  • 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.

  • A Book Lover's Journey: Literary Archaeology and Bibliophilia in Tim
    Verbeia Número 1 ISSN 2444-1333 Leonor María Martínez Serrano A Book Lover’s Journey: Literary Archaeology and Bibliophilia in Tim Bowling’s In the Suicide’s Library Leonor María Martínez Serrano Universidad de Córdoba [email protected] Resumen Nativo de la costa occidental de Canadá, Tim Bowling es uno de los autores canadienses más aclamados. Su obra In the Suicide’s Library. A Book Lover’s Journey (2010) explora cómo un solo objeto —un ejemplar gastado ya por el tiempo de Ideas of Order de Wallace Stevens que se encuentra en una biblioteca universitaria— es capaz de hacer el pasado visible y tangible en su pura materialidad. En la solapa delantera del libro de Stevens, Bowling descubre la elegante firma de su anterior dueño, Weldon Kees, un oscuro poeta norteamericano que puso fin a su vida saltando al vacío desde el Golden Gate Bridge. El hallazgo de este ejemplar autografiado de la obra maestra de Stevens marca el comienzo de una meditación lírica por parte de Bowling sobre los libros como objetos de arte, sobre el suicidio, la relación entre padres e hijas, la historia de la imprenta y la bibliofilia, a la par que lleva a cabo una suerte de arqueología del pasado literario de los Estados Unidos con una gran pericia literaria y poética vehemencia. Palabras clave: Tim Bowling, bibliofilia, narrativa, arqueología del saber, vestigio. Abstract A native of the Canadian West Coast, Tim Bowling is widely acclaimed as one of the best living Canadian authors. His creative work entitled In the Suicide’s Library. A Book Lover’s Journey (2010) explores how a single object —a tattered copy of Wallace Stevens’s Ideas of Order that he finds in a university library— can render the past visible and tangible in its pure materiality.

Material Memory: Willa Cather, “My First Novels [There Were Two]”, and The Colophon: A Book Collector’s Quarterly Introduction Willa Cather’s 1931 essay “My First Novels [There Were Two]” occupies a distinct position in Cather scholarship. Along with essays like “The Novel Démeublé” and “On The Professor’s House ” it is routinely invoked to established a handful of central details about the writer and her emerging career. It is enlisted most often to support the degree to which Cather distanced herself from her first novel Alexander’s Bridge and established her second novel O Pioneers! As a sort of second first novel, the novel in which she first found her voice by writing about the Nebraska prairie and its people.

    FloorPlay: Design and evaluation of a system to motivate physical activity in office workers Daniel Bryan Peter Harrison "Project report submitted in part fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Human-Computer Interaction with Ergonomics) in the Faculty of Brain Sciences, University College London, 2012." NOTE BY THE UNIVERSITY This project report is submitted as an examination paper. No responsibility can be held by London University for the accuracy or completeness of the material therein. Acknowledgements This was a very ambitious MSc project, and as such there are a lot of people I’d like to thank. I’d first like to thank Jon Bird and Paul Marshall, for all of their support and assistance in producing and installing the system, and ultimately getting this report written. They offered great help throughout the project; the project wouldn’t have came together without them. I’d also like to thank all of the other academic and support staff that have taught and helped me over the past twelve months on the Masters’ degree. The Technical Support Group staff, especially Dave Twinsleton, were also a great help with installing various parts of the system, including the wiring for the interactive surface and the wireless network in the stairwell. My friend, Greg Booth, also very kindly took a long day away from home to come to UCL and help me install parts of the system. Fran Allfrey and James Owers kindly allowed me to stay at their home when it was either too late or when I was too exhausted to take the train home.
