Antiquarian
An antiquarian or antiquary is one concerned with
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
16th century; by the
19th century it had become transformed and bifurcated into the academic disciplines of
archaeology and
philology.
