This appears to be a collection, not a series.

Hi! I'm not sure what you mean by "collection." This is a single work published in 16 volumes. It is not just 16 books on a related subject—it's intended to be read as a single work. The closest comparison I can think of is something like Livy's "History of Rome," which GR considers to be a series even though it is published in multiple volumes.
