Dickson, Gladys – see under Anonymous (7), above
[0] A series of publications edited at this time by Klaus Herbers in co-operation with eleven other named scholars
[0a] A compilation of nine essays authored by nine different scholars: Charles Burnett, Benjamin N. Dykes, Jean-Patrice Boudet, Robert Hand, Stephan Heilen, H. Darrel Rutkin, Katrin Bauer, and (separately) the two named editors of the present volume
[1] A compendium of 32 papers by different scholars, selected from those presented at the conference described, whose authors were invited in 1994 to revise them for publication in what eventually, over a decade later, materialised in the shape of this volume
[2] This book was issued in place of two volumes of the journal it nominally represents. For the other volumes, see the journals listings for this collection
[3] The true first publication date, although it nominally represents the 1996 issue of Archaeoastronomy, which is normally published as a serial journal and not as a dedicated book, the present volume being exceptional in this regard. Clive Ruggles jokes in his preface to this volume that the 22 years that have elapsed between the 1983 conference and the publication of its proceedings “may well have eraned a place in the record books” (p. vii)
[4] A series of publications directed by Ignazio Cazzaniga
[5] A critical edition of ancient Greek and Latin fragments on dream omens. The fragments are attributed to many different authors and fill pp. 3-[98] of the volume. They are followed by extensive studies in modern Italian.
[5a] A series of publications collectively edited at this time by Jorge Ledo, supported by an editorial board of ten
[6] A popular account of what the author claims to be an astrological tradition of ancient Mesopotamian invention but preserved (as of 1971) only in Sicily by oral tradition among rural people. The author acknowledges that a university professor names Rizzitano advised her that in Sicily everything that is unknown is habitually referred to as “arabic”, casting doubt on the historical pretences attached to the tradition
[7] A collection of mostly unconventional brief birth sign readings, divided into 1/ Les horoscopes gaulois; 2/ Les horoscopes chinois; 3/ Les horoscopes arabes; 4/ Les horoscopes tibétains; 5/ Les horoscopes lunaires; and 6/ L’horoscope des alchimistes
[8] An extract of an unidentified magazine, consisting of two successive astrological articles within it
[9] Another article by Dennewitz called ‘Praktische Astrologie’ was dated to a magazine from 1961 in a bookseller’s catalogue online, and this one must be close
[10] A series of publications collectively edited at this time by Michael Erler, Dorothee Gall, Ernst Heitsch Ludwig Koenen, Reinhold Merkelbach and Clements Zintzen
[10a] Listed on Amazon as having been published in December 2020
[10b] The advertising on the inside of the rear cover suggests a date late in 1937, as one work is advertised as scheduled for publication in January 1938 but the rest are indicated as already being available
[11] “Avec la participation technique de Robert Malzac”
[12] A series of publications collectively edited by Joanne Esner. The books in this series have erratically printed pagination, with many unnumbered pages at the end of chapters and where illustrations are present. The range of pages between the earliest printed and the latest printed numbered page has been shown, but there are many between that have no page number printed, and I have not attempted to show these details
[13] This printing thus. Copyrighted 1980, this presumed the original printing date
[14] Instructions for their use are given on pp. 193-5, where two of them together are described as making a device called an Astrosecteur, and the other two a device called an Aspectarium
[15] The contents consist of high-quality facsimile reproductions of the author’s selected writings in the Foundation’s periodicals said to have been in publication since 1950 entitled the Journal of Cycle Research and Cycles, ‘together with a few other papers’, the earliest of which dates to 1941
[16] The copyright date as given. The preface is dated December, 1868, and it would appear that some time elapsed between the completion of the text and publication of the volume
[17] This is a classic offset printing production error that the bookseller supplying this copy had failed to spot. The missing pages are confined to a single very long article spanning pp. 140-195, originally separately published as Research Bulletin 1964-1 in April 1964. This copy was procured before the copy labelled ‘Copy A’, which serves to compensate for these gaps.
[18] After the pre-publication printing declared the ‘second printing’, the first official printing of March 1947, and third printing of earlier the same month as the present one. The book was clearly a run-away best-seller, at least in relation to the publisher’s expectations for it
[18a] ‘Under the guidance of K.N. Rao’
[18b] [sic]
[18c] After the original edition of August 2004
[19] Internally comprises sixteen essays by different astrologers including Jessica Murray, Mark Jones, Faye Cossar, Maurice Fernandez, Adam Gainsburg, Margaret Gray, Sherene Vismaya Schostak, Adam Elenbaas, Rafael Nasser and the editors, among others
[20] A recent facsimile reprint of the original edition printed by James Watson, and sold by David Scot at the Sign of Apollo, within the Parliament-Closs., Edinburgh, [1712]
