Roger Ascham: Toxophilus, 1545 (1868) is a book written by Edward Arber that provides a complete description of the work of the famous English scholar and tutor, Roger Ascham. The book is a reprint of Ascham's work, which was originally published in 1545, and is considered to be one of the most important works on archery in English literature. Toxophilus is a dialogue between two characters, Philologus and Toxophilus, who discuss the art of archery and its importance in English society. Ascham's work is notable for its clear and concise style, and for its emphasis on the importance of education and the pursuit of knowledge. The book includes a comprehensive introduction by Arber, which provides historical context for Ascham's work and discusses its significance in the development of English literature. Overall, Roger Ascham: Toxophilus, 1545 (1868) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of archery, English literature, or the intellectual and cultural history of England during the Renaissance period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
