The Erlangen Edition of Luther's Works. 27

of the original with its manifold peculiarities exactly, special type
has been cut for the text of the work under the direction of Prof.
Tischendorf. The publication of the work will take place exclusively
at St. Petersburg; it is intended to glorify the thousand-year
jubilee of the Russian monarchy, which falls in the year 1862, and
all 300 copies to be produced are reserved as gifts for the Emperor
of Russia. In order, however, also to meet the need of individual
scholars, another edition is being prepared besides this jubilee
edition, which, in a simpler manner, though with equal critical
rigor, is to present the Sinaitic text document. This latter edition,
confined for the present to the New Testament with Barnabas and
Hermas, will appear in Leipzig and be published immediately after
the St. Petersburg jubilee edition.

An inexpensive pocket edition of our Latin Book of Concord in a neat
format, its pagination corresponding to the edition of 1612. For the
text, the first authentic edition of 1584 has been laid as the
basis. The preface, in mentioning the occasion for this pocket
edition, expresses "the earnest wish that it might indeed become a
quite general need and custom in the Church, everywhere that it is a
question of bringing ecclesiastical points of controversy nearer to
their solution, in larger as well as smaller ecclesiastical
assemblies or conferences, to bring along the liber concordiae, and
always, with the words Our Church teaches — to let it give the
decisive verdict." L.

The Erlangen Edition of Luther's Works.

While the subscriptions for the magnificent monument which is being
planned for Luther at Worms are making good progress, the
subscriptions for the outstanding Latin divisions of the edition of
Luther's Works undertaken by Heyder in Erlangen and later continued
by Zimmer in Frankfurt are so insignificant that, according to a
recent statement by the publisher, there is danger that the edition
will not be completed at all. We have seen, in the Worms undertaking
and in the response which it has found in Germany, no particular
proof that Luther lives in the heart of the German people; for that
reason we also need not, in the scant participation which this
edition has
