GOLDFINCH, John | THIENEN, Gerard van (editors)
Incunabula printed in the Low Countries (ILC). A census. Nieuwkoop, 1999. 8vo. Cloth. LIX, 636 pp
Incunabula of the Low Countries (ILC) is a census of fifteenth-century books printed in the area of the present-day Netherlands and Belgium. It lists 2,229 editions in more than 14,300 copies preserved in hundreds of libraries, museums, and archives all over the world, but mainly in Europe and the USA. The entries for this census have been derived from the Incunabula Short Title Catalogue (ISTC), the database of incunabula compiled at the British Library. They combine research on Low Countries incunabula carried out by Gerard van Thienen, curator at the Koninklijke Bibliotheek in The Hague, with data assembled by ISTC form other sources. ISTC entries were further edited, indexed and prepared for publication by John Goldfinch at the British Library. Campbell’s Annales of 1874, the first bibliography of incunabula printed in the Low Countries with 1794 entries, was followed by a number of supplements of increasing complexity, the most extensive being published by M.E. Kronenberg in 1956. All the former additions and emendations, together with additions not otherwise listed before are now brought together and included in one sequence in ILC.

JONES, Howard
Printing the Classical Text. 't Goy, HES & DE GRAAF Publishers, 2004. 16x25 cm. Cloth. Illustrated. X, 225 pp. (Bibliotheca Humanistica & Reformatorica, Vol. LXII)
The first Classical text was printed at Mainz in 1465. By the end of 1500 more than 350 printers in over 70 locations had contributed to the printing of more than 1500 separate editions. Almost every Classical Latin author had been printed, many in multiple editions, and the printing of Greek authors was well under way. Printing the Classical Text presents a comprehensive survey of this momentous period in the evolution of the Classical text. Since the course of Classical printing cannot be viewed separately from the course of printing generally, the opening chapter of the book locates Classical printing within the wider context by reviewing some of the cultural, intellectual, and commercial factors which affected the printing industry as a whole during the first fifty years of its development. The two central chapters are devoted respectively to the Latin and Greek editions themselves. With respect to Latin editions, which represent more than ninety percent of the whole, comprehensive chronological listings provide details of the printing history of each of the more than seventy authors represented. These are supplemented by a synoptic chart and by a running commentary in which the author identifies observable patterns and highlights the most distinctive features. The relatively small number of editions of Greek authors allows the author to accord them individual treatment in which each is examined in the context of its printer's instinctive publishing programme. This analysis is preceded by an account of the introduction of Greek studies into Italy, where all fifteenth-century editions of Greek authors were printed, and by a review of the typographical challenges which faced the earliest printers of Greek texts.The concluding chapter of the book takes up the controversial question of editorial quality. The author examines what the process of editing involved and attempts to assign to the earliest printed Classical editions their appropriate place in the evolution of the authoritative text in light of both the claims which the earliest editors themselves made and the less enthusiastic judgement rendered by modern critics. Printing the Classical Text will be of interest to Classicists, literary historians, students of the Renaissance, and historians of the book.Howard Jones is Professor of Classics at McMaster University, Canada, and is the author of books on Cicero, Gassendi, and the Epicurean tradition.

OFFENBERG, A.K
Catalogue of Books Printed in the XVth Century now in the British Library BMC Part XIII, HEBRAICA 't Goy, HES & DE GRAAF Publishers, 2004. Folio (28x28 cm). Cloth. 50 leaves with facsimiles and other illustrations. LXXI, 288 pp
The Catalogue of Books Printed in the XVth Century Now in the British Museum (British Library), generally referred to as BMC, is a monument in the history of the book. BMC followed on from the rearrangement of the Museum’s incunabula begun by Robert Proctor on the basis of the comprehensive survey of printing types and presses of the fifteenth century that he had published in 1898 as an ‘Index’ of the incunabula in the Museum and the Bodleian Library.  The Index represented a working-out of the system he had developed for the identification of printers of the incunabula period on the basis of typographical material.  The volumes of BMC extend Proctor’s principles by providing full descriptions of the incunabula in the collections of the British Museum and making revisions where necessary. The first part appeared in 1908, prepared by A.W. Pollard after Proctor’s death in 1903. The most recent part was published in 1985.
