Libro
Condizione: Gut. 40 S., 3 Tafeln. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - This volume was first published as part of Diirer's theoretical treatise on applied geometry, "Underweysung der Messung mit dem Zirckel und Richtscheyt" (1525), usually known in English as "The Art of Measurement." Diirer's interest in the art (or betterscience) of lettering was a natural outgrowth of his own practical and theoretical preoccupations and of the growing interest throughout Western Europe in writing and instructional copy-books (stimulated by the introduction of the printing press, the consequent wider dissemination of books, and the expanding Renaissance spirit). "Of the Just Shaping of Letters" is principally concerned with setting out precise rules for the geometric construction of Roman capitals (majuscules)-those classical letters seen in stone inscriptions. Dürer constructs each letter by inscribing it in a square of specific size, "building" the character out of elements of the square, arcs of circles drawn from particular points, and so forth. In each case, the book gives a construction diagram with accompanying explanatory text and at least one finished example of the letter. For most letters, alternative designs are shown. The remainder of the book provides directions and examples for the forming of "textur" or quadrate minuscules (Gothic lower case) and Gothic capitals. The section begins by showing the reader how to make the letter "i "-the letter around which almost every other Gothic minuscule is formed. Diirer's famous set of Gothic capitals foreshadows the much- admired Fraktur style of lettering. ISBN 0486213064 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550 Mit zahlr. Abb. Originalbroschur.

Rogers, Bruce (illustratore). Quarto. (vi), 46pp. One of 215 copies printed by Emery Walker and Wilfred Merton at the Mall Press, Hammersmith. Frederic Goudy's copy, with a Frederic and Bertha Goudy Collection bookplate. This work is beautifully printed after a design by Bruce Rogers, with many pages of typographic illustrations, as well as pictorial title and initials. This is the first book Rogers printed on English soil, and is, justifiably, a BR30 title. As Joseph Blumenthal recounts in Bruce Rogers: A Life in Letters, after experiencing "a growing sense of despondency and discouragement," in his later years at Riverside, Rogers accepted Emery Walker's invitation to come to England to print with him. This book, the first product of that collaboration, which also introduced Rogers to Wilfred Merton, is the only work completed by the Mall Press. Fifteen years later, Rogers, Walker, and Merton would combine their acumen in the design and printing of T.E. Lawrence's translation of The Odyssey. Bound in vellum-backed marbled paper over boards, title stamped in gilt to spine, with original plain paper dust jacket. Very good; jacket worn, edgewear to boards, with minor bumps to corners and small nick to head of spine, front hinge a bit tender. Library markings to rear paste-down. Otherwise a superb association copy of one of Rogers's rarer works. (The Work of Bruce Rogers 236; also see Blumenthal, pp. 38-63).
