ASSAULTS ON THE FAITH: IMAGINING JEWS AND CREATING CHRISTIANS IN THE LATE MIDDLE AGES By BROOKE FALK A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Art History Written under the direction of Dr. Laura Weigert And approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey January, 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Assaults on the Faith: Imagining Jews and Creating Christians in the Late Middle Ages By BROOKE FALK Dissertation Director: Laura Weigert My dissertation examines manuscripts and early printed books of the “Fortress of Faith” (Fortalitium fidei) as influential works in late medieval constructions of Jewish and Christian identity. I argue that the “Fortress of Faith” moves beyond traditional polemics in its comprehensive use of popular argumentative approaches, particularly in its use of images, which appealed to a variety of late medieval audiences. I suggest a revised stemma, giving preference to the influence of woodcuts over miniatures. Through both types of images, Christians were armed with mental pictures of themselves as knights guarding a Christian fortress. The first two chapters study surviving manuscripts and incunabula of the text with regard to their material execution, visual imagery, verbal content, and regional production and dissemination. The presentation of the text evolved with its shifting audience from the time it was composed around 1460 by a Castilian Franciscan friar to the time it was translated into French and illuminated around 1480 and also while it was printed numerous times between 1471 and 1525.

  • Claire Bolton: ‘Fallen’ Type Letters
    Claire Bolton: ‘Fallen’ type letters. Fig.1 Diagram of a piece of early type. Printing was invented with movable type letters, most probably by Johannes Gutenberg, in Straßburg and Mainz from about 1440-54. A page of text was set, letter by letter into lines, and the lines assembled to make up a full page, ready for inking and printing. What the reader sees is the very tip of the iceberg, the inked letter on the printed page. What the reader does not see is the rest of the piece of type, its body. As Harry Carter stated ‘Type is a 3- dimensional thing’…1. The type body dictates the size of the letters and the space around and between the letters. It also has to be tall enough to handle when setting and distributing the letters for the text. What did earliest type look like? Fig 2. A modern type letter The first clues came in 1868 when two collections of (21 and 212) type letters were discovered in Lyons, in the bed of the river Saône, that have been dated to the end of the fifteenth century, or the beginning of the sixteenth.These were described by Maurice Audin in 1954 in an article in the Gutenberg Jahrbuch and in a separate publication in 1955, where he showed a variety of type letters and spacing of different heights, widths, some with flat feet and some with sloping, some with a nick in the side, some with a hole drilled through.2 A further piece of fifteenth-century type was discovered during an archaeological dig in Basel in 1995, and mentioned by Peter F Tschudin.3 Tschudin states that the letter is 1 Harry Carter, A view of early typography up to about 1600 (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1967) p.

  • 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.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Published Occasionally by the Friends of the Bancroft Library University of California, Berkeley, California 94720
    PUBLISHED OCCASIONALLY BY THE FRIENDS OF THE BANCROFT LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA 94720 No.73 September 1979 Dante Gabriel Rossetti's Illustrated Sonnet With funds provided by The Friends of The Bancroft Library and by the Chancellor's Op­ portunity Fund, The Bancroft Library was recently able to acquire a collection of the Rossetti family which, in addition to important books and manuscripts, includes a rare, India paper proof copy of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's illustration for his own "Sonnet on the Sonnet." The development and subsequent history of this design is interesting and rela­ tively well-documented, since the design is of considerable importance among the last works produced before his death. Probably in March, and certainly by early April 1880, Dante Gabriel and Christina Rossetti had determined to present to their mother a personalized copy of Main's Treasury of English Sonnets to celebrate her eightieth birthday on April 27th. Although this volume disappeared from sight in the 1890's, we know that it contained a manu­ script sonnet by Christina which was never published, and that Gabriel's illustrated manuscript, "Sonnet on the Sonnet," stood as a frontispiece. That the project had been under discussion for some time is evident from a letter dated April 2d from Christina [1] to her brother in which she says: "I still According to William Michael Rossetti, Rossetti." On page 259 of his book Sharp from Pre-Raphaelite days.

Disregarding the magniloquent tone of Wenssler’s comment and without downplaying the achievements of printers in other incunabula printing towns, Basel nonetheless has a lot to show for itself with some of the most exciting German and Latin texts of the late 15th century and the early 16th century having been printed in the city on the Rhine. This exhibition traces the history of printing in Basel from the beginnings of printing in the city around 1470, through 1501 when the city joined the Swiss Confederacy, to the end of the 1520s, when Basel went through the Protestant Reformation. The 15th and 16th century were an especially exciting period in the city’s history with many epoch-defining events taking place in Basel.

  • Incunabula Indexes
    Incunabula indexes Hans H. Wellisch Examination of nearly a thousand books printed before 1500 has revealed indexes, some printed, some manuscript, in 83 of them, enabling some conclusions to be made on late medieval indexing policy and practice. The likelihood of indexing in particular subject areas; whether the index {or registrum or tabula) is explained; and the structure of the indexes, are among topics covered. The vagaries of primitive alphabetization are outlined, and an attempt is made to assess quality. Some of the indexers of these indexes are known by name. There is much worthy of study in medieval indexes, which are not merely of antiquarian interest. A list of the examined items is given. The limitation of the incunabula period to the first 1973; Rabnett 1982) or on a special subject (Wellisch fifty years or so of printing with an arbitrary cutoff 1978). date at 1500 is in many respects unfortunate, as has The present study is based on the personal inspec been stated by a noted historian of printing: This date tion of four fairly large and variegated collections of cuts right across the most fertile period of the new art, incunabula, namely 330 in the Folger Shakespeare halving the lives of some of its greatest practitioners'.

  • An Incipitarium of Funeral Orations and a Smattering of Other Panegyrical Literature from the Italian Renaissance (Ca
    An Incipitarium of Funeral Orations and a Smattering of Other Panegyrical Literature from the Italian Renaissance (ca. 1350-1550) BY JOHN M. MCMANAMON, S.J. CONTENTS 1. Orations with Incipits 2. Orations needing an Incipit 1 Introduction The Incipitarium below primarily derives from a reading of Paul Oskar Kristeller’s Iter Italicum for manuscripts and the various printed catalogues for incunabula and early printed editions. I began collecting this data years ago for a book on Italian Renaissance funeral oratory, and I wish to use the internet to share the data with scholars and all interested persons, especially those who may be considering critical editions of a given oration. Years ago, in a review of my Funeral Oratory, Dr. Hermann Goldbrunner suggested that its appendix would have been more valuable, had I supplied the incipits for the orations. He was quite justified in that observation, and I would like now to supply the incipits that I have determined and the manuscripts that conserve each oration. My hope is that the posting of this list will encourage other scholars to contribute relevant data. If any scholar would like to send me information, I will update the listing regularly and acknowledge all contributions therein. I have focused my energies on determining the incipit of each oration and the manuscripts conserving the oration. Other data are supplied less systematically (dates of birth and death for author and subject, bibliography on an oration). For example, given the organization of Kristeller’s massive catalogue by library and fondo, I have not included the Iter references because they are easily located in the printed or CD editions of his work.
