The Italian Book 1465-1800
The introduction of printing in Italy coincided with the flowering of the Renaissance in Europe. Enterprising printers established themselves in many towns, and a complex interrelated network of authors, suppliers and booksellers developed to serve the expanding market both at home and throughout Europe. The Italian Book 1465-1800 addresses a host of issues and problems, which three centuries of the history of the book in Italy, present for modern researchers, in essays written by scholars in the field of historic bibliography. The volume is published in honour of Dennis E. Rhodes, retired Deputy Keeper in the British Library, and a prolific contributor to scholarly study of printing in Italy.
The Spread of Printing. Eastern Hemisphere: India, Burma, Ceylon
This volume is published as part of the series The Spread of Printing, a history of printing outside Continental Europe and Great Britain. The print edition is available as a set of eleven volumes (9789063000257).
Studies in Early European Printing and Book Collecting
This second volume of Dr. Rhodes' Studies covers the wider field of early printing in Western Europe outside of Italy. The spread of printing in England receives considerable attention, especially in the case of the London and Oxford presses. There are separate sections on printing in France, Germany, Spain and the Low Countries over this period. Of particular importance is the final series of articles on early collectors of printed books in Western Europe, which deals equally with the collectors and their libraries, including, in this case, the Italian collections.
Further Studies in Italian and Spanish Bibliography
This new volume by Dr. Rhodes consists of forty studies on the printing and bibliography of Italy and Spain published over the years 1981-1991. The Italian material relates largely to printing in the Northern Italian cities in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, including Verona, Venice, Brescia, Treviso and Bologna. The Spanish papers deal with Italo-Spanish editions and cross-influences in this period, and the early printing of a number of important Spanish centres.
Studies in Early Italian Printing
This selection of 57 studies by Dr. D. E. Rhodes focuses on the history of printing in Italy from the earliest printers of the 15th century to the flourishing of regional presses in the 16th and 17th centuries. The author is a leading authority on early printed books, and the present volume brings together for the first time a number of important articles on early printing in Venice, Rome, Mantua and Milan, and also covers the presses of Southern Italy, and the smaller Italian towns. The articles have been up-dated where necessary, with the addition of bibliographical notes and an index. There is a preface by George Painter.
