George Valentine Cox (1786-1875) was an author. Details are given in the Dictionary of National Biography.

Zeller's Philosophy of the Greeks, translated and abridged by Cox, apparently begun on 19 January 1851. The translation is complete and the abridgement is effected by lightly crossing out various passages.

The papers were presented to the Library by Rev. H. Boyd, Principal of Hertford College, to whom it came from a daughter of the translator.

Entry to read in the Library is permitted only on presentation of a valid reader's card (for admissions procedures see http://www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/services/admissions/).
