The Author Had Intended To Write A Commentary Thereon, And Had Collected Books And Copies Of MSS.

With this view, and read an article on the subject before the Academy of Padua, but did not live to fulfil his intention (d. 1797).

[See Cicogna, II. p. 386; vi. p. 855.]

12. LESSING. Marco Polo, aus einer Handschrift ergaenzt, und aus einer andern sehr zu verbessern: (Zur Geschichte und Litteratur ... von G.E. Lessing. II. Beytrag. Braunschweig, 1773, 8vo, pp. 259-298.)

14. SPRENGEL, MATHIAS CHRISTIAN. Geschichte der wichtigsten geographischen Entdeckungen &c. 2nd Ed. Halle, 1792.

This book, which is a marvel for the quantity of interesting matter which it contains in small space, has much about Polo.

15. ZURLA, Abate PLACIDO. Life of Polo, in Collezione di Vite e Ritratti d'Illustri Italiani. Padova, 1816.

This book is said to have procured a Cardinal's Hat for the author. It is a respectable book, and Zurla's exertions in behalf of the credit of his countrymen are greatly to be commended, though the reward seems inappropriate.

16. - - , - - . Dissertazioni di Marco Polo e degli altri Viaggiatori Veneziani, &c. Venezia, 1818-19, 4to.

17. 18, 19. QUARTERLY REVIEW, vol. xxi.

22. KLAPROTH, JULIUS. A variety of most interesting articles in the Journal Asiatique (see ser. I. tom. iv., tom. ix.; ser. II. tom. i. tom. xi. etc.), and in his Memoires Relatifs a l'Asie. Paris, 1824.

Klaproth speaks more than once as if he had a complete Commentary on Marco Polo prepared or in preparation (e.g., see J. As., ser. i. tom. iv. p. 380). But the examination of his papers after his death produced little or nothing of this kind. - [Cf. supra, p. 573.]
