Description du livre Cloth, 8vo, 24 cm, 109 pp, [4] pp of plates. From the blurb: "The date for the introduction of printing into England has been variously fixed between December 1468 and November 1477 and celebrated accordingly. Equally, the identity of the first book to have been printed in England and the location of its printing has been subject to a variety of conflicting theories. In Caxton in Focus Lotte Hellinga outlines the history of Caxton studies over the past three centuries and conveys the fascination of current research methods, which combine the use of modern forensic equipment with painstaking detective work. The results, first revealed in the television programme The Printer's Tale (part of the BBC series Discoveries), indicate that The Canterbury Tales was the book with which Caxton chose to begin his career in England, although the date for the printing of the first folios at Westminster cannot be precisely determined. Thus the author builds up a new and coherent picture of Caxton's intentions when he established England's first printing house at Westminster Abbey." Very Good in Very Good dustwrapper.
