cartonnage illustre de l'editeur, Hardcover, 504 pages, Illustrated. Texte en Francais . ISBN 9782867422997. Originaire de touraine, Christophe Plantin s?installe vers 1549 à Anvers, une plaque tournante du commerce international. Il y établit en 1555 les fondements de la plus vaste entreprise d?imprimerie que l?Europe d?Ancien Régime ait connue. Génie des affaires et typographe de talent, il fait de son officine, qui a pris pour enseigne « le Compas d?or », l?un des plus importants soutiens éditoriaux de la Contre-Réforme, ce qui ne l?empêche pas de se livrer à certaines activités clandestines. Dès l?origine la production de Plantin se signale par son élégance. Sa correspondance, comme les archives de l?entreprise, exceptionnellement conservées, témoignent d?amples ambitions commerciales et du soin extrême apporté à la conception des livres. Le premier siècle d?activité de la maison Plantin-Moretus, particulièrement brillant, ses stratégies éditoriales et les exigences de sa production sont au c?ur de cet ouvrage. Il montre comment Christophe Plantin et ses successeurs ont transformé? l?esthétique du livre de la Renaissance et inauguré l?è?re baroque de la mise en page, en mobilisant un matériel typographique et ornemental nouveau, en promouvant la gravure sur cuivre, en sollicitant de manière privilégiée le peintre Pierre Paul Rubens ou des illustrateurs et graveurs de talent (Pieter van der Borcht, les frè?res Wierix, Charles de Mallery ou Cornelis Galle).

Sammelband mit 11 Schriften des streitbaren, aber unglücklichen Juristen und Rhetors Johann Ernst Phillipi (1701-1758), wovon zwei in Erstausgabe. – Inhalt, Autor: Philippi hatte 1731 die Nachfolge Gottscheds als Professor für »Beredsamkeit« in Halle angetreten, sich mit Polemiken u.a. gegen diesen, gleichzeitig mit akademisch zweifelhaften Arbeiten wie der hier vorliegenden Analyse der Rede Ciceros gegen Naevius, aber bald den Unmut der Hallenser Kollegenschaft zugezogen. Diese veranlasste den Satiriker Christian Ludwig Liscow contra personam Philippi zu schreiben (u.a. »Briontes der Jünger«, 1732), was letzterem – nunmehr als Prototyp eines „elenden Scribenten“ (Liscow) stigmatisiert – nicht nur Hohn und Spott der Hallenser Studierenden einbrachte, sondern auch zu einem anhaltenden, für Philippi letztlich ruinösen Schriftenstreit mit Liscow führte. Aus Halle entlassen wurde Philippi 1740 erstmals „als geistesgestört in Gewahrsam genommen“ (Killy), und sollte er danach nicht wieder im Leben Fuß fassen. – Illustration: Das Frontispiz zeigt eine satirische Darstellung des „Privilegirten Plasebalg Händelers“ Philippi, der „Wind-Beutel“ wie Cicero (und wohl auch Liscow und Gottsched) wegbläst. Der Haupttitel und der Anhang „Von dem Rechte der verdeckten Schreib-Art“ in Erstausgabe, die anderen 9 Pamphlete waren laut Meusel bereits in den Jahren 1733 und 1734 erschienen. – Erhaltung: Fehlpaginierung: 227/8 und 491/2 doppelt vergeben, Paginierung springt von 507 auf 518 und von 528 auf 531. Einband and den Gelenken, Ecken und Kanten berieben, vorderer fliegender Vorsatz mit Inhaltsverz. u. Anmerkungen mittels Bleistift; Buchblock stellenweise zur Einpassung in die Bindung beschnitten, jedoch immer ohne Textverlust. – Seltenheit: Obschon in deutschen institutionellen Beständen gut vertreten sind Philippis Schriften im Handel aktuell und historisch von ausnehmender Seltenheit. Laut JAP/APO und RBH kamen seit nur 3 derartige Sammelbände jemals zur Auktion (2006, 1970, 1918). – Literatur: Meusel X, 413-419 (EA v. Nrn. 1 und 11, S. 416 und 418); Killy, DBE, Bd. 7 (1998) zit.

Hardcover with dustjacket, 224pp., 30x23.5cm., lavishly illustr. in col., as new. ISBN 9781556523892. The period between the World Wars?the era of sexual liberation, Prohibition, the rise of organized crime, and the Great Depression?was also the classic era of American pulp magazines, the subject of this fascinating volume. Pulps, with their lurid color covers depicting the thrills of sex and violence, and with stories to match inside, fuelled America?s dreams?and nightmares. For a few cents they offered everything young men wanted: sex, action, adventure. But they also fostered the talents of some of the greatest popular writers of the century?Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Raymond Chandler, James M. Cain, and Dashiell Hammett, among others?and virtually invented the genres of science fiction and hard-boiled crime. From the cheap thrills of the ?hot? and ?spicy? pulps and the sexual sadism of the ?shudder? pulps to the weird worlds of the fantasy, sci-fi, and horror pulps, this book displays their art and tells their history, capturing the original magazines in all their sleazy, sensational glory.

Hardcover, Pages: 256 / Illustrations: 207 / 280 x 220 mm, . ISBN 9789461614391. In the late Middle Ages, in the time of Charles the Bold and Hans Memling, Bruges was a metropolis of books. One of the central figures in this international book trade was Colard Mansion (active from 1457 to 1484). Initially, in addition to being a valued translator, Mansion was primarily a highly sought-after copyist of luxury manuscripts, but when the art of printing made its entree in Europe in 1455, he saw his chance and became one of the first in the Low Countries to specialise in the new medium of printed books. In no time, he became one of the most important book entrepreneurs in Bruges and environs. In this book, manuscripts, illuminated incunabula and rare prints bring Mansion's innovative book business back to life. Nearly fifty specialists from around the world offer unique insights into Mansion's life, many aspects of which are shrouded in mystery. Among other things they describe the gradual transition from manuscript to print, explain workshop practices and publishers' strategies, and provide contextual information about late-medieval printmaking and the creation of an impressive oeuvre of literary editions in the vernacular. Mansion developed a brand that remained solid for centuries. This book holds the key to understanding why. // In de vijftiende eeuw is Brugge een kosmopolitische en dynamische stad, bekend om zijn boekenproductie. Luxeboeken nemen een centrale plaats in in de internationale handel en de Bourgondische cultuur. Midden in die boekenwereld staat Colard Mansion, producent van luxeboeken. Aanvankelijk is Mansion de man van fraaie manuscripten, maar al snel legt hij zich toe op het gloednieuwe medium van het gedrukte boek. Mansion drukt de meest schitterende wiegendrukken of incunabelen van zijn tijd, in een ongeziene typografie en heel bijzonder geillustreerd. Hij drukt vooral Franse teksten die nooit eerder werden uitgegeven. Die ongeziene schoonheid van Mansions gedrukte oeuvre staat centraal in de tentoonstelling en de begeleidende publicatie. De incunabelen uit de Openbare Bibliotheek Brugge en de Bibliotheque nationale de France worden aangevuld met exemplaren uit tal van bibliotheken van over de hele wereld. Nooit eerder werd zo een groot aantal wiegendrukken van Mansion samengebracht. Colard Mansions werk verbindt traditie en vernieuwing en omvat naast drukken, handschriften en miniaturen ook prenten. Tijdens de tentoonstelling maak je kennis met de atelierpraktijken van Colard Mansion en die van kopiisten, prentmakers en andere kunstenaars.
