THIS CD CONTAINS the
complete edition of all the emblem books described by Arthur
Henkel and Albrecht Schöne in their Emblemata. Handbuch zur
Sinnbildkunst des XVI. und XVII. Jahrhunderts. From its
initial appearance, this work has been an indispensable point of
departure for the study of emblematic literature. Unfortunately,
the Handbuch eliminated the prose commentary of the
titles included, texts that are vital for their correct
comprehension.
The complete edition of these books fills this lacuna and
provides a new point of reference. As is the case for other CDs
in Studiolum, the texts are
carefully and completely transcribed, respecting the apperance
and configuration of the original copies. Beyond the possible
linear reading of each book, texts and images are interconnected
in a rich web of relations, parallels, concordances and
annotations, which allows the user to trace any idea, quotation
or symbolic element.
We do not repeat here those books already edited in CDs 1, 3 and
4 of Studiolum (Spanish Emblem
Books, Wither & Rollenhagen, and Alciato). But we do add others
no less important, but missing from the selection of
Henkel-Schöne: those of Boissard (Theatrum vitae humanae,
1596), Bruck (Emblemata moralia e bellica, 1615), Cats (Silenus
Alcibiadis, 1618), Faernus (Centum fabulae, 1600),
and Vaenius, (Emblemata Horatiana, 1607).
