Folio, x,507,[1]pp., facsimiles throughout (some coloured), orig. cloth. The present volume is compiled by Lotte Hellinga with contributions by Paul Needham, Margaret Nickson and John Goldfinch. It includes descriptions of 323 copies of books, representing 221 editions of items printed in England, out of a total of 395 known to date, extensive introductions and 52 full-size plates accompanying the descriptions of printing types. Since the appearance in 1908 of the first volume of BMC the work has been relied on as one of the main authorities on the earliest printing in Europe. Its coverage of early printing from the European countries in which the new technique was successively introduced provides not only extensive bibliographical descriptions, but introduces the material with an analysis of the development of printing in the relevant areas. The guiding theme throughout the earlier volumes is the spread of printing in the fifteenth century as reflected in the British Museum Library's outstanding collection. England is the last volume to appear in this momentous series.

Gebonden, Hardcover, 255 x 200 mm, 176 p, throughout colour illustrations, E/ NL edition. ISBN 9789085866732. De Tenach, de Bijbel en de Koran zijn wereldberoemde 'heilige' boeken met een eeuwenoude geschiedenis. Ook vandaag zijn deze boeken nog steeds essentieel en betekenisvol. Ze staan centraal in de geloofsbeleving van joden, christenen en moslims. Deze rijk geillustreerde catalogus vertelt over de vorm, de inhoud, het gebruik en de studie van Tenach, Bijbel en Koran. Drie curatoren (Pierre Delsaerdt, Geert Lernout en Jo Van Steenbergen) selecteerden 45 unieke objecten - 15 uit elke traditie - en lichten de bijzonderheden van elk stuk toe. Het essay van Emilio Platti contextualiseert de gelijkenissen en verschillen tussen deze drie heilige boeken en Herman Van Goethem ontrafelt de herkomst van een Thorarol die in de Erfgoedbibliotheek Hendrik Conscience wordt bewaard. Aanvullend op deze historiserende invalshoek tonen essays van Julien Klener, Johan Bonny en Ahmed Azzouz aan hoe levend en relevant de boektradities ook vandaag nog zijn. The Tanakh, the Bible and the Qur'an are 'sacred' books known throughout the world and with a history dating back over centuries. Today these books are still as elemental and significant as they ever were. They are at the heart of religious life for Jews, Christians and Muslims. This richly illustrated catalogue discusses the structure and content of Tanakh, Bible and Qur'an and explains how these books function in religious practice and study. Three curators (Pierre Delsaerdt, Geert Lernout and Jo Van Steenbergen) have selected forty-five unique exhibits - fifteen from each religion - and elaborate on particular aspects of each piece. The essay by Emilio Platti puts into context the similarities and differences between these three sacred books, while Herman Van Goethem unravels the origins of a Torah scroll kept at the Hendrik Conscience Heritage Library. In addition to this historical approach, essays by Julien Klener, Johan Bonny and Ahmed Azzouz demonstrate the vitality and relevance still enjoyed by these religious books today.
