Summary "Notes and Queries, Number 138, June 19, 1852" by Various is a periodical publication featuring a collection of literary discussions, historical notes, and cultural queries typical of mid-19th century intellectual circles. This edition serves as a forum for readers—literary men, artists, antiquarians, genealists, and other interested parties—to share inquiries, insights, and knowledge about a wide range of subjects, including antiquarian matters, folklore customs, scripts of poetry, and queries about historical figures and events. The opening of this edition contains several notable contributions. For example, an article discusses the historical significance of Daniel Defoe's pamphlet related to the Septennial Bill, exploring authorship and literary style. Another piece reflects on Arthur O'Connor, a key figure in the Irish Rebellion of 1798, detailing memories of his life and potential writings. Additionally, there are explorations of various customs, such as Lancashire May-day traditions and interpretations of certain words and phrases from historical contexts, all framed within the larger context of scholarly inquiry and debate characteristic of the publication. Each entry underlines the ongoing dialogue among enthusiasts of literature and history, making it a rich resource for those interested in 19th-century culture and scholarship.
