Joseph Haslewood (5 November 1769 – 21 September 1833), was an English writer and antiquary. He was a founder of the Roxburghe Club. ==Life== At an early age he entered the office of his uncle, Mr. Dewberry, a solicitor in Conduit Street, afterwards became a partner, and ultimately succeeded to the business. He distinguished himself by his zeal for antiquarian studies; his editorial labours were considerable, and he collected a curious library. Among the works that he edited were ‘Tusser's Five Hundred Points of Good Husbandry,’ 1810; Juliana Berners or Barnes's ‘Book of St. Albans,’ 1810; Painter's ‘Palace of Pleasure,’ 1813; ‘Antient Critical Essays upon English Poets and Poesy,’ 2 vols. 1811–1815; ‘Mirror for Magistrates,’ 2 vols. 1815; and ‘Drunken Barnaby's Journal,’ 1 vol. 1817–18, 2 vols. 1820. The 1820 edition of ‘Barnaby's Journal’ contains an elaborate notice of the works of Richard Brathwait, whose claim to the authorship of the famous ‘Itinerary’ Haslewood firmly established. Haslewood supplied Egerton Brydges with occasional communications for ‘Censura Literaria,’ 1807–9, and ‘The British Bibliographer,’ 1810–14. He was one of the founders of the Roxburghe Club, and conducted some of the club books through the press. In 1809, he published ‘Green-Room Gossip; or Gravity Gallinipt,’ and in 1824 ‘Some Account of the Life and Publications of the late Joseph Ritson, Esq.,’ 8vo. Occasionally he contributed to the ‘Gentleman's Magazine.’ He died on 21 September 1833, at Addison Road, Kensington. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Haslewood」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
