  • Lost Incunable Editions: Closing in on an Estimate
    chapter 3 Lost Incunable Editions: Closing in on an Estimate Jonathan Green and Frank McIntyre Imagine, if you will, that you are a lepidopterist stationed in the butterfly-rich environment of a tropical Malaysian island. You hope to determine the number of butterfly species that live on the island, and so you resolve to survey an acre- sized patch of it for a month and record the number of individuals of each spe- cies that you find. At the end of the month, you find that a few species of butterfly are represented by a large number of specimens, while many species are repre- sented by only one or a few specimens. These results lead you to suspect that there remain many species of butterfly on the island that your survey has missed, but how many? And how many more species can you expect to discover with additional months of observation? As your opportunity to spend additional months on a tropical island depends on your presenting a convincing argument to your funding agency, these questions are of some urgency for you. This is a brief statement of what is known as the unseen species problem, which has been an area of intense study both within and well outside of the field of ecology for several decades. The example above concerning Malaysian butterflies is drawn from a pathbreaking article published in 1943 by Ronald Fisher, one of the founders of modern biology and statistics, who proposed statistical methods for estimating the number of unseen butterfly species.1 Since then, the development and implementation of these methods has con- tinued, so that several current statistical software packages can provide both an estimate of the number of missing species and determine the confidence interval of that estimation, that is, the range within which one is reasonably certain the actual number lies.2 In an ideal situation, the number of observed butterfly species will rise with each additional month of observation, but the estimate of total species will change only modestly as the confidence interval 1 R.A.

  • Johannes Gyllenmun – En Senmedeltida Ikonografisk Förvirring
    Johannes Gyllenmun – en senmedeltida ikonografisk förvirring Eva Lindqvist Sandgren Title Saint John, the Golden-mouthed – a Late Mediaeval Iconographical Confusion Abstract The pictorial program in Thott 113, an illuminated French book of hours from c. 1400 in the Royal Library, Copenhagen, is fairly conventional. But instead of the usual evangelist portrait at the beginning of the gospel, St. John is placed on the island of Patmos, where his writing is inter- rupted by a devil who steals his ink. This motif became popular around the middle of the 15th cen- tury in northern France and Flanders, a fact previously noticed by scholars. In this article, however, the motif is connected to Parisian book illumination from a slightly earlier period, i.e. the late 14th or early 15th century, and to some of the illuminators working for Duke Jean de Berry (d. 1416). The motif originated through a confusion of John the evangelist with John Chrysostom. It can be con- nected to a Miracle play, performed annually by the goldsmiths’ guild in Paris during the 14th cen- tury. The book illuminators who used the scene included, for example, the Vergil Master, although the painter of the Thott hours in Copenhagen, the Ravenelle Master, seems to have used it even more frequently. Keywords Miniatures, late medieval book illumination, John the evangelist, John of Patmos, John Chrysostom, Jean bouche d’or, devil, ink horn, Miracle play, Parisian book illumination, Bible his- toriale, book of hours, gold smiths’ guild Author Associate prof./senior lecturer, Dept. of Art History, Uppsala University Email [email protected] Iconographisk Post Nordisk tidskrift för bildtolkning • Nordic Review of Iconography Nr 1, 2015, pp.

  • An Introduction to William Shakespeare's First Folio
    An Introduction to William Shakespeare’s First Folio By Ruth Hazel Cover illustration courtesy of Stephen Collins This eBook was produced by OpenLearn - The home of free learning from The Open University. It is made available to you under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-SA 4.0) licence. 2 Brush up your Shakespeare The comic gangsters in Kiss Me Kate, Cole Porter’s 1948 musical based on Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew, offer Shakespeare’s poetry – by which they actually mean his plays – as a guaranteed way to a woman’s heart: quoting Shakespeare will impress her and be a sure-fire aphrodisiac. Today, Shakespeare has become a supreme icon of Western European high culture, which is ironic since in his own day Shakespeare’s craft – jobbing playwright – was not a well-regarded one. Indeed, those who wrote plays to entertain the ‘groundlings’ (as the people who paid just one penny to stand in the open yard round the stage in public playhouses were called) were often considered little better than the actors themselves – who, in their turn, were only one level up, in the minds of Puritan moralists, from whores. Shakespeare himself did not seem eager to advertise authorship of his plays by seeing them into print, and when some of his plays were printed, in the handy quarto-sized editions for individual consumption, his name was not always on the title page. (The terms ‘folio’ and ‘quarto’ refer to the size of the pages in a book: in a Folio, each sheet of paper was folded just once, with a page height of approx.

