ALBLAS, J.B.H
Johannes Boekholt (1656-1693), the first Dutch publisher of John Bunyan and other English authors. Nieuwkoop, 1987. 24,5x16,5 cm. Cloth. With 15 illustrations. 535 pp
Emphasis is on the bibliography (chapter 5, pp. 261-494) in which 127 editions are described in great detail. "... packed with valuable information for the book historian, the literary historian and those interested in devotional literature and ecclesiastical history, especially the history of Dutch Reformed Pietism" (Theo Bögels in English Studies 70,3). "Indeed, the considerable value of Alblas's study lies in the painstaking detail (correcting several previous errors) in which he has reconstructed the sycretic bookish world of later seventeenth-century Dutch reformed piety" (Nigel Smith in Journal of Ecclesiastical History).

AMBROGIO, Livio (editor)
'Nel mezzo del cammin...'. A Dante Journey through 700 Years of Text and Images. Edited by Livio Ambrogio, English translation by Martin Davies. HES & DE GRAAF Publishers, 2003. 21x29,5 cm. Soft bound. Full colour illustrations. [9], [134] pp
Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Bibliotheca Wittockiana within the framework of Europalia 2003 Italia. The catalogue casts an eye over seven centuries of the 'fortuna' of Dante as seen in editions of his work. Some of them are important, others are merely curious but they may yet be significant as giving us an insight into the spirit of the age. "Dante is today the inheritance of all of humanity, studied outside his native country as much as, even sometimes more than, in Italy. Here are exhited some witnesses of that passion" (Livio Ambrogio).

BRANDHORST, J.P.J. | HUISSTEDE, P. van
Dutch Printer's Devices 15th - 17th century. A Catalogue. With CD-Rom. Nieuwkoop, 1999. 28x21,5 cm. Cloth. With c. 2000 different devices by some 1,400 printers and publishers.. 3 volumes + CD-Rom. VIII, 1639 pp
An indispensable source of information for bibliographers and historians of mentality and visual culture. Contains inter alia a massive index of iconography, systematically arranged according to ICONCLASS classification schedules, offering some 20,000 references. "Het kan verwondering baren dat er van hetzelfde werk twee versies bestaan... een papieren versie bleek toch gewenst, waar ik auteurs en uitgever dankbaar voor ben. Hoe opwindend spelen met een CD-ROM ook kan zijn ... ik blijf het boek prefereren, want het is gemakkelijker te hanteren en je hebt er meer greep op. Het driebandige boek houdt zo te zien veel in petto. Een indrukwekkende presentatie!" (Elly Cockx-Indestege, in Archief- en Bibliotheekwezen in België, dl 70, nr 1-4, pp.319-320). "The visual and linguistic elements in the printers' devices provide historical information on the art, language, society, and commerce of the time in which they were produced. Dutch Printers' Devices provides a wealth of examples on how to analyze images and apply this rich, highly articulated system that allows for both the identification and description of broad iconographical themes as well as specific visual elements that may be depicted within those themes" (Murtha Baca, in Art Documentation, vol 19, nr 2, pp.52-53). "The abysmal searching on the Web, or even in repositories of museum images such as AMICO, could greatly benefit from the kind or rigorous analysis and iconographical knowledge and acumen demonstrated by Brandhorst and van Huisstede in their work" (Murtha Baca, at eSpectra, the online news portal of the MCN: www.mcn.edu/espectra/PrintersDevices.html).  "Dankenswerterweise haben sich die Autoren dafür entschieden, nicht lediglich die gefundenen Marken zu zeigen und systemtatisch anzuordnen, sondern sie in ihrem Gebrauch darzustellen" (Ursula Rautenberg & Oliver Duntze, in Buchhandelsgeschichte, 2001, nr 1, pp. B35-B37. "Identifikation und Vergleich dieser Druckersvignette wird möglich durch das hier besprochene Unerternehmen, das die Lücke schliessen will, die der STCN offen gelassen hat" (Jochen Becker, in Quaerendo, vol. 32, nr. 3-4 (2002)).

BREUGELMANS, R
Fac et Spera. Joannes Maire, Publisher, Printer and Bookseller in Leiden, 1603-1657. A Bibliography of his Publications. 't Goy, HES & DE GRAAF Publishers, 2003. 24,5x16,5 cm. Cloth. Illustrated. One volume with a CD-Rom containing the images of the title-pages. 792 pp
During the seventeenth century, Holland's Golden Age, printing and publishing became a flourishing industry. In Leiden, where the presence of a university contributed to that success, Joannes Maire built up, in the course of more than fifty years, a list of at least 527 titles, especially in the fields of medicine, theology and classical philology. Although he is nowadays chiefly remembered as the original publisher of René Descartes's Discours de la methode (1637), his contemporaries knew him better from his numerous editions of works of Desiderius Erasmus.Maire's cooperation in his earlier years as a publisher with the Raphelengii and Thomas Erpenius, professor of Oriental languages in Leiden, and the availability of his books at the fairs of Frankfurt and Leipzig spread his name rapidly in academic circles.Dr Breugelmans's book has several interesting elements. It is the first one to pay attention to a single Leiden printer/publisher on such a large scale. Extensive bibliographical descriptions of Maire's books form the greater part of this publication and the inclusion of their title-pages on a CD-ROM is a novelty too. An introduction, giving substantial information on Maire and his authors and on other aspects of his list, such as the phenomenon of 'parallel editions', supplies valuable further information on the working methods of a printer of that period. The inventory of Maire's estate proved to be an important source for his contacts with his colleagues, among them the Officina Plantiniana in Antwerp.
