At some future time, no doubt, they too will be retired into the collections. The Division of Graphic Arts was established in 1886 as a special kind of print collection with the purpose of representing “art as an industry.” For many years collecting was centered around prints, together with the plates and tools that made them. Not until the middle of the twentieth century did the Division begin to collect printing presses systematically. Even more recently, the scope of collecting has been broadened to include printing type and type-making apparatus.

  • Two Missals Printed for Wynkyn De Worde
    TWO MISSALS PRINTED FOR WYNKYN DE WORDE GEORGE D. PAINTER, DENNIS E. RHODES, AND HOWARD M. NIXON The British Library has recently acquired two important and exceedingly rare editions of the Sarum Missal. These mere produced in Paris m I4gj and i^ii for Wynkyn de Worde and others., and are fully described in the second and third sections of this article. The first section gives a brief general account of the printing of the Sarum Missal for the English market during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. I THE English printers of the fifteenth century seemed curiously reluctant to print the major service-books of their own national liturgy, the rite of Sarum. This apparent disinclination cannot be explained by any lack of a market for such works. The Sarum Missal, above all, was certainly in greater demand than any other single book in pre- Reformation England, for every mass-saying priest and every church or chapel in the land was obliged to own or share a copy for daily use. Yet it is a striking fact that of the twelve known editions of the Sarum Missal during the incunable period all but two were printed abroad, in Paris, Basle, Venice, or Rouen, and imported to England. The cause of this paradoxical abstention was no doubt the inability of English printers to rise to the required magnificence of type-founts and woodcut decoration, and to meet the exceptional technical demands of high-quality red-printing, music printing, and beauty of setting, which were necessary for the chief service-book of the Roman Church in England.

The speed and efficiency of printing was greatly improved through mechanization. This took several forms including: replacing wooden parts with metal ones, cylindrical printing, and stereotyping. The innovations of printing during the 19th century affected the way images were reproduced for illustrations as well as for type. These innovations were so influential on society because they greatly increased the ability to produce large quantities of work quickly. This was very significant for printers of newspapers, who were limited by the amount their press could produce in a short amount of time. Iron Printing Press One major step in improving the printing press was changing the parts from wood to metal.

  • The Library of Hélion Jouffroy a Survey and Some Additional Identifications
    Quærendo 47 (2017) 199-221 brill.com/qua The Library of Hélion Jouffroy A Survey and Some Additional Identifications Gregory Hays University of Virginia Charlottesville, VA, United States [email protected] Abstract One of the notable libraries of early sixteenth-century France was that of the Rodez lawyer and canon Hélion Jouffroy (†1529), nephew of the better known cardinal Jean Jouffroy. The younger Jouffroy’s books, which included both printed volumes and man- uscripts, were dispersed after his death. Our knowledge of his holdings depends on a 1530 inventory, first published in 2012 by Matthieu Desachy. This article briefly surveys Jouffroy’s intellectual interests as they emerge from his collection, and offers some new identifications of texts and editions listed in the inventory. Keywords Hélion Jouffroy – libraries – inventories Hélion Jouffroy (†1529) was a doctor of civil law and canon of Rodez Cathedral. Like his better-known uncle, the cardinal Jean Jouffroy, he was a prodigious book collector: at the end of his life he owned well over six hundred manu- scripts and printed volumes. Our knowledge of his library rests on a 1530 inven- tory, first published in 2012 by Matthieu Desachy.1 * I am grateful to David Whitesell for comments on an earlier version of this article. 1 M. Desachy, Deux bibliophiles humanistes. Bibliothèques et manuscrits de Jean Jouffroy et d’Hélion Jouffroy (Paris 2012), pp. 105-150. The introduction to this book is largely identical to Desachy’s earlier article, ‘Bibliophiles d’oncle à neveu: livres et bibliothèques de Jean et Hélion Jouffroy (vers 1460-1530),’ in: Bulletin du bibliophile, n.s.

  • Printing the Law in the 15Th Century with a Focus on Corpus Iuris Civilis
    Printing R-Evolution and Society 1450-1500 Fifty Years that Changed Europe edited by Cristina Dondi chapter 4 Printing the Law in the 15th Century With a Focus on Corpus iuris civilis and the Works of Bartolus de Saxoferrato Maria Alessandra Panzanelli Fratoni 15cBOOKTRADE, University of Oxford, UK Abstract The editions of legal texts are a major and important part of 15th-century book output, amounting to about 15% of the surviving extant editions. The category comprehends two types of work: (a) the collections of Roman and Canon law, with their medieval supplements and commentaries; (b) acts and regulations produced by govern- ments and by local authorities as part of their day-to-day activity. After a general overview, this article focuses on the first group of texts, which offers an opportunity to address some key questions related to the impact of printing in a particular cultural context, that of the university. A study of legal texts printed in the 15th century aims to provide a relevant contribution to a better understanding of the impact of printing by comparing elements of continuity and discontinuity with the manuscript and later printed tradition.