  • The Octavo Package Stefan A
    TUGboat, Volume 23 (2002), No. 3/4 269 The Octavo Package Stefan A. Revets Abstract The Octavo package is a modification of the standard LATEX book class, written to help produce books of clas- sical design, format and layout. The page sizes made available are the classical octavo sizes and the margins are calculated according to late Gothic precepts. An at- tempt is made to maintain the uniformity of the printing grid, and display is kept unobtrusive. − − ∗ − − 1 Introduction Donald Knuth developed TEX because of his grow- ing dissatisfaction with the commercial typesetting of his books `The Art of Computer Programming' [4]. The program grew into a typesetting system, with a great deal of attention and ingenuity devoted to the calculations of the placement of letters, words and paragraphs on the page. The preface of the TEXbook begins with the words `This is a handbook about TEX, a new typesetting system intended for the creation of beautiful books . ' [3]. More people began to use TEX, and, with the advent of LATEX, ready-made class files became part of the system. The standard style and class files tended to show off the capabilities of the system, rather than con- form to good design. Philip Taylor put it with some humour and considerable precision: `Knuth, in his closing exhortation, wrote: \Go forth now and create masterpieces of the publishing art." Nowhere, so far as I can trace, did he write: \and let every one of them shriek `TEX' from every page". ' [9]. Class files have been proposed and are available from CTAN which give the more fastidious user the means with which to moderate at least some of the excesses of these standard LATEX styles.

The Book that Gave Us Shakespeare, one of the world’s most treasured books. In partnership with Cincinnati Museum Center and the American Library Association, the Folger will tour the original 1623 First Folio of Shakespeare to all 50 states, Washington, DC, and Puerto Rico. The locations include 23 museums, 20 universities, five public libraries, three historical societies, and a theater. “The First Folio is the book that gave us Shakespeare. Between its covers we discover his most famous characters—Hamlet, Desdemona, Cordelia, Macbeth, Romeo, Juliet, and hundreds of others—speaking words that continue to move and inspire us,” said Michael Witmore, Director of the Folger Shakespeare Library. “Shakespeare tells the human story like no one else. He connects us to each other, to our history, and to themes and ideas that touch us every day. We are delighted that we can share this precious resource with people everywhere, from San Diego, California, to Gurabo, Puerto Rico, from Eugene, Oregon, to Duluth, Minnesota.” The First Folio, which is the first collected edition of Shakespeare’s plays, was published in 1623, seven years after Shakespeare’s death.

  • Olivia Brock, Incipit to St. John, Book of Kells
    Incipit to St. John, Book of Kells Figure 1: Incipit to St. John, Book of Kells, Ireland, ca. 800. Trinity College Library MS A. I. (58), fol. 292r. This illumination serves as the beginning of the Gospel of St. John within the Book of Kells, and depicts the first phrase of the Gospel intertwined within elaborate ornamentation, colors and motifs, typical attributes of incipits at the time. The strong interlace and geometric forms disguise the Latin phrase “In principio erat Verbum,” translated, incompletely, to “In the beginning was the Word, and in the Word.” The large figure presiding over the page, as well as the illustration of a man drinking from a goblet, cowering under the beast, complement the powerful words dominating the composition. Who this central figure represents, however, presents a bit of a mystery. Some contend that this figure portrays St. John, the author of the Gospel, while others view this figure as representing Christ as Logos, or the Word.1 The interpretation of the figure as Christ holds particular weight. A common understanding of John 1:1 suggests that John refers to Christ himself as the Word. Everything within the Gospels leads back to Christ, implying that he is the reason for the Word, therefore he is the Word. This image connects the concept of Christ as the Word, who actually holds a book, likely the Gospels, with the actual scriptural text designating him as the Word. Essentially, this portrayal of Christ figuratively represents the words hidden below him. The argument that this figure represents John also has strong merit.

  • THE CASE for the FOLIO Jonathan Bate
    THE CASE FOR THE FOLIO Jonathan Bate ‘The First Folio remains, as a matter of fact, the text nearest to Shakespeare’s stage, to Shakespeare’s ownership, to Shakespeare’s authority’ (Charlotte Porter and Helen Clarke, preface to their Pembroke Edition, 1903) © Jonathan Bate 2007 THIS ESSAY OFFERS A MORE DETAILED ACCOUNT OF THE EDITORIAL PROBLEM IN SHAKESPEARE THAN THAT PROVIDED ON pp. l-lvii/50-57 OF THE GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE RSC SHAKESPEARE: COMPLETE WORKS THE QUARTOS The original manuscripts of Shakespeare’s works do not survive: the sole extant composition in his hand is a single scene from Sir Thomas More, a multi-authored play that cannot really be described as ‘his’. Shakespeare only survives because his works were printed. In his lifetime there appeared the following works (all spellings of titles modernized here, numbering inserted for convenience only, sequence of publication within same year not readily established). They were nearly all printed in the compact and relatively low- priced format, which may be thought of as the equivalent of the modern paperback, known as quarto (the term is derived from the fact that each sheet of paper that came off the press was folded to make four leaves): 1] Venus and Adonis (1593) – poem. 2] Lucrece (1594) – poem. 3] The most lamentable Roman tragedy of Titus Andronicus, as it was played by the right honourable the Earl of Derby, Earl of Pembroke and Earl of Sussex their servants (1594) – without the fly-killing scene that appears in the 1623 First Folio. 4] The first part of the contention betwixt the two famous Houses of York and Lancaster, with the death of the good Duke Humphrey, and the banishment and death of the Duke of Suffolk, and the tragical end of the proud Cardinal of Winchester, with the notable rebellion of Jack Cade, and the Duke of York’s first claim unto the crown (1594) – a variant version of the play that in the 1623 First Folio was called The Second Part of Henry the Sixth.
