==Meaning of the word "Anacalypsis"== According to the Spanish philosopher Antonio López, the word that names the title could be problematic because there isn't an explanation regarding the word itself. This is a problem that the reader may find in Higgins' book because the title is unexplained. In the original London edition of 1836, the word Anacalypsis appears only twice: once in the title, and once in a footnote on page 447, in which Higgins expresses his plan for a sequel titled Commentaries on the Anacalypsis and on Ancient History.
