Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Limited Edition. One of 320 copies, this copy numbered 260. Large folio (37cm*27cm). Publisher's white pigskin, spine and front cover lettered in blind, 137 full page coloured minatures of poets whose works are included in the volume, Gothic characters, double column, 844 pp., housed in burgundy slipcase with cloth ribbons. Published by Insel-Verlag (Leipzig), 1925-1927. A little soiling to covers, some minor spotting to endpapers, some mottling to slipcase; near fine. This particular facsimile edition is remarkably important as it marked the first time that a complete full facsimile of the Codex Manesse was produced. Prior to the publication of this edition, only a part facsimile had been produced in Paris in 1852, and a facsimile of just the miniatures was produced in 1886. Later facsimiles were produced, however none better this edition, ensuring it remains the most coveted by libraries and collectors. The publisher ensured that this facsimile was an accurate reproduction, replicating the library stamps, early annotations, uneven page edges, and discolouration to the pages, which feature with the original manuscript. This edition is permanently on display at the University of Heidelberg. The University of Heidelberg holds the original manuscript, where it is rarely displayed due to its fragility. A copy of this facsimile is instead displayed to visitors. Anton Kippenberger (1874-1950), the director of the publisher Insel-Verlag, had aspired since 1920 to produce the technically complex reproduction of the manuscript. "The production process, however, was considerably more elaborate than for the Gutenberg Bible. 137 full-page miniatures (in up to eight colours) and more than 700 pages of text had to be reproduced . The 1st August deadline for the completion of the first delivery could not be met, as the hand-made paper from Zanders did not fulfil the quality requirements . Only a third delivery of paper fulfilled all requirements . The Manessische Liederhandschrift was an international sensation. For scholars it was a great gain, for the codex had by no means been accessible to everyone, even in Heidelberg". (Sarkowski) (Heidelberg University Library.)
