For a note on Dalzel, see the next number. A second part of the
Collectanea Græca was issued in 1802.

Andrew Dalzel, 1742-1806, Scots classical scholar, was one of the founders of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. He was associated with Edinburgh
University for a number of years, holding the office of librarian and professor of Greek. This work and the
Collectanea Græca Majora
were compiled for the benefit of his own pupils, but were frequently reprinted both in the British Isles and in the United
States and used in schools in both countries.
