The Evolution of the Frankfurt and Leipzig Book Fairs and Their Catalogues, 1564–1700 Chapter 1 The Evolution of the Frankfurt and Leipzig Book Fairs and Their Catalogues, 1564–1700 Those wishing to study analytically the catalogues of the twice-yearly Frank- furt book fair up to 1700 or wishing to chart their evolution (which cannot be understood outside the context of the closely related Leipzig Fair catalogues), have two principal aids at their disposal. The first of these are the surviving catalogues themselves, most of which have now been brought together in two places: the five-volume collection for the years 1564 to 1600 of privately pro- duced catalogues entitled Die Messkataloge Georg Willers (Hildesheim: Ohms, 1972–2001), and www.olmsonline.de/en/kollektionen/messkataloge (for the years 1594–1860).1 The website includes only one catalogue for each half-year (there are gaps, conflations, and a small number of New Year catalogues2); to see all the available versions of any given half-yearly catalogue, one may con- sult the records of the Union Catalogues VD16 and VD17 which list all surviving 1 For a review of the Messkataloge, see Oliver Duntze, ‘Die Frankfurter und Leipziger Messkata- loge als buchgeschichtliche Quellen’, Buchhandelsgeschichte, (2002), Heft 1, B10–B18. On re- dacted versions of the fair catalogues, see below, pp. 29–31. The Fair also saw the production of newssheets or Messrelationen, on which see John L. Flood, ‘Omnium totius orbis empori- um compendium: the Frankfurt Fair in the early modern period’, in Robin Myers, Michael Harris and Giles Mandelbrote (eds.), Fairs, Markets and the Itinerant Book Trade (New Castle, Del.: The Oak Knoll Press, and London: The British Library, 2007), pp. 1–42 (20); This article provides a very useful general account of the Frankfurt Fair, especially its early years (pp. 11– 14).

I am very grateful to Dr Mona Garloff for providing me with much bibliographical information, for her careful reading of this paper, and for sending me her article “Bücher für Leibniz – Wissenszirkulation, gelehrte Netzwerke und die Organisation des Buchmarktes im Alten Reich um 1700”, in Friedrich Beiderbeck and Markus Friedrich (eds.), “Wissen” in der Leibniz-Zeit. Konzepte -Formen-Funktionen-Kontexte (Stuttgart : Studia Leibnitiana, forthcoming). 2 Leipzig had also a New Year Fair, but in almost all cases, books were only exhibited at the spring and autumn fairs. Catalogues survive for the Neujahr 1703, 1705, 1706, 1708, and 1709. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, ���1 | doi:10.1163/9789004440081_003 <UN> The Evolution of the Frankfurt and Leipzig Book Fairs 7 copies known to reside in German libraries (there are, for example, three ver- sions of the catalogues of spring and autumn 1600).3 The second source is Gustav Schwetschke’s Codex nundinarius Germaniae literatae bisecularis (Halle: Selbstverlag, 1850–77). This has a useful introduc- tion on the history of the catalogues of both Frankfurt and Leipzig4, followed by annual synoptic tables. Schwetschke added the declarations of the two sales catalogues of spring and autumn together (except in the rare cases where only one sales catalogue survives for a given year), and extracted quantified data from the contents in various ways. The first of these are subject areas – Protestant and Catholic theology, law, medicine, history and geography, phi- losophy, “poesie” and music – with totals for Latin and German declarations at the fairs. Declarations of “Libri peregrino idiomate scripti”, of which the largest component is in French, followed by Italian, are many fewer in number, and not subject to analysis by Schwetschke.5 Below this, there are two lists, one of 3 In the following notes, the spring catalogue will be marked by an S before the year, and the autumn catalogue by an A. 4 Schwetschke, Codex nundinarius, vii–xxxiv. He charts the complicated history of the privi- leges relating to both catalogues from the 1590s onwards. Between 1594 and 1598, the Leipzig catalogues were excerpted from the three or four non-official Frankfurt catalogues; thereaf- ter they rely on the official catalogue published by order of the Frankfurt City Council. All others were banned from being printed in the City, but the Council had no jurisdiction be- yond its walls, and there was an excerpted version, suitable for distribution in Catholic coun- tries, produced by the Willer bookshop of Augsburg until about 1627, as well as some English- produced catalogues in the 1610s. See below, pp. 29–31. On Schwetschke, see Monika Estermann, ‘Buchhandelsgeschichte in kulturhistorischer Absicht. Johann Goldfriedrich und Karl Lamprecht’, in Monika Estmann, Ernst Fischer and Ute Schneider (eds.), Buchkulturen. Beiträge zur Geschichte der Literaturvermittlung. Festschrift für Reinhard Wittmann (Wies- baden: Harrassowitz, 2005), pp. 1–36. 5 The latest and most comprehensive record of these is in Georg Draut’s Bibliotheca exotica, sive catalogus officinalis librorum peregrinis linguis usualibus scriptorum, videlicet Gallica, Italica Belgica, Anglica, Danica, Bohemica, Vngarica, etc omnium, quotquot in Officinis Bibli- opolarum indagari potuerunt, et in Nundinis Francofortensibus prostant, ac venales habentur.

