It may properly be called the first psychiatric encyclopedia for nearly one thousand authors are cited, about half of them medical. It was so popular that five editions appeared in Burton's lifetime and three more in the seventeenth century."(Hunter and Macalpine) "The one major product of [Robert Burton's] eccentric life was his 'Anatomy of Melancholy' (1621), a long and serious study of the causes, symptoms, and cures of the 'black distemper' from which, reportedly, the author himself suffered. The erudite Oxford scholar who never married or even traveled 'but in map or card' put all of his life in 'The Anatomy of Melancholy', a work so profusely documented with thousands of allusions to authors from Galen to Bacon as to suggest that for Burton the choicest part of living was reading. His treatise is systematically divided into three principal parts: causes, symptoms, and prognoses of melancholy; cures and alleviations of melancholy; and symptoms of love and religious melancholy, the two classic manifestations of the malady. Burton's' tripartite arrangement, however, does not prevent him from engaging in long digressions on human anatomy and the nature of spirits, observations on manners and morals, or descriptions of his own ideal commonwealth. For most readers, Burton's didactic or satiric anecdotes and well-placed allusions, however digressive, constitute one of the chief allurements of his book. Few readers have regretted the fact that although Burton was thoroughly conversant with Bacon and the 'new science,' and sympathetic to his aims, he could not resist imposing on every problem his own eccentric and restless imagination. Nor could he, for all his scientific values, overcome his peculiar conceptions of logic and his penchant for proving a case by the medieval method of totaling masses of authorities on either side of a given question." (James Ruoff in Crowell's Handbook of Elizabethan and Stuart Literature, pages 50-51) Samuel Johnson used the "Anatomy of Melancholy" in compiling his Dictionary. Boswell reports that Burton's was the only work that Johnson rose early in the morning to read with pleasure.
