RE: George Wythe's Library


Source material concerning George Wythe and his library is extremely scarce. However, we do know that he was a great scholar and a man of varied interests. His knowledge of the classics was renowned. Hemphill says that in classical literature "lay through out a long lifetime his chief intellectual interest, and until he was about fifty years of age, his unremitting diligence in self-instruction was concentrated primarily on the acquisition of facts and principles recorded by the writers of ancient Greece and Rome."1 It is impossible to know exactly which classics Wythe read, but there are references to Justinian's Roman code, Homer's Iliad, Cicero’s orations, Tacitus, Polybius, Vitruvius, Euripedes, Herodotus, Phlegon, Virgil, Xenophon, Theocritus and Terence. Wythe also made a detailed study of the Greek and Latin languages. He kept a notebook containing "notes of his personal research in the etymology of Greek and Latin words. About 150 pages of this book … contain his comparisons of Latin equivalents with the original Greek text of Homer’s Iliad and with other Hellenic literature."2 Wythe's knowledge of the law was no less far reaching. He was a prominent member of the bar, a law professor and judge of the Court of Chancery. Wythe found time

to pursue other subjects as well. He taught himself French, and after moving to Richmond, learned Hebrew. He studied architecture, algebra, mathematics, natural philosophy, and physical science. He was a music lover and an amateur gardener. As he grew older, Wythe became more immersed in a life of books. He "became ever more pedantic and obscure. At the same time he sought out more and more the most esoteric of information."3

There are a few titles which we definitely know Wythe-possessed. These are listed below. In each case the source is noted after the entry.

Wythe bought several books from the Virginia Gazette Office, and ordered others from John Norton and Sons of London. We don't know if they were purchased for himself or for others, but inasmuch as they are all titles in his fields of interest, it is highly possible that he bought them for himself.

Another major source for titles are the commonplace books and other records kept by Wythe's students. It seems reasonable to assume that any book Wythe would assign his pupils to read, he would have first studied himself.

There is evidence that. Wythe had read several books not included in any of the above lists. It is possible that he borrowed one or all of these books from someone else, but it is also possible that they were in his library. At least we know that, he did indeed read them.

  • Swift, Jonathan. Tale of a Tub.... 1704. [Mayo, p. 26.][2]


The following is a list of works we know Wythe wrote or collaborated on. Other of his writings are noted above.

Alan Smith in "Virginia Lawyers 1680-1776..." discusses standard law books of the period and also mentions some of the works found in colonial Virginia law libraries. Listed below are the titles he mentions which I have not already listed. Although there is no proof that Wythe owned any of
