Topic: James Orchard Halliwell Phillipps


  
  James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps - LoveToKnow 1911
HALLIWELL - PHILLIPPS, JAMES Orchard (1820-1889), English Shakespearian scholar, son of Thomas Halliwell, was born in London, on the 21st of June 1820.
He assumed the name of Phillipps in 1872, under the will of the grandfather of his first wife, a daughter of Sir Thomas Phillipps the antiquary.
From 1845 Halliwell was excluded from the library of the British Museum on account of the suspicion attaching to his possession of some manuscripts which had been removed from the library of Trinity College, Cambridge.

 James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps
In 1872 and subsequent years James Orchard Halliwell (he added the maiden name of his wife Henrietta, daughter of the antiquary and collector Sir Thomas Phillipps, in 1872) presented to the University Library ca 1,000 printed volumes on Shakespeare together with 100 volumes of notebooks and diaries as well as 300 volumes of literary correspondence.
Links with the Library had been brokered by David Laing, who had arranged for Halliwell to have access to the rare copy of "Titus Andronicus" (London, 1600) presented by the son of Roger Hog, Lord Harcarse in 1700.
By 1869 Halliwell began to make arrangements for the eventual disposal of his books and MSS after his death, and asked Laing's advice as to whether to prefer the University of Edinburgh or the University of Glasgow.

  Phillipps
Phillipps was known to his contemporaries as a contentious and difficult person, seemingly always at war with his creditors as well as with his fellow antiquaries.
Halliwell was only 21 years old at the time, but he had already published nearly 25 works on various literary and antiquarian subjects, and had, in addition, built an impressive library of his own which included 130 manuscripts, chiefly on mathematics and astrology.
Phillipps steadfastly refused to give his consent to the proposed marriage, a stance that precipitated an unexpected result: in August of 1842 Henrietta and Halliwell eloped and were married against his wishes.

As a matter of fact, he deceived the very elect into believing that these emendations were corrections in a seventeenth century hand in his copy of the second folio (the “Perkins folio”), until Nicholas Hamilton, of the British Museum, proved them to be fabrications.
A magnificent folio edition was begun in 1853 and completed in 1865 by James Orchard Halliwell(-Phillipps).
The text is very conservative, but contains more conjectures than Collier had admitted.

 What Planet is This? - Halliwell-Phillipps on the Merry Wives
In it, he describes textual variations of Merry Wives contained in a playhouse script from "the time of the Commonwealth" which he believes to be derived from a line independent to that of our received text.
There are many other such changes, so much so that Halliwell says that were he to publish them all it would be "necessary to reprint the greater part of the play".
I'm not sure whether this is just from oversight, though, or whether it's been seriously considered and rejected, and Halliwell himself says that he leaves "to others the question how far these emendations may be safely admitted into an edition of Shakespeare".
