| Summary | "Notes and Queries, Number 58, December 7, 1850" by Various is a periodical of literary, historical, and antiquarian interest published during the mid-19th century. This volume serves as a forum for correspondence among scholars, artists, and antiquarians, featuring a collection of notes, queries, and responses on topics that range from literature and history to genealogical curiosities. The topics covered reflect the intellectual pursuits of the time, particularly concerning notable figures in literature and unique historical events. The opening of this issue presents a variety of engaging subjects, including further inquiries into the existence of hippopotami in historical records, discussions about Shakespeare's reception in Germany, and strange occurrences such as the claim of a woman having given birth to ten children at once. The contributors offer not only requests for information but also thoughtful insights and historical analysis based on their research. This blend of intellectual inquiry and anecdotal evidence traces the curiosity of the era regarding literary heritage and the recording of human peculiarities, making the publication a valuable read for enthusiasts of history and literature alike.
