This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself.

We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Charles Beeson was born on October 2, 1870, in Columbia City, Indiana, the only son and first of three children of Henry Norris Beeson, a descendant of Penn emigrants from Lancashire, England, and his second wife, Magdelena (Wekerle) Beeson, daughter of a German emigrant. Henry Beeson, a blacksmith from boyhood, became proprietor of a successful drugstore in his early forties.
From high school Charles attended Indiana University at Bloomington. Majoring in classics, he attained election to Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Psi and two degrees: B. A. in 1893, M. A. in 1895. In 1907, he received his Ph. D. from Munich University. He also received an LL. D. from Indiana University in 1939.
During two summers of 1892 and 1893, Beeson participated in a biological survey of Indiana, exploring the Eel and Maumee river basins, cataloguing the fish of each. Early in the autumn of 1894 Beeson met a newly appointed instructor in Latin and Greek, Mabel Banta, who had recently studied at Cornell University and the University of Chicago under William Gardner Hale. His first contact with Hale was initiation into problems of text, through a new critical study of Catullus prompted by Hale's recent discovery of MS R . The second was participation in a teachers' training course, which led to his appointment as head instructor of Latin and Greek in Peoria high school from 1897 to 1901, and to collaboration with both Hale and F. J. Miller in preparation of the Hale-Buck Latin Grammar (1903), the Miller-Beeson Second Latin Book (1900), and similar cooperation on other school texts, ending with the Sanford-Scott-Beeson Third Latin Book (1923).
In 1897 Beeson and Mabel Banta were married. She henceforth resigned the classroom but not the role of colleague in her husband's career. She compiled the vocabulary for the Miller-Beeson reader, proofread copy, transcribed or collated Latin manuscripts in European libraries, and, for twenty years, taught by correspondence in the Extension Division of the University of Chicago. Beeson resumed work at Chicago as fellow in Latin and later took his degree, Ph. D. summa cum laude, at the Royal Ludwig-Maximilians Universitet in Munich in 1907.
Beeson was drawn to Munich by the great medievalist and paleographer Ludwig Traube, to acquire from him new directions in the Latin literature, philology, and scripts of the Middle Ages. Then began his exploration into the influence of classical upon medieval authors, into lexicography and grammar, and his development of the technique that discovers in the transmission of texts traces of an Anglo-Saxon or Irish intermediary. Between pupil and master arose a mutual affection and respect that Traube acknowledged by inviting the Beesons to live in his home and accepting Mabel Beeson's assistance in cataloguing his library.
Beeson returned to the University of Chicago as instructor, then became assistant professor in 1909, associate professor in 1911, and professor of Latin in 1918. In 1930-1931 he served as annual professor in the School of Classical Studies at the American Academy in Rome. He edited Classical Philology from October 1934 through 1938, although he retired from teaching in 1935.
His skill in detecting sources of textual error brought Beeson into the staff assembled by his colleague John M. Manly in Washington, D. C. , for service in codes and ciphers during World War I. He was commissioned a captain, Military Intelligence Division, General Staff, U. S. Army, July 1918. In February 1919, he was detailed by the War Department as assistant to the military attache in Paris.
Beeson died in Chicago of a cerebral hemorrhage, two months after his wife's death. Services for each, in turn, were followed by cremation in Oakwoods Cemetery.
Charles Beeson was an outstanding medievalist and paleographer of his time. His major works are: The Hale-Buck Latin Grammar (1903); The Miller-Beeson Second Latin Book (1900); Third Latin Book (1923); Ars Grammatica of Julian of Toledo (1924); The Vocabulary of the Annales Fuldenses (1926); The Oldest Manuscript of Paulus Diaconus (1929); The Authorship of 'Quid sit ceroma' (1938); The Text History of the Corpus Caesarianum (1940); The Collectaneum of Hadoard (1945); The Palimpsests of Bobbio" (1946); The Manuscripts of Bede (1947); A Primer of Mediaeval Latin (1925); Lupus of Ferrieres as Scribe and Text Critic (1930), etc. During World War I, Beeson served at the Military Intelligence Division (MID) Cryptography Department.
