Summary "Notes and Queries, Vol. IV, Number 91, July 26, 1851" by Various is a collection of essays, notes, and queries relevant to literature, history, and folk traditions written in the mid-19th century. This volume serves as a platform for scholars, antiquaries, and literary enthusiasts to communicate and share insights on a variety of topics, thereby fostering discussions in areas like philology, genealogy, and folklore. At the start of this volume, the reader is presented with a range of intriguing subjects, indicating the diversity of interests among its contributors. The first focus is on Richard Rolle of Hampole, a medieval writer, with excerpts from his metrical sermons. The text captures the essence of the complaints regarding societal issues, including the treatment of the poor by the wealthy, as well as the exploration of medicinal folklore involving animals like mice. Other discussions include queries about the etymology of historical terms, anecdotes from English folklore, and even contributions on notable literary figures. Overall, the opening portion sets the stage for a rich tapestry of cultural and literary exploration that characterizes this unique assemblage of knowledge.
