The 1911 bio surely warrants at least a B.

[edit] Discussion
Useful entry, helpful for finding out more. It is just a shame that the Wiki has to resort to 1911 encyclo entry, but still that's better than nothing !!!Norwikian 14:42, 7 Dec 2003 (UTC)
[edit] Name
Would his name not more correctly be spelled Jules-César Scaliger, in the original French? Should this article be moved, perhaps? -- Ec5618 10:54, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anecdote
In the introduction to the eighth edition of his book The Pursuits of Literature, Thomas James Mathias relates an anecdote about Scaliger and Erasmus. Apparently, Erasmus thought Scaliger's then-anonymous oration against Ciceronianus had been written by Hieronimus Aleander.
I just thought it was interesting, and wonder if anyone thinks it could or should be included in the article. Cadwaladr (talk) 23:18, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
