Historical Note. Text and Studies began in 1891, under the editorship of J. Armitage Robinson (1859-1933). It was first conceived at a breakfast in Robinson’s rooms in Christ’s College, Cambridge in August, 1890. M. R. James, one of the group, wrote that he and such “various divines as Rendel Harris, Wallis, Harmer, and Parry, met and attempted to concert a plan of a series of Biblical and Patristic Studies, a sort of organ that would appear at irregular intervals and contain texts, articles, and monographs too short for a book and too long for a paper.”
