Appendix C

Textual Emendations

in this list, following the page and line numbers, the reading of the copy-text is given first, and then the emended reading in square brackets, with explanation if required. “SC” indicates Mill’s library, Somerville College, Oxford. Typographical errors in versions earlier than the copy-text are ignored. In the two cases when manuscripts are the copy-texts, end-of-line punctuation, which Mill frequently omits, has been silently supplied.
