He died in London. April 20, 1720. Collier wrote many books, including the Great Historical, (lco(]rap}i- iral, Gritralojiicril. and Poetical Diclionanj (4 vols., 1701), founded on !Moreri's, and Ecclesias- tical Histoni of Great Britain to the End of the Reign of Charles II. (2 vols., 1708-14). The best edition of the latter work is by T. Lathbury (9 vols., London, l.So2). It is a work of great learning, the lirst of its kind e.xcept Fuller's that had api)eared. But the wcu-k by which he is best known is his Hhort Mew of the Immorality and I'rof oneness of the English t>tage (1698), in which he attacked Dryden and Congreve as vig- orously as D'Urfey. and which had a marvelous success. For his life, consult the Ecclesiastical Historif, edited by Lathbury (London, 1852). COLLIEK, .JoH.v Payne (1789-1883). An Englisli Shakespearean critic and commentator. He was born in London. In 1820 he published The Poetical Decameron. From 1825 to 1827 he superintended a new edition of Dodsley's Old Plays; and in 1831 appeared his best work, a History of English Dramatic Poetry, and Annals of the Stage. From 1835 to 1839 he published tliree volumes on Sliakespeare entitled Xew Facts. Xeic Particulars, and Further Particu- lars, followed by an edition of Shakespeare in eight volmnes (1842-44). Xot content with these efforts for the illustration of his favorite author. Collier, in 1852, published a volume en- titled Xotes and Emendations to the Text of Hhalcespeare's Plays, from Early Manuscript Corrections in a Copy of the Folio of 16.32, in the Possession of .J. P. Collier. This volume is now known as the Perkins Folio, as 'Tho. Per- kins his Booke' is inscribed on the cover. The jiublication excited great connuotiim in the lit- erary world ; oi)inion was divided, and the Emendations were furiously applauded or furi- ously assailed. It has since been j^roved that all the marginal notes are forgeries. In 1802 he published an excellent edition of Spenser; and the next year he began a series of reprints of our early poets and pamphleteers. Of his later publications, the most interesting is .1» Old ifan's Diary (1871-72).
