Hi, can anyone interprete the following for me? What's the origine of the phrase?

"With the problem of _ira et studium_ which infects the works of X this article is not concerned."

Many thanks!

"Ira et studium" is Latin for "anger and partiality / bias". The classical quote is "sine ira et studio", ("without anger and partiality/bias") from the preface of the "Annals" by the Roman historiographer Publius (a.k.a. Gaius) Cornelius Tacitus.Tacitus declares his intention to write history in as detached and impartial a way as possible.

It seems that the article you quote suggests that the works of X are partial and biassed.
