Authority Cited: Raleigh
Author name and dates: Walter Raleigh (1552-1618)
BKG Bio-tweet: Soldier; out of Q. E. favor; poet; early colonization of N. America; plotter; History written in prison; executed by James I
Categories (list of works cited – preliminary) [BKG Note: about 350 Raleigh cites in 1755 Dict. vol. 1, about 350 cites in Dict. vol.2. Nine additional Raleigh citations have to date been identified in the 1773 Dict., indicated in bold italics below. The editions of the titles below used by SJ are unknown. The first edition of the History of the World was 1614. I am inclined to think that SJ would have found the two-volume 1736 edition easier to handle and mark. The chapters of the Essays title are separately paginated; the Discourse on War is unpaginated, perhaps from the 1650 edition typeset.]
