Description:
Faber and Faber, London, first edition, 1965. Cloth, 8vo, 22 cm,. 96 pp, ills. From the foreword: "Books on manuscripts ... show wide dissimilarity in use of terms for the same ornament, and often fail to identify a familiar motif in one of its exquisite disguises. The Glossary grew out of the need to find a common language for manuscript ornament, its single purpose being to fix the salient characteristic of a known form through illustration, and to define it in universally acceptable terms. And since, to describe properly the decorated page, not only must ornament be named, but its quality suggested, its innate attitude or posture revealed, and terms found which will place it on the page or within other ornamental features on the page, a vocabulary for these aspects of ornament has been culled, very often from fields quite remote from iconography. Top edge slightly duststained, otherwise Good.

Description:
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, first edition, 1989. Cloth, folio,. xiii,75 pp, 719 ills including 23 colour plates. From the blurb: "In the tradition established by Otto Pacht and J.J.G. Alexander with their catalogues of illuminated manuscripts in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, the present publication presents all the vital information on the miniatures, marginalia and other decorations in the manuscripts of one collection. Thanks to the homogeneous nature of the collection concerned, the Utrecht University Library, this volume also serves as a much-needed study of manuscript illumination in the Northern Netherlands. Of 181 manuscripts here dealt with, 132 are from the area. Approximately half of these are from Utrecht, the most important centre of book production in the region during the late Middle Ages. A uniquely valuable feature of this publication is the large number of illustrations, most in actual size. All miniatures with identifiable subjects are illustrated, along with a…
