Concerning the great rarity of this Editio Princeps of Quintilian, there is no difference of opinion, though concerning the printer there has been much literary controversy. Reviczky gives no opinion. The references may be seen in Bibl. Spencer. vol. II. p. 305. with the reasons for ascribing it, as Audiffredi does, to the press of Philip de Lignamine. A second edition of Quintilian was printed in the same year 1470 by Sweynheym and Pannartz. Institutionum Oratoriarum Libri XII. diligentius recogniti.

Archbishop Fitz Ralph born at Dundalke and educated at Oxford, by the favour of Edward III. became Chancellor of Oxford in 1333 and Archbishop of Armagh in 1347. He was preceptor to Wiclif and is said to have assisted in his Translation of the Scriptures. In this curious work of his controversy with the Mendicant Orders of England he states himself to have seen in his youth 30.000 students at Oxford though he lived to see that number reduced to 6000. This anecdote is quoted by Henry. I have not found any account of Chonnoe. See Harris's Ware, III. p. 84. and Bale Scriptores, p. 459. where he mentions this controversy with Archbishop Fitz Ralph."
