This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 1639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'importance de l'emblème (genre multi-média et pan-européen) comme reflet de la culture européenne aux seizième et dix-septième siècles est aujourd'hui de plus en plus reconnue. Bien que le style emblématique se manifeste dans plusieurs arts plastiques (parmi lesquels la peinture, la broderie, l'architecture - permanente ou éphémère - et l'art sépulcral) ce sont les livres qui codifient et concrétisent le mieux la combinaison de mots et d'image qui constitue l'emblème.La contribution française aux livres d'emblèmes fut formatrice et centrale. La bibliographie présente décrit en détail plus de 700 éditions imprimées en France ou en français entre 1534 et 1700. Alciat, fondateur du genre, représente presque un dixième de celles-ci, et plusieurs éditions de son oeuvre sont identifiées ici pour la première fois, de même que plusieurs éditions également inconnues d'autres auteurs de livres d'emblèmes. Chaque notice comporte une reproduction du titre, une collation technique détaillée, une description de la disposition (souvent accompagnée d'une illustration) et une liste d'exemplaires identifiés. Les différentes éditions ont été soigneusement isolées, ainsi qu'à l'intérieur de celles-ci les différents états et émissions. 77 bibliothèques ont été dépouillées et, en plus, d'autres exemplaires sont notés dans environ 300 autres bibliothèques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emblem was big business in early-modern Europe, used extensively not only in printed books and broadsheets, but also to decorate pottery, metalware, furniture, glass and windows and numerous other domestic, devotional and political objects. At its most basic level simply a combination of symbolic visual image and texts, an emblem is a hybrid composed of words and picture. However, as this book demonstrates, understanding the precise and often multiple meaning, intention and message emblems conveyed can prove a remarkably slippery process. In this book, Peter Daly draws upon many years’ research to reflect upon the recent upsurge in scholarly interest in, and rediscovery of, emblems following years of relative neglect. Beginning by considering some of the seldom asked, but important, questions that the study of emblems raises, including the importance of the emblem, the truth value of emblems, and the transmission of knowledge through emblems, the book then moves on to investigate more closely-focussed aspects such as the role of mnemonics, mottoes and visual rhetoric. The volume concludes with a review of some perhaps inadequately considered issues such as the role of Jesuits (who had a role in the publication of about a quarter of all known emblem books), and questions such as how these hybrid constructs were actually read and interpreted. Drawing upon a database containing records of 6,514 books of emblems and imprese, this study suggests new ways for scholars to approach important questions that have not yet been satisfactorily broached in the standard works on emblems.

Book excerpt: Scholars in multiple disciplines now recognize the emblem as a significant expression of the cultural life of the Renaissance and the Baroque, reflecting a panoply of interests ranging from war to love, from religion to philosophy to politics, from the sciences to the occult, from social mores to encyclopedic knowledge, and from serious speculation to entertainment. Following Andrea Alciato's publication of the first emblem book in 1531, the form enjoyed its heyday in the seventeenth-century, appearing in speeches, sermons, and printed texts, but also in wall and ceiling decorations, jewelry, carvings, paintings, and other material expressions. Beyond this early boom, the emblem was again present in eighteenth-century title pages and frontispieces, and experienced twentieth-century manifestations during the ideological battles of both world wars and Quebec's attempt at secession from Canada. The Companion to Emblem Studies introduces the multiple forms that the emblem has taken through nearly five centuries of production, and offers an interdisciplinary and international assessment of the long history of this pervasive symbolic device. use those vernacular languages; on Alciato, the father and prince of emblems; on bibliography and theory; on the Jesuit and Neo Latin emblems, which cut across national groupings; on flags and tournaments; and on emblems in recent material culture, logos, and advertisements. The Companion features 130 illustrations and concludes with a Selective Bibliography for Further Reading, which includes works written in western European languages and expands the volume's usefulness for researchers and students in the field.

This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il s'agit d'une étude originale sur les livres d'emblèmes français du XVIe siècle : Alison Saunders met surtout en valeur l'aspect vécu et quotidien de l'emblème. Elle analyse la conception de celui-ci, et le rôle qu'y jouaient le poète et l'imprimeur. Puis elle s'attache à son utilité sociale : là, elle constate une remarquable diversité : l'emblème français pouvait être une pure création intellectuelle, mais aussi une source d'information, et souvent il inspirait même une leçon morale. Avant tout un objet didactique, il était aussi largement emprunté par l'artisan, revenait en motif dans les broderies et prenait une importance extraordinaire dans les grandes parades, les spectacles et les entrées triomphales.
