Summary "Notes and Queries, Number 191, June 25, 1853" by Various is a historical collection of inquiries and correspondence among literary scholars, artists, and antiquarians written in the mid-19th century. This publication serves as a platform for intellectual exchange, where contributors pose questions on various topics, provide notes on literary criticisms, and share insights into genealogy, folklore, and history. At the start of this edition, readers are introduced to a series of intriguing notes and queries. For instance, one contributor shares stories of witchcraft in Somersetshire, where local beliefs about bewitchment are evident in the account of a pig believed to be cursed. The opening portion also reflects on notable criticisms of Shakespeare's works, revealing debates on interpretations and textual accuracy, alongside a look into the perceptions of individuals with red hair throughout history. The content outlines a vibrant exchange of ideas, reflecting the intellectual pursuits of the time in relation to literature, folklore, and history, creating a rich tapestry of inquiry that is both fascinating and thought-provoking.
