Formerly a no-man's land between literature and the fine arts, the emblem is currently being re-mapped bibliographically, making accessible tracts of this lost terrain. This volume is the second in a sub-series of the Index Emblematicus dedicated to the English Emblem Tradition, providing a uniform and systematic set of indexes to all emblematic works published in English from 1569 to 1700. Volume One contained the first four books of emblems and imprese that appeared in English. Volume Two contains the next four: P.S. (Paradin), P.S. (Simeoni), Willet, and Combe. Includes facsimile reproductions of the title pages and of the emblems. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
