Although interest in this broad field of research has increased in the past decades, many varieties of title pages, many printers and books remain as yet unstudied. The fifteen essays collected in this volume tackle this field from a great variety of academic approaches asking how the images can be interpreted, how the texts and contexts shape their interpretation and how they in turn shape the understanding of the text. 410 0$aIntersections (Boston, Mass.) ;$vVolume 76. 606 $aBooks$zEurope$xHistory 615 0$aBooks$xHistory. 676 $a002.094 702 $aBertram$b Gitta 702 $aBu?ttner$b Nils 702 $aZittel$b Claus 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824428503321 996 $aGateways to the book$93992217 997 $aUNINA
