Abstract
THIS very attractive volume, bound in the light blue which stands for the colour of Cambridge, contains the Latin speeches and letters which for thirty-three years Dr. Sandys has delivered as public orator for the University of Cambridge. In 1909 Dr. Merry, the public orator of Oxford, published his admirable orations, delivered in the Sheldonian Theatre during thirty years, and in the same year, by a curious chance, appeared a volume containing 141 brief speeches delivered by three successive public orators of Trinity College, Dublin—Drs. Palmer, Tyrrell, and Purser.
Orationes et Epistolae Cantabrigienses (1876–1909).
By Dr. John Edwin Sandys. Pp. xiv + 290. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1910.) Price 10s. net.
