An illuminating study of the unique trajectory of map-painting in sixteenth-century France. Lies of the Land examines the often-overlooked artistic roots of mapmaking practice in early modern France, offering an original perspective on discourses of accuracy and their relationship to the pictorial origins of modern mapmaking. Until the seventeenth century, most mapmakers in France were painters. Schooled in techniques of drawing and perspective—and in the careful study of nature that we associate with early modernity—they also learned the more expressive and imaginative Mannerist forms that dominated French painting in this period. Their maps draw on conventions of both painting and mapmaking…

This volume explores the production, transmission, and reading practices of vernacular Bibles in early modern Europe. This varied collection of essays provides historical, book historical, literary, theological, and art historical perspectives to the movements of manuscript and printed Bibles. The contributions concern Bibles in many different languages and from across the European continent, from Ireland to Portugal. Rather than perceiving Scripture and the material carriers of Scripture as static things, this volume demonstrates how Bibles constantly acquired new meanings and functions as they moved through time and space, and were touched by the hands of makers, readers, and users. https://brill.com/edcollbook/title/71253

Sinds het jaar 1500 heeft de Walburgiskerk in Zutphen een bibliotheek. In 1564 werd de nieuwe Librije geopend. De geschiedenis van de Librije en haar boeken is ook een geschiedenis van burgers van Zutphen die vonden dat er een openbare bibliotheek moest komen. In dit prachtig geïllustreerde boek maakt de lezer kennis met tien personen uit de vijftiende en zestiende eeuw die de Librije hebben bedacht, gebouwd en voorzien van boeken. Het gaat om een burgemeester van een stad in oorlog, enkele geestelijken van de Walburgiskerk en drie kerkmeesters. De eerste kerkmeester bedacht de Librije, de tweede bouwde haar en…

Nel contesto socio-economico della seconda metà del XVI secolo, un periodo di profonde trasformazioni culturali e conflitti religiosi, l’imprenditore librario Christophe Plantin (1555-1589), emerse ad Anversa come una figura eccezionale nel panorama editoriale europeo. Questo studio si propone di svelare i meccanismi che regolavano il funzionamento della più importante casa editrice del XVI secolo, mettendo Plantin al centro dell’analisi. La ricerca è stata resa possibile grazie alla conservazione di uno straordinario documento d’archivio, il manoscritto M 296, conservato presso il Museo Plantin-Moretus di Anversa. Questo manoscritto rivela come, già nel XVI secolo, il mantenimento di una posizione di leadership nel…

Between 1525 and 1640, a remarkable phenomenon occurred in the world of print: England saw the production of more than two dozen editions identified by their imprints or by contemporaries as ‘herbals’. Sarah Neville explains how this genre grew from a series of tiny anonymous octavos to authoritative folio tomes with thousands of woodcuts, and how these curious works quickly became valuable commodities within a competitive print marketplace. Designed to serve readers across the social spectrum, these rich material artifacts represented both a profitable investment for publishers and an opportunity for authors to establish their credibility as botanists. Highlighting the…
