Payne Collier, in which he gives the readings according to a "newly-discovered" emended copy of the second folio, which later came out that he himself emended in a forged 17c hand. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif""> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">I'm looking at the controlled vocabulary for fakery in the printing & publishing vocabulary. Neither "fakes" nor "forgeries" has a scope note. <a href="http://www.rbms.info/committees/bibliographic_standards/controlled_vocabularies/printing-publishing/tr294.htm">http://www.rbms.info/committees/bibliographic_standards/controlled_vocabularies/printing-publishing/tr294.htm</a> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif""> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">What do I have? The publication isn't itself a forgery--that would be the copy of the 2nd folio that Collier marked up. Do I have a "fake"? </span></p>
