An investigation of the complex image-text relationships between frontispieces and illustrated title pages with the following texts in European books published between 1500 and 1800.
The late medieval manuscript's opening page was often ornamentally magnificent; however, this approach of announcing a text was not to be the title-page model for the printed book. The introduction of the printing press created the opportunity for a new way to open a book - a page devoted to its title and its producer. Several stages of the title-page's development are described in detail here, with illustrations from The British Library: the blank page, the label-title, the label-title-plus-woodcut and/or printer's mark, and the decorative border. This is the first book dealing with the early development of the title-page since A.W. Pollard's Last Words on the subject, published in 1891. Co-published with The British Library.
