic into five sections: General; Egyptian; Babylonian; Greco-Roman; and Medieval-Renaissance

[21] A series of publications edited by M. J. Klein and G. J. Toomer
