Incunabula and Sixteenth Century Imprints
Incunabula and Sixteenth Century Imprints FREDERICK R. GOFF THEWISE preacher in the Book of Ecclesiastes in- formed his listeners that “Of the making of many books there is no end.” If this was true in early Biblical times, one can only imagine what this learned gentleman’s appalled reaction would be to the pro- digious and continuous outpouring from the contemporary press. No one will ever be able to estimate the number of books that have been produced since those anonymous pressmen, working for Gutenberg, commenced to pull sheets from the presses he had constructed for his first printing office. It is possible, however, to estimate in rough fash- ion the number of books, pamphlets, and broadsides that issued dur- ing the period of incunabular printing that, with some questionable exceptions, ended with the commencement of the year 1501. There is valid evidence to support an estimate of upwards of 40,000 editions that were printed on the earliest European presses at work during the first fifty years after the invention of printing with movable metal types. If, as we have reason to believe, the average number of copies produced in a fifteenth-century edition was 500, these early printers were responsible for placing in circulation approximately 20,000,000 books, pamphlets, and broadsides. There are no accurate statistics to determine how many of this original estimate survive today, but it is a matter of record that ac- cording to the statistical survey made during the compilation of the Third Census of Zncunabula in American Libraries, compiled and edited by this writer, and published by the Bibliographical Society of America in 1964 (New York), 47,188 copies of 12,599 editions were recorded in American ownership, How many other copies of incunabula have survived is a matter of interesting speculation. -

Critical Values: the Career of Charles Rennie Mackintosh 1900-2015 Professor Pamela Robertson It Is a Great Pleasure to Be Back
Keynote Speech Strand 4 Critical Values: The Career of Charles Rennie Mackintosh 1900-2015 Professor Pamela Robertson It is a great pleasure to be back in Barcelona for this exciting Congress. I am grateful to the organisers, in particular Lluis Bosch and Mireia Freixa, for the invitation to speak to you today on Mackintosh, and to all those whose hard work has delivered such a successful and stimulating event. The strand this afternoon is research, specifically research in progress. This session invites us to reflect, for a moment, on critical values and critical fortunes. How are reputations and understandings formed? What value systems are they based on? How do they shift, and why? What are the future directions for us as curators, scholars, teachers? What I aim to present briefly today is threefold: an overview of the critical literature and research surrounding the career of Charles Rennie Mackintosh from around 1900 to 2015 (Fig. 1) – in the hope that this case study will provide some parallels with your individual experiences as researchers, whether working with male and/or female subjects; some reflections on the recently launched Mackintosh Architecture research website; and finally some general remarks on future directions for research. What emerges is the significance of context and individuals; the catalyst of curators and exhibitions; the gradual transference of Mackintosh's artistic legacy into the public domain; and, for Mackintosh at least, the central role of one institution, the University of Glasgow. In 1996, Alan Crawford divided Mackintosh's 'life after death' into three phases which comprised Mackintosh and the Architects, the Enthusiasts, and the Market.1 The trajectory of the scholarly presentation of Mackintosh’s work can, I believe, be divided into five broad phases, though of course at times these overlap: 1. -
William Herle's Report of the Dutch Situation, 1573
LIVES AND LETTERS, VOL. 1, NO. 1, SPRING 2009 Signs of Intelligence: William Herle’s Report of the Dutch Situation, 1573 On the 11 June 1573 the agent William Herle sent his patron William Cecil, Lord Burghley a lengthy intelligence report of a ‘Discourse’ held with Prince William of Orange, Stadtholder of the Netherlands.∗ Running to fourteen folio manuscript pages, the Discourse records the substance of numerous conversations between Herle and Orange and details Orange’s efforts to persuade Queen Elizabeth to come to the aid of the Dutch against Spanish Habsburg imperial rule. The main thrust of the document exhorts Elizabeth to accept the sovereignty of the Low Countries in order to protect England’s naval interests and lead a league of protestant European rulers against Spain. This essay explores the circumstances surrounding the occasion of the Discourse and the context of the text within Herle’s larger corpus of correspondence. In the process, I will consider the methods by which the study of the material features of manuscripts can lead to a wider consideration of early modern political, secretarial and archival practices. THE CONTEXT By the spring of 1573 the insurrection in the Netherlands against Spanish rule was seven years old. Elizabeth had withdrawn her covert support for the English volunteers aiding the Dutch rebels, and was busy entertaining thoughts of marriage with Henri, Duc d’Alençon, brother to the King of France. Rejecting the idea of French assistance after the massacre of protestants on St Bartholomew’s day in Paris the previous year, William of Orange was considering approaching the protestant rulers of Europe, mostly German Lutheran sovereigns, to form a strong alliance against Spanish Catholic hegemony. -
