 The 9th and 11th editions are often lauded as high points for scholarship; the 9th included yet another series of illustrious contributors such as Thomas Henry Huxley, Lord Rayleigh, Algernon Charles Swinburne and William Michael Rossetti.Robert Louis Stevenson, then 25, contributed an article about Robert Burns that, being unenthusiastic, was never printed.There were roughly 1100 contributors altogether, a handful of whom were women; this edition was also the first to include a significant article about women ("Women, Law Relating to").
