Johann Albert Fabricius

The first book of the sale catalogue drawn up at his death is divided into two parts, theological topics and profane topics, and lists 4,772 texts. Every section is further divided. There is an appendix with further titles: In Folio (15+1), In Quarto (75+9), In Octavo (99+7) In Duodecimo (35+3) and the Musicalia (11+46). There is an index of the catalogue at the beginning of the first section. Three further parts of the catalogue were published (parts II and III, Hamburg 1739), (part IV, Hamburg 1741). Cf. J.G. Meusel, Lexikon der vom Jahr 1750 bis 1800 verstorbenen teutschen Schriftsteller, Leipzig, 1811.
