Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Mr Sparrow traces the development of the inscription as a literary form in Renaissance and post-Renaissance Europe. He defines the 'literary' inscription as 'a text composed with a view to its being presented in lines of different lengths, the lineation contributing to or enhancing the meaning, so that someone who does not see it, actually or in the mind's eye, but only hears it read aloud, misses something of the intended effect'. Mr Sparrow attributes the Renaissance concern with the visual presentation of words to the profound interest in epigraphy aroused by the rediscovery of classical inscriptions. This interest was felt mainly by scholars and writers, but it extended to architects, painters, sculptors and designers of monuments - all of whom incorporated inscriptions in their work.

Zustand: Very Good. xvi, 152, 63 b/w illus. . HB. 4to, orig cloth. Vg in d/w (slightly soiled, in removable protective sleeve). Inscribed by the author to Stehen & Gillian Clark. Edith Gillian Clark, professor emerita of Ancient History at the University of Bristol, Stephen Richard Lyster Clark (1945-) is professor emeritus of Philosophy at the University of Liverpool. An influential study based on the 1964 Sandars Lectures, presented at Cambridge University in which Sparrow explores the role of inscriptions as both text and visual form. Ranging from classical antiquity to the Renaissance, he examined how words function as integral elements of design within books, paintings, and monuments. A pioneering work in the study of text-image relationships, and an important contribution to bibliography and visual culture.