This was preceded by the 1611 edition by Nicolaus Hoffmann, which itself followed a number of other compendious bibliographies based on the data of the fair catalogues inter alia: Col- lectio In unum corpvs, Omnium librorum Hebraeorum, Graecorum, Latinorum Necnon Ger- manice, Italice, Gallicè, et Hispanicè scriptorum, qui in nundinis Francofurtensibus ab anno 1564 usque ad nundinas autumnales anni 1592 partim noui, partim noua forma, et diversis in locis editi, venales extiterunt: desumpta ex omnibus Catalogis Willerianis singularum nundi- narum, et in tres tomos distincta (Frankfurt: Nicolaus Bassaeus, 1592); Elenchus seu Index gen- eralis in quo continentur libri omnes, qui ultimo, seculi 1500, lustro, post annum 1593, vsque ad <UN>.

    Collection Development Policy Statement Rare Books Collection Subject Specialist responsible: Doug McElrath, 301‐405‐9210, [email protected] I. Purpose The Rare Books Collection in the University of Maryland Libraries preserves physical evidence of the most successful format for recording and disseminating human knowledge: the printed codex. From the invention of printing with movable type in Asia to its widespread adoption and explosive growth in 15th century Europe, the printed book in all its forms has had an inestimable impact on the way information has been organized, spread, and consumed. The invention of printing is one of the critical technological advances that made possible the modern world. At the University of Maryland, the Rare Books Collection serves multiple purposes: As a teaching collection that preserves physical examples of the way the book has evolved over the centuries, from a hand‐crafted artifact to a mass‐produced consumable. As a research collection for targeted concentrations of printed text supporting scholarly investigation (see collection scope below). As an historical repository for outstanding examples of human accomplishment as preserved in printed formats, including seminal works in the arts, humanities, social sciences, physical and biological sciences. As a research repository for noteworthy examples of the art and craft of the book: typography, bindings, paper making, illustration, etc. As a secure storehouse for works that because of their scarcity, fragility, age, ephemerality, provenance, controversial content, or high monetary value are not appropriate for the general circulating collection. The Rare Books Collection seeks to enable researchers to interact with the physical artifact as much as possible.

Not listed here are presses outside the accessioned collections, such as two Vandercook proof presses (a Model 4T and a Universal III) that are now earning an honest living in the office printing shop. 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.

