		Reiske's linguistic knowledge was great, but he used it only to understand his authors; he had no feeling for form, for language as language, or for metre.

	Richard Dawes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		His mind seems to have become unhinged; his continual disputes with his governing body ruined the school, and in 1749, he resigned and retired to Heworth, where he spent most of his time boating.
		The book on which Dawes' fame rests is his Miscellanea critica (1745), which gained the commendation of such distinguished continental scholars as LC Valckenaer and Johann Jakob Reiske.
		The Miscellanea, which was re-edited by T Burgess (1781), Gottlieb Christoph Harless (1800) and Thomas Kidd (1817), for many years enjoyed a high reputation, and although some of the "canons" have been proved untenable and few can be accepted universally, it will always remain an honourable and enduring monument of English scholarship.

		That this change of perspective, the freedom of research and the emancipation of Arabic and Islamic studies from theological patronage, was not that easy shows up in the work and still more the autobiography (Lebensbeschreibung, 1783) of that gifted but non-recognised Arabist Johann Jakob Reiske (1716-74).
		As Reland was a predecessor of the modern study of the religion of Islam, Reiske, besides being an Arabist according to modern standards, in his Prodidagmata ad Hagji Chalifae librum memorialem (written 1747, published 1766) was a predecessor of the modern study of Islamic history.
		Another sign of the new open spirit was the kind of thoughtful travel literature which saw the light now, as for instance Volney's (1757-1820) Voyage en Syrie et en Egypte (1787).
