Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Through a study of printers' colophons, this book conducts a historical inquiry into the earliest days of the printed book, specifically focusing on the self-perception and public presentation of the earliest printers, specifically those in Italy, from the 1460s to circa 1525. The colophon--an inscription on the final pages of a book that details information regarding its creation--was an early form of self-promotion and offered a window into the sensibilities and aspirations of those involved in disseminating knowledge and ideas through the relatively new medium of print. These colophons reveal the pride taken in the new craft of printing, a pride no less strong than that of the scribes responsible for the copying and preservation of texts before the advent of the printing press. As such, this book illustrates the ways in which the earliest printers sought to position themselves not just as craftsmen, but as artists and scholars, and sheds light on the development of the self-conception of the printer as a central figure in the world of learning and culture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
