Transcribers' Notes
Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unbalanced quotation marks retained.
Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained.
Inconsistent use of small-caps for the abbreviation "Fig." has been retained: full-page Plates did not use small-caps; other illustrations did.

Words not in Modern English have not been checked for spelling.
Index not checked for proper alphabetization or correct page references.

Missing or incorrect accent marks in German words have not been changed.
