Works on the training of the Memory, whether known as Mnemonics or not, have been included.
The Bibliography in its own field—publications in Latin and English—is believed to be fairly complete, from 1325 to 1888.
Most of the important works in French and German will also be found here.
Corrections of errors discovered, or additions suggested, will be gratefully received.
The following have been freely consulted: Bibliotheca Americana, Bibliotheca Britannica, American Catalogue, English Catalogue, Poole's Index, and Book Chat; also the works of Feinaigle, Pick, and Middleton; all of which contain admirable critical bibliographies, more or less extended. Where the title is a transcript from a standard bibliography the source is indicated by a letter or letters following the title.
In justice to the reader, a few words should be added with reference to some of the more important books in the following list Of Fauvel-Gouraud's Phrenomnemotechny, the North American Review for July, 1845, said: "This is one of the most remarkable books it has ever fallen to our lot to examine. In style, manner, and matter it will here-after rank among the most curious of the curiosities of literature." Dr. Pick's Memory and a Rational Means of Improving It needs no commendation here. The extracts so fully quoted elsewhere amply attest its merit. Middleton's All about Mnemonics is simply invaluable to one who would know something of the different systems and their history. The perusal of Appleby's Loisette's Art of Never Forgetting compared with Mnemonics will well repay every student of Loisette.
Dr. Holbrook's How to Strengthen the Memory is a popular hand-book, with no pretensions as a system, but quotes freely the best authorities.
Kay's Memory: What It is, and How to improve It, the last fourth of which deals with the cultivation of the memory, might more appropriately be called a Cyclopædia of Memory; so replete is it with information on every conceivable topic connected with memory. The author's broad scholarship and discriminating judgment were never more successfully enlisted. The Westminster Review calls it an "excellent, especially erudite, and for the most part thoroughly scientific treatise on Memory."
Loisette Exposed gave the entire "Loisette" System verbatim, that the public might judge of its merits for themselves. A comparison with works long antedating it showed conclusively the absurdity of the claims of the "sole originator, proprietor, and teacher thereof." The author of Loisette Exposed claimed the right to reprint the "Loisette" System on the ground that the author of it had lost his common law right by publication without copyright. And it is believed that the final decision of the courts would have upheld this claim. As a literary production Loisette Exposed would have fared badly at the hands of the critics, bearing as it did such evident marks of haste, more time seeming to have been spent in collating facts than in giving the work literary finish.
Viewed, however, from the standpoint of its aims and the results of its brief career it may fairly be called a success.
