Abstract

Since the Gutenberg Bible first went on sale in 1455, printing has been viewed as one of the highest achievements of human innovation. But the march of progress hasn't been smooth; downright bizarre is more like it. Printer's error chronicles some of the strangest and most humorous episodes in the history of Western printing, and makes clear that we've succeeded despite ourselves. Rare-book expert Rebecca Romney and author J. P. Romney take us from monasteries and museums to auction houses and libraries to introduce curious episodes in the history of print that have had a profound impact on our world.

Abstract

La 4ème de couverture indique :"De l'invention de l'écriture à la révolution numérique, l'ambitieuse synthèse de Yann Sordet, richement documentée et illustrée, retrace, des origines à nos jours, les grandes étapes et révolutions de l'histoire du livre, de sa production, circulation, réception et économie, mais aussi de ses usages, formes et mutations majeures - expansion du codex au début de l'ère chrétienne, mise au point de la typographie en Europe au XVe siècle, invention des périodiques au début du XVIIe, engagement de la librairie dans la société de consommation et mondialisation du marché de l'édition depuis le XIXe, dématérialisation des procédés au XXe siècle ... Cette vaste enquête embrasse ainsi l'ensemble de la production écrite, quelles que soient sa vocation - pédagogie, combat, culte, information -, et ses formes - succès de librairie parfois planétaires, almanachs, publications éphémères et imprimés du quotidien -, tout en interrogeant une ambiguïté fondatrice : à la fois objet et produit manufacturé, le livre est aussi un bien symbolique, une œuvre à la valeur identitaire forte. Elle porte enfin une grande attention à la diversité des acteurs de cette histoire générale du livre et de l'édition : auteurs, législateurs, copistes, artistes enlumineurs ou graveurs, imprimeurs-libraires puis éditeurs ..., mais aussi lecteurs, collectionneurs, bibliothécaires ..., et à leurs interactions."

Abstract

Natural Enemies of Books is a response to the groundbreaking 1937 publication Bookmaking on the Distaff Side, which brought together contributions by women printers, illustrators, authors, printers, typographers and typesetters, highlighting the print industry's inequalities and proposing a takeover of the history of the book. Edited by feminist graphic design collective MMS, (Maryam Fanni, Matilda Flodmark and Sara Kaaman), 'Natural Enemies of Books' includes newly commissioned essays and poems by Kathleen Walkup, Ida Börjel, Jess Baines, Ulla Wikander and conversations with former typesetters Inger Humlesjö, Ingegärd Waaranperä, Gail Cartmail and Megan Downey, as well as reprints of the original book

Abstract

"Der Band erschliesst, was wir über die Technik und das Handwerk in Druckereien bei der Herstellung von Büchern aus der Zeit von 1450 bis etwa 1800 wirklich wissen. Thematisiert werden die Bedruckstoffe, die Typenherstellung, die Satzherstellung, das Drucken auf der Handpresse, der Druck von Bildern, der Notendruck, der Betrieb einer Druckerei und die Bindung von Büchern.Der Betrachtungszeitraum beginnt mit den Anfängen des Druckens mit Einzeltypen durch Johannes Gutenberg in der Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts und schlie�t mit dem Ende der Nutzung der hölzernen Handpresse Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts. Zugrunde liegen 120 Quellen bzw. Quellenverzeichnisse, 101 Abbildungen sowie praktische Versuche und die Drucke selbst. Da sich in Europa unterschiedliche Gepflogenheiten für das Druckwesen ausgebildet haben, wird auf den deutschen Sprachraum fokussiert, es werden aber auch die relevanten Quellen der anderen Sprachbereiche berücksichtigt. Christoph Reske legt damit nunmehr eine umfassende druckhistorische Darstellung für den genannten Zeitraum vor. Dabei schlägt er für viele bisher unklare Phänomene Lösungen vor und präzisiert die bisher in wissenschaftlichen Darstellungen oft verwendeten Pauschalierungen." --

Abstract

With the advent of new digital communication technologies, the end of print culture once again appears to be as inevitable to some recent commentators as it did to Marshall McLuhan. And just as print culture has so often been linked with the rise of modern industrial society, so the alleged demise of print under the onslaught of new media is often also correlated with the demise of modernity. This book charts the elements involved in such claims-print, culture, technology, history-through a method that examines the iconography of materials, marks and processes of print, and in this s

Abstract

"The author has brought her forty years of letterpress printing experience to the examination of the printing practices of Zainer during his first five years of operation in Ulm. The 1470s were a vital period in the development of printing? new practitioners were taking up the trade and, as they did so, adapting existing methods and developing new ones. The two-pull press was introduced during this decade in most European centres. Zainer is a particularly good choice for this examination as he was a careless printer who left many traces on his pages, traces which today would be termed printer?s errors, and which have left a rich trail for the printing detective to follow. From her discoveries about Zainer?s practices Dr Bolton has been able to track back to the work of earlier printers, as well as to compare editions printed by some of his contemporaries, thus providing new evidence and a better understanding for incunabulists and printing historians."--

Abstract

"This book examines the early development of the graphic arts from the perspectives of material things, human actors and immaterial representations while broadening the geographic field of inquiry to Central Europe and the British Isles and considering the reception of the prints on other continents. The role of human actors proves particularly prominent, i.e. the circumstances that informed creators', producers', owners' and beholders' motivations and responses. Certainly, such a complex relationship between things, people and images is not an exclusive feature of the pre-modern period's print cultures. However, the rise of printmaking challenged some established rules in the arts and visual realms and thus provides a fruitful point of departure for further study of the development of the various functions and responses to printed images in the sixteenth century. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, print history, book history, and European studies"