  • Library of Congress Collection Overviews: Rare Books
    COLLECTION OVERVIEW RARE BOOKS I. SCOPE This overview describes the holdings of the Rare Books and Special Collections Division (RBSCD)of the Library of Congress. It excludes rare books and manuscripts in the custody of other Library divisions, such as the Music Division, the Asian Division, or the African and Middle Eastern Division. In general, all materials printed before 1801 fall into the scope of RBSCD. Although the division’s materials come into its custody for a variety of reasons – age, rarity, monetary value, importance in the history of printing, historic binding, provenance or association interest, fragility, uniqueness or scarcity – they have one point in common: the collections document at a research level the traditions of thought and learning and the social life and customs of Europe and the Americas. II. SIZE The Rare Book and Special Collections Division's holdings amount to approximately 800,000 books, broadsides, pamphlets, theater programs and playbills, title pages, prints, posters, photographs, and medieval and Renaissance manuscripts. III. GENERAL RESEARCH STRENGTHS The Division selects rare materials and special collections covering all eras and subjects, focusing on original printed sources in the following areas: the fifteenth-century book and the history of printing, European social and intellectual history, the Reformation, the history of science, travels and voyages, the illustrated book, Mesoamerica and the encounter, Americana, selected English and American authors, the fine press tradition, the contemporary artist’s book, subject themes and formats such as gastronomy and magic, and special format books such as miniature books. Criteria for the selection of rare materials and special collections include especially their long-term scholarly importance and their value as editions of a given work.

  • Rare Books and Special Collections Collection Development Policy January 2020 I. Introduction Rare Books and Special Collections
    Rare Books and Special Collections Collection Development Policy January 2020 I. Introduction Rare Books and Special Collections at Northern Illinois University Library includes those materials that, because of subject coverage, rarity, source, condition, or form, are best handled separately from the General Collection. The primary materials held in RBSC are an integral part of the educational experience, in keeping with the public research and teaching missions of Northern Illinois University. We provide students, faculty, staff, and individual users from the general public at all levels an opportunity to interact with hands-on history, and to perform in- depth research, particularly in areas related to popular culture in the United States. The nature, extent, and depth of the collection have grown with that purpose to date, although the nature of the collections is always subject to review and extension depending on the research needs of the entire community. II. Criteria for Consideration for Inclusion in the Rare Books Collection (over 10,300 vols.) All inclusion decisions are ultimately made by the Curator on a case-by-case basis. Materials that meet these guidelines are not guaranteed to be accepted into the Rare Books Collection; the Curator may opt not to add particular items due to condition, space issues, or other considerations. A. Date of Publication. The simplest general guideline for materials to be included is the publication date of the book. The cut-off dates for inclusion of material with various imprints are listed below with a brief explanation of the choice of date: 1. European publications before 1801. Teaching examples of representative types of publications from this period should be sought after (i.e.

  • Poetry, Novel, Children's Picture Book, and Memoir Writing Project Faqs for 2020
    Poetry, Novel, Children’s Picture Book, and Memoir Writing Project FAQs for 2020 How much do I need to have spent writing already? ​If you’re considering one of the year-long writing projects, you ought to have spent countless hours working on your craft. Though there’s no clear definition of what “countless hours” means, the best qualified candidates will likely have written many short stories, poems, picture books, or creative nonfiction pieces, given writing a novel, poetry collection, picture book, or memoir serious consideration and/or effort, and of course have spent years of their life reading. HOWEVER, there are those rare exceptions of writers who have not spent years honing their craft who would still be a good fit for this endeavor. If you have questions about your ability, please contact the teaching artist or The Loft for advice. How much commitment is required?​ ​By far the most important quality of the prospective student is this: How hard are you willing to work? If the answer to this question is: As hard as I have to in order to finish a collection of poetry, a novel, several picture books, or a memoir in the next year, then you’re probably a good candidate. How will the variances in abilities in the class be accounted for? What if I’m by far the best or worst writer to sign up, won’t that put me at an advantage or disadvantage?​ ​As in any writing workshop environment, there are going to be students who are further advanced or more naturally gifted than others.
