Strasbourg 2009. 1 volume/1. -- Tome 3 seul -- . Reliure éditeur cartonnée illustrée . Format in-4°( 34,5 x 24,5 cm ). ------- 384 pages . ********************** '' De la fin du XVe siècle jusqu'au temps de la Réforme, Strasbourg est un important centre de production de bois gravés destinés à l'illustration des livres. Durant cette période, mille éditions illustrées et dix mille bois gravés sortent de la dizaine d'ateliers actifs à Strasbourg. La profusion, la cohérence et la qualité de ces illustrations autorisent à parler d'une école strasbourgeoise de gravure. Le plus prolifique des ateliers strasbourgeois est celui de Jean Grüninger. Le présent volume est consacré à sa production des années 1507-1512. Elle se caractérise par le perfectionnement de la technique de combinaison des bois, qui permet de former des images par juxtaposition de plusieurs bois gravés. Elle est notamment utilisée dans le Décaméron de Boccace ou dans les Vies des Pères de l'Église, présentés dans cet ouvrage. Des gravures en pleine page illustrent des épisodes de la Guerre des Gaules ou de la Passion de Geiler. D'autres servent à illustrer des aspects de la vie quotidienne (économie domestique, distillation, cure thermale, traités pédagogiques) à une époque où l'éducation est au cur des discours humanistes et où s'impriment les premiers livres en langue vulgaire. Après un premier volume consacré à la production de Jean Grüninger des années 1501-1506 et un deuxième consacré à la production de sept autres imprimeurs actifs à la même époque, la Bibliothèque nationale et universitaire de Strasbourg, avec le concours de nombreux partenaires, poursuit la publication des gravures d'illustration parues en Alsace au XVIe siècle. Ce troisième volume, Jean Grüninger, 1507-1512, regroupe 565 gravures, accompagnées d'une étude sur les livres recensés et d'un index développé en français et en allemand.

n the Service of Scholarship is a history of one of the leading printing firms of the twentieth century. It is also a character study and biography of Harold Hugo (1910-1985), whose career at Meriden Gravure began at the age of fourteen and continued until his retirement as president in 1975. During his tenure, Hugo brought the company to standards of excellence that earned worldwide recognition for art reproduction of the highest quality. The distinguished graphic designer and educator Alvin Eisenmann said of Harold in 1978, "there has never been anyone who held the position that Harold does in American scholarly printing." This book records the practices that were employed to advance illustration printing during the era of film-based printing technology, from collotype and letterpress to offset lithography. Many of the groundbreaking procedures that Hugo pioneered were subsequently made obsolete by digital technology, but his refusal to compromise on quality and his attention to detail stand as a model in any age. The author was associated with Meriden Gravure for thirty years and regarded Harold Hugo as his mentor. He records a life richly lived, with deep and abiding friendships for the talented figures in the scholarly community with whom Meriden was so deeply engaged. He offers many anecdotes and insights reflecting Hugo's leadership of the company. These accounts are supplemented by material from interviews conducted during Harold Hugo's lifetime and by contributions from the Hugo family and various individuals and institutions. This publication is the first full account of the hundred-year history of the company and of the man who guided it to, and during, the period of its greatest success. As such, it fills a significant gap in the history of printing and of scholarly publishing during the twentieth century. The book, with design and typography by Scott Vile, is richly illustrated with 112 pictures, many in full color.
