Arthurian Literature X
D. S. Brewer Cambridge first edition 1990. Cloth 8vo. ii 160 2 pp. From the publisher's description: "The tenth volume of Arthurian Literature continues some of the themes of earlier issues as well as exploring unfamiliar and controversial ground. The second part of Christine Poulson's survey of the Arthurian legend in 19th-century art is an analysis by subject of the works catalogued by artist in Arthurian Literature IX. A. H. W. Smith provides a substantial update to Mary Wildman's bibliography of modern Arthurian literature which appeared in Arthurian Literature II adding not only recent works but also many items missing from the earlier list. Mr Smith also contributes an article on Ponticus Virumnius and the text of Gildas one of the more intriguing mysteries of Arthurian text history and sets out Virumnius' claim to have seen a poem by Gildas which has since disappeared. Armel Diverres writes on the origins of Chretien de Troyes' Conte del Graal; he argues that we should seek the poet's inspiration in the crusading activities of Philip of Flanders supporting his case with a careful examination of many otherwise difficult passages in the poem.

Arthurian Literature VIII
D. S. Brewer Cambridge first edition 1989. Cloth 8vo. 2 206 pp. From the publisher's description: ". This eighth volume of Arthurian Literature contains four articles. Elizabeth Archibald addresses the reasons for the insertion of the story of Mordred's incestuous birth into many versions of the Arthurian legend including Malory's from the early 13th century on and follows its development from the Vulgate Cycle to later Arthurian narratives. The use of irony to point up aspects of the Lancelot-Guinevere relationship in the prologue to Le Chavalier de la Charrete is explored by Jan Janssens. The early 13th-century Romance of Fergus is introduced and translated by D.D.R. Owen who finds it of special interest not just because of its uniquely Scottish setting but also because its use of parody foreshadows later medieval comedy; Scottish concerns also figure in Edward Donald Kennedy's discussion of the 15th-century chronicler John Hardyng's use of the story of Galahad's grail quest and the changes he made." Contents: "Arthur and Mordred: Variations on an Incest Theme" by Elizabeth Archibald; "Un "Fin' Amant" et l'Ironie Romanesque: Lancelot et la Chanson de Change" by Jan Janssens; "The Romance of Fergus: Introduction and Translation" by D.D.R. Owen; "John Hardyng and the Holy Grail" by Edward Donald Kennedy. As New in dustwrapper. D. S. Brewer, Cambridge, first edition, 1989 hardcover

Arthurian Literature IX
D. S. Brewer Cambridge first edition 1989. Cloth 8vo. 2 142 3 pp. From the blurb: "This collection of new essays on Arthurian themes contains one on Layamon two on Chrétien and one on Victorian art. They are as follows: Oliver Goulden 'Erec et Enide': The Central Section. The opening and closing sections of Erec et Enide have always attracted critical attention: Dr Goulden argues that the central section often neglected is crucial to our understanding of the poem. Claude Luttrell Arthurian Hunt with a White Bratchet. The theme of the hunt with a magical hound is found from the Mabinogion to Malory and this essay charts its gradual change from the supernatural. W.R.J. Barron and Françoise Le Saux Aspects of Layamon's Narrative Art. Layamon's Arthurian epic has been regarded as little more than a lively translation of Wace; here his different approach to narrative is examined and shown to be an original aspect of his work. Christine Poulson Arthurian Legend in Fine and Applied Art of the 19th and early 20th Centuries: A Catalogue of Artists'. Following the bibliographies of modern Arthurian writing in earlier volumes Dr Poulson presents a catalogue of visual materials. As New in dustwrapper. D. S.

French Letterpress Printing : A List of French Printing Manuals and Others Sic Texts in French Bearing on the Technique of Letterpress Printing 1567-1900
Oxford Bibliographical Society Oxford first edition 1969. Printed wrappers 8vo 25 cm. ix 39 pp. From the preface: "The immediate aim of this Checklist is to enumerate printing manuals and other major texts up to 1900 which describe in French the process of letterpress printing and thus to forward the study of both the history of printing and the transmission of manuscript texts into printed form. Compositors' guides and even grammatical works compiled specifically for compositors have therefore been included but works describing illustrative processes or strictly relating to the design and production of type as well as lists of official regulations governing printing and vocabularies of printers' slang have been excluded. Neither has any attempt been made to cover the extensive literature on the history of printing itself. Because of the paucity of early material the terms of reference have been interpreted more elastically up to 1800 and passages in books and articles in encyclopaedias before that date have been described. After 1800 only separate works have been given; Appendix A lists the major periodicals of printing interest in the 19th century. Very Good.

Anecdotes Typographiques : Ou l'on voit la Description des Coutumes Moeurs et usages Singuliers des Compagnons Imprimeurs by Nicolas Contat dit Le Brun 1762. La Misere des Apprentis Imprimeurs by Dufresne 1710
Oxford Bibliographical Society Oxford first edition 1980. Cloth-backed boards 8vo 24 cm. viii 163 pp. 5 plates many line ills. From a contemporary review: "There is very much more to this volume than a reproduction in modern French of Nicolas Contat's manuscript Anecdotes Typographiques and the burlesque poem on the wretched experience of an idealistic young printing apprentice by Defresne. Each work is provided with an introduction that for Contat's work extending to over twenty pages there are several plates copious notes and three important appendixes. The first reproduces in two-dozen pages of line blocks poems addressed by printers to their master or his family most often on the occasion of a marriage but sometimes because of an honour bestowed on the master. Bibliographical details and a short note are provided for each of the seventeen examples
All in all a most valuable book especially read in conjunction with other such accounts and combining in a most commendable manner scholarship and delight. Top edge spotted boards a little bumped otherwise Very Good. Oxford Bibliographical Society, Oxford, first edition, 1980 hardcover

French Letterpress Printing : A List of French Printing Manuals and Others Sic Texts in French Bearing on the Technique of Letterpress Printing 1567-1900
Oxford Bibliographical Society Oxford first edition 1969. Printed wrappers 8vo 25 cm. ix 39 pp. From the preface: "The immediate aim of this Checklist is to enumerate printing manuals and other major texts up to 1900 which describe in French the process of letterpress printing and thus to forward the study of both the history of printing and the transmission of manuscript texts into printed form. Compositors' guides and even grammatical works compiled specifically for compositors have therefore been included but works describing illustrative processes or strictly relating to the design and production of type as well as lists of official regulations governing printing and vocabularies of printers' slang have been excluded. Neither has any attempt been made to cover the extensive literature on the history of printing itself. Because of the paucity of early material the terms of reference have been interpreted more elastically up to 1800 and passages in books and articles in encyclopaedias before that date have been described. After 1800 only separate works have been given; Appendix A lists the major periodicals of printing interest in the 19th century. Good.

Arks for Learning : A Short History of Oxford Library Buildings
Oxford Bibliographical Society Oxford first edition 1995. Illustrated laminated wrappers 4to 26 cm. xiii 176 pp 71 ills some in colour. From the introduction: "The aim of the present publication is to document how Oxford's library collections have been housed over the ages and to illustrate this from the many surviving features which can still be seen in various buildings today. To understand how study and storage systems have evolved will assist a comprehension of a rich but complex information resource encourage a better appreciation of this great heritage and allow the very considerable problems which its conservation raises to be seen in their historical context. The long timespan of Oxford's libraries like that of its other buildings and its gardens presents a living museum where those fortunate enough to frequent these places even for a short time can see and understand something of the way in which over the years forces intellectual artistic technical and financial have interacted to mould the setting workplaces and learned materials of a great university. Very Good. Oxford Bibliographical Society, Oxford, first edition, 1995 unknown
