Book Synopsis Collections of Incunabula and Their Value for Scholars with Special Reference to the Vollbehr Collection by : Ernst Schulz
Download or read book Collections of Incunabula and Their Value for Scholars with Special Reference to the Vollbehr Collection written by Ernst Schulz and published by . This book was released on 1928 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "...These two circumstances, namely, the rarity of sufficiently large collections, and their frequently one-sided quality, make the advent of a new, large library of Incunabula, such as the Vollbehr Collection (containing already three thousand volumes) a great event indeed. It is an event which concerns the entire world of scholarship. In the first place, there is a new centre created, where large numbers of Incunabula may be studies at one time and judged in reference to one another. On the other hand, the more recently created collections of this nature, in accordance with our present day sense of values and modern interests, are wont to give preference to profane and popular classifications, thereby making up for the lacunae found in older libraries.

Book Synopsis Abstractions of Evidence in the Study of Manuscripts and Early Printed Books by : Joseph A. Dane
Download or read book Abstractions of Evidence in the Study of Manuscripts and Early Printed Books written by Joseph A. Dane and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Joseph Dane critiques the use of material evidence in studies of manuscript and printed books by delving into accepted notions about the study of print culture. He questions the institutional and ideological presuppositions that govern medieval studies, descriptive bibliography, and library science. Dane begins by asking what is the relation between material evidence and the abstract statements made about the evidence; ultimately he asks how evidence is to be defined. The goal of this book is to show that evidence from texts and written objects often becomes twisted to support pre-existing arguments; and that generations of bibliographers have created narratives of authorship, printing, reading, and editing that reflect romantic notions of identity, growth, and development. The first part of the book is dedicated to medieval texts and authorship: materials include Everyman, Chaucer's Legend of Good Women, the Anglo-Norman Le Seint Resurrection, and Adam de la Helle's Le Jeu de Robin et Marion. The second half of the book is concerned with abstract notions about books and scholarly definitions about what a book actually is: chapters include studies of basic bibliographical concepts ("Ideal Copy") and the application of such a notion in early editions of Chaucer, the combination of manuscript and printing in the books of Colard Mansion, and finally, examples of the organization of books by an early nineteenth-century book-collector Leander Van Ess. This study is an important contribution to debates about the nature of bibliography and the critical institutions that have shaped its current practice.

Book Synopsis Life of Henry David Thoreau by : Henry S. Salt
Download or read book Life of Henry David Thoreau written by Henry S. Salt and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Salt abandoned his mastership at Eton in the 1880s to devote himself to causes including vegetarianism, socialism, animals' rights, conservation, and prison reform. He remained a literary critic of distinction, publishing in 1890 the initial version of Thoreau's Life. With the help of American friends, he revised the book and published it anew in 1896. This third version, never before published, gives us Salt's final reading of Thoreau based on important works published up to 1908, including Thoreau's complete Journal. Combining a concise narrative of Thoreau's life with a perceptive treatment of his ideas and writings, it stands as a penetrating study of Thoreau, stressing his distinctive individuality. Through analysis of the text and a concise biography, the editors illustrate Salt's growth as a scholar and his changing views on Thoreau and Thoreau's philosophy. The introduction details Salt's significant stylistic improvements to the 1908 edition as well as the inclusion of anecdotes and facts gathered from Samuel Arthur Jones, F. B. Sanborn, Ernest W. Vickers, Raymond Adams, Fred Hosmer, and Gandhi. This volume is made complete with Salt's updated bibliography and an index by the editors. It will appeal to scholars of Thoreau and to readers interested in Thoreau, American Transcendentalism, or American literature.
