GERULAITIS, LEONARDAS VYTAUTAS - Printing and Publishing in Fifteenth-Century Venice

Chicago: American Library Association, 1976. First Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 0838901263. "This study is an attempt to evaluate humanism's penetration into social levels below the aristocratic and patrician elite and to ascertain the cultural atmosphere among the bourgeoisie and its guiding lights. I propose to make this evalation by analyzing the reading public's taste as reflected by the incunabula, the books printed before the end of the fifteenth century. I chose venice as the test case because it was the largest center of incunabula production not only in Italy but also in Europe." - Preface. [viii]-xiv, 190 p. Index and extensive bibliography. Footnotes. Former library copy with usual markings. Average wear to original reddish cloth decorated in gilt. Binding intact. No dust jacket. A worthy reference copy of this intriguing study.; 8vo.
