Origin:
The term "miscellany" was first used around 1594 to describe miscellaneous writings and pamphlets that were bound together in a single volume. It was later used to refer to any collection of diverse or unrelated items, often with a sense of disparagement or insignificance.
Over time, the term "miscellany" has come to be used in a more neutral or even positive sense, referring to a collection of interesting or unusual items that may have historical or cultural value.
