Nounantiquarian (plural antiquarians)
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. An antiquarian or antiquary is an aficionado of antiquities or things of the past. Also, and most often in modern usage, an antiquarian is a person who deals with or collects rare and ancient "antiquarian books". More narrowly, the term is often used for those who studied history with special attention to "antiques", meaning ancient objects of art or science as physical traces of the past. Antiquarianism is usually considered to have emerged in the Middle Ages (see History of archaeology). By the 19th century, it had become transformed and bifurcated into the academic disciplines of archaeology and philology. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License From which English family did Countess Mary von Bothmer, author of German Home Life (published 1876) come? Q. I am reading her book, but there is no biography of this author provided. She apparently lived in Germany because of marriage to a von Bothmer (I would be curious as to his identity as well). Web search engines reveal a plethora of von Bothmers in the United States and Germany, but I am wondering what became of Mary's own children. Her wry and trenchant observations of differences between English and German habits makes for an antiquarian volume that is hard to put down!
