JUNIUS, FRANZ (1589-1677), son of the above, who pre pared the first edition of the Gothic Codex of Ulfilas, was born at Heidelberg, and brought up at Leiden. In 1617 he became pastor at Hillegondsberg, but in 162o went to England, where he became librarian to Thomas Howard, earl of Arundel, and tutor to his son. He remained in England thirty years, devoting himself to the study of Anglo-Saxon, and afterwards of the cog nate old Teutonic languages. In 1651 he returned to Holland; and for two years lived in Friesland in order to study the old dialect. In 1675 he returned to England, and died in the house of his nephew, Isaac Vossius, on Nov. 19, 1677. He was buried at Windsor in St. George's Chapel.
Junius published De pictura veterum (1637) (in English by the author, 1638 ; enlarged and improved edition by J. G. Graevius, who prefixed a life of Junius, with a catalogue of architects, painters, etc., and their works, Rotterdam, 1694) ; Observationes in Willerami Abbatis francicam paraphrasin cantici canticorum (Amsterdam, 1655) ; Anno tationes in harmoniam latino-francicam quatuor evangelistarum, latine a Tatiano confectam (Amsterdam, 1655) ; Caedmonis monachi para phrasis poetica geneseos (Amsterdam, 1655) (see criticism under CAED MON) ; Quatuor D.N.I.C. evangeliorum versiones perantiquae dune,
gothica scilicet et anglo-saxonica (Dort, 2 vols., 1665) (the Gothic version in this book Junius transcribed from the Silver Codex of Ulfilas; the Anglo-Saxon version is from an edition by Thomas Mar shall, whose notes to both versions are given, and a Gothic glossary by Junius) ; Etymologicum anglicanum, ed. by Edward Lye, and preceded by a life of Junius and George Hickes's Anglo-Saxon grammar (1743) (its results require careful verification in the light of modern research).
