Footnotes
A note is a string of text placed at the bottom of a page in a book or document or at the end of a chapter, volume, or the whole text. The note can provide an author's comments on the main text or citations of a reference work in support of the text. Footnotes are notes at the foot of the page while endnotes are collected under a separate heading at the end of a chapter, volume, or entire work. Unlike footnotes, endnotes have the advantage of not affecting the layout of the main text, but may cause inconvenience to readers who have to move back and forth between the main text and the endnotes. In some editions of the Bible, notes are placed in a narrow column in the middle of each page between two columns of biblical text. Numbering and symbols In English, a footnote or endnote is normally flagged by a superscripted number immediately following that portion of the text the note references, each such footnote being numbered sequentially. Occasionally, a number between brack ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Giuseppe Bianchini
Giuseppe Bianchini (1704 in Verona – 1764 in Rome) was an Italian Oratorian, biblical, historical, and liturgical scholar. Clement XII and Benedict XIV, who highly appreciated his learning, entrusted him with several scientific labors. Bianchini had contemplated a large work on the texts of the Bible, ''Vindiciæ Canonicarum Scripturarum Vulgatæ latinæ editionis'', which was to comprise several volumes, but only the first, in which, among other things, are to be found fragments of the ''Hexapla'' ( Codex Chisianus), was published (Rome, 1740). Much more important is his ''Evangeliarium quadruplex latinæ versionis antiquæ'', etc., 2 vols. (Rome, 1749). Among his historical works may be mentioned the fourth volume which Bianchini added to the publication of his uncle, Francesco Bianchini, ''Anastasii bibliothecarii Vitæ Rom. Pontif.'' (Rome, 1735); he also published the ''Demonstratio historiæ ecclesiasticæ quadripartitæ'' (Rome, 1752–54). The chief liturgical work of ...
