Summary "Notes and Queries, Number 23, April 6, 1850" by Various is a scholarly periodical that serves as a medium of inter-communication among literary men, artists, antiquaries, genealogists, and others interested in academic discourse, written during the Victorian era. This volume is part of a broader collection that seeks to explore various aspects of literature, history, and folklore. The likely topics of the book include literary criticism, historical queries, and discussions on folk customs, reflecting the interests of the time. The content is structured around several segments: notes, queries, replies, and miscellaneous reflections. Notable contributions include discussions on Hanno's expedition, arguments defending Alexander Pope's translations, inquiries into historical proverbs, and various folk customs, such as the belief surrounding Palm Sunday winds.
