Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. 4to (25.5 cm), 328 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (minor shelf-wear). A collected volume of revised "Randeria Lectures," an annual series on bookbinding history endowed by Dr Phiroze Randeria and organised by the Bibliographical Society from 1991. The present publication is dedicated to Randeria's memory following his death in May 2001 and brings together essays by leading scholars in the field of bookbinding history and material bibliography. The contributions explore the interpretation of bookbindings as historical artefacts, combining structural analysis, provenance research, and cultural context. Mirjam M. Foot provides reflections on methodological challenges in binding studies, while Jan Storm van Leeuwen examines what pictorial representations of bindings can reveal about ownership and use. Other essays address prize bindings over four centuries (Christian Coppens), English centre-piece bindings 1560-1640 (David Pearson), and sixteenth-century binding structures in the Ramey collection at the Pierpont Morgan Library (Nicholas Pickwoad). Additional studies include Giles Barber on the Padeloup and Derome workshops and eighteenth-century Parisian gold-tooled bindings; Mirjam M. Foot on Irish bookbinding in the eighteenth century; Esther Potter on the trade binder Benjamin West (1805-1883); and Marianne Tidcombe on women bookbinders in Britain before the First World War. A collaborative essay by Foot, Carmen Blacker, and Nicholas Poole-Wilson examines issues of collecting, dealing, and forgery in nineteenth-century binding history. A substantial and authoritative collection reflecting the methodological maturity of modern bookbinding studies, and a key reference for the history of the craft and its historiography.…
