"Comprised of eighteen stories about people who have worked hard, who sometimes struggled mightily, to keep alive a traditional way of life and traditional objects that probably don't mean much in economic terms for a society such as ours. But they do mean a great deal about who we are and where we should go in the future. Wooden boats, after all, are metaphors..." - from back cover. Unmarked. Moderate wear. Solid copy. Book

Paperback, 710 p., 210 x 270 mm. ISBN 9782503506418. Par son enseignement a l'Ecole des chartes et a l'Ecole pratique des hautes etudes comme par ses publications, Andre Vernet, archiviste paleographe et membre de l'Institut, a profondement renouvele les perspectives de l'histoire litteraire du moyen age occidental, en associant etroitement a l'etude des textes celle des conditions materielles et intellectuelles de leur transmission. En hommage a son oeuvre, ou la codicologie et l'histoire des bibliotheques tiennent une place eminente, ses anciens eleves, ses amis et ses collaborateurs du CNRS ont compose le present recueil.

Hardcover with dusjacket, 384 pages ., 178 b/w ill. + 67 colour ill. + + ills., 225 x 300 mm, Languages: English. ISBN 9781872501529. This is a book about the production and reception of engravings and metalcuts in the Rhine-Maas region during the second half of the fifteenth century. The Master of the Berlin Passion played a pivotal role in the printmaking industry of the Lower Rhine during this period. He, together with the engravers working in his ambit, specifically targeted their prints at the growing market for illustrated devotional manuscripts, doing so to an extent unparalleled by engravers elsewhere in Europe. As a result, experimental hybrid books combining manuscript and engraving were a phenomenon that flourished particularly in the Rhine-Maas region during the fifteenth century. The first part of this book deals with the production of engravings and metalcuts for the manuscript market, concentrating specifically on the Master of the Berlin Passion and the engravers and metalcutters in his circle. The motives of these printmakers related to broader cultural and social changes during the latter half of the fifteenth century. These were critical years of transition in methods of book production as printmakers and manuscript-makers across Europe strove to exploit the potential of new print technology combined with traditional craft skills. The second part of the book concentrates on the public for whom these printmakers worked. Prints that were pasted, bound or sewn into contemporary manuscripts, and which still remain in position, provide an unparalled opportunity to study the audiences of engravings and metalcuts. The vast majority of fifteenth-century prints no longer survive, and most of those that do are divorced from the original contexts in which they were used. These manuscripts thus provide an invaluable insight into the production, reception, circulation, meanings and functions of prints in the Rhine-Maas region at this time. The predominantly female ownership of Rhine-Maas manuscripts with inserted engravings is a major theme of the book. Most of the manuscripts discussed are vernacular prayerbooks or Books of Hours that belonged either to nuns or to members of the lay female gentry in the Low Countries. In many cases the books can be linked to the pietistic reform movement of the Devotio Moderna suggesting that, as in other areas of Northern Europe, there was a link between the use of prints and movements of monastic reform. This book contributes to our understanding of an important circle of print artists and their public; early uses of printing during the period of transition from manuscript to print; the functions of, and aesthetic attitudes towards, engravings in the fifteenth century and the role of engravings in religious devotion prior to the Reformation, particularly among women. Review "Tant pour l'analyse exemplaire d'une production parfaitement localisée, que pour la clarté de la méthode utilisée, la rigueur de la démonstration comme de la documentation, et l'importance des problématiques soulevées, cet ouvrage sera désormais une référence essentielle sur l'illustration et l'usage du livre à la fin du Moyen Âge, et les mutations artistiques, intellectuelles, religieuses et sociales qu'il révèle" (C. Heck dans le Bulletin Monumental, N° 164-III, 2006, p.324-326) "This book is to be highly recommended to historians of visual art, late-medieval and early-modern culture, and gender studies. this excellent book is richly illustrated."A. Stewart in Speculum, April 2006, p. 627-628)

Paperback, VI+155 p., 210 x 270 mm. ISBN 9782503524801. Palimpsests are texts from which the primary text has been effaced to make room for fresh writing. The practice was particularly important in the early Middle Ages, when numerous, often precious, books were subjected to this treatment. As a result, many ancient texts lay hidden in European libraries for centuries. Ever since the first palimpsests were discovered in the seventeenth century, scholars have been fascinated by the possibility of discovering hitherto unknown texts. For a long time, the lower script of palimpsests could only be brought back to the light of day through the use of chemical reagents that proved very detrimental to the manuscripts. The great advance away from these destructive techniques came at the beginning of the twentieth century with the application of ultra-violet photography. Today, striking advances in this field are again being made with the development of digital imaging. The contributions in this volume focus mainly on the cultural evidence offered by palimpsests from the early Middle Ages. Some contributors have examined particular manuscripts in great detail (the London palimpsest of Jerome's Chronicle or the Munich palimpsest codex from Benediktbeuern); others have looked at specific types of texts that have suffered deletion in this way (liturgical palimpsests, Carolingian letters). The volume also contains a handlist of all known palimpsested manuscripts in Beneventan script. Languages: English.
