Excerpt from The Dedication of Books to Patron and Friend: A Chapter in Literary History
Many articles have been written on book dedications, notably the one in D'Israeli's Curiosities of Literature; and the late Mr. Huth printed privately an interesting and valuable volume (edited by Mr. W. C. Hazlitt), in which a large number of dedications and prefaces are reproduced; but I believe that the present is the first instance of a book being entirely devoted to the history of this topic.
In the following pages I have attempted to trace the subject through its three phases. In its first stage dedications are seen as the spontaneous expression of an author's love and respect for his friend or his patron.
