Haswell's poem is handset in 12 pt Century Schoolbook and printed in black on Barcham Green Royal Watercolour Society paper.

A very nice broadside with Haswell's evocative poem depicted by Van Vliet's use of nearly 20 papers woven into the sheet with thread. And where Haswell's poem speaks to weaving in the various histories of the fabric in her woven mat about which she writes Van Vliet literally does weave these histories into this broadside with paper from books each identified by Ruth in her bibliography of the work of the Janus Press that span nearly a decade.

Aratus was born in Soli in present day Turkey in about 315 BCE. Educated in Athens he eventually made his way to the Macedonian court where it is believed he wrote the Phaenomena. It describes in verse the constellations their rotation in the night sky throughout the year various other natural signs and their uses as a calendar and weather forecasting tool for farmers and sailors. For Aratus these sky signs from the constellation Ursa Major to the smallest mouse tossing straw with its paws represent a gift from Zeus to guide human endeavor if only we would take notice. The Phaenomena was enormously popular in its time and afterwards. It inspired many translations some with a liberal dose of revisions and additions as well as many commentaries starting in at least the second century BCE. This edition of the Phaenomena features a verse translation from the Greek by Stanley Lombardo and a new commentary for the modern reader by Mark Breen senior meteorologist and director of the planetarium at the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium in St. Johnsbury Vermont. And while it is easy to get caught up in the interesting particulars of the book and its history as well as the particulars of this edition Van Vliet Miller-Brown and their collaborators have created an edition that has reinvigorated this millennia-old navigational and practical treatise. This edition is full of wonder. MacGregor's pulp painted covers are haunting and exquisitely suited for the work. And further the book designed with a mind towards early scholarly works with Aratus's text surrounded by commentary and illustration is a joy to leaf through every page spread is visually engaging from the early section on the constellations to the section on weather that is elevated by Van Vliet's art. After 70 years of bookmaking Van Vliet has not stopped pushing forward in her design and vision. Janus Press and Plowboy Press unknown

rif. 11635Newark VT: Janus Press 2006. Original Wrappers. Fine binding. Quarto. 40 4 pp. pop-up. Limited edition one of 150 numbered copies. Signed by Van Vliet Holden Miller-Brown. Bound by Audrey Holden in pulp-painted covers by Van Vliet and Katie MacGregor. who also created the pulp painting background for the centerpiece pop-up. Text is printed in Victor Hammer's American Uncial with wraparound commentary in Monotype Plantin by Andrew Miller-Brown. All housed in a paste-paper over boards clamshell with birch sides; boldly titled on the spine. A fine copy. A remarkable rendering of the 2nd century Gnostic Gospel. Van Vliet's edition is a wonderful marriage of early and modern printing: the design echoing early printing islands of text within a sea of commentary. Similarly the choice of American Uncial a typeface modeled by Hammer after early letterforms from a century near to the time of this gospel's composition recalls early books. But this is a remarkably modern printing with modern abstracted embellishments where we would expect to find illuminated illustration in an early manuscript. Every page of the scholarly edition is visually engaging-a rare marriage indeed! As if this exceptional design was not enough "the reader" in the words of John A. Buchtel "reaches the center of the book and unexpectedly the pop-up explodes out of the mottled purple and blue pulp painted page spread in the vivid multiple colors of Katie MacGregor's handmade papers. Its abstract design echoes the diagrams elsewhere in the book and its sense of rising expansiveness is reinforced by the radiating silver paper strips woven through the surface of the pulp painting. . . . The pop-up is emblematic perhaps of a sudden realization-an epiphany-as the soul moves 'upward from its bondage to the flesh and the lower world to its liberation in the higher celestial realm.'" p. 48.

Set in an Aldine-style italic type with upright capitals; 92 mm/20 lines with roman capitals for occasional words phrases and 2-line initials. Rare first edition in the original Latin of the collected poetic works of the humanist and neo-Latin poet Janus or Joannes Secundus Jan Everaerts 1511-1536 who "ranks among the foremost poets of the world" as "the only famous 16th-century Dutch poet" Guépin p. 231: "one of the most significant and enduring poets of the Renaissance" and "the outstanding Latin love poet of the northern Renaissance" Price p. 1. Although not quite twenty-five when he died he published numerous poetic works from 1532 to 1536 but left most of his work unpublished at his premature death. Much of his poetry appeared for the first time in the present posthumous edition. Janus is most famous for his "Basia" kisses: 19 lyric love poems influenced by Catullus. Janus's three books of elegies especially the first book comprising 11 love poems to his possibly fictional first love Julia are also masterpieces of neo-Latin poetry.Although revered internationally in his own century and influential throughout the 17th and 18th centuries among his avid readers were Ronsard Fleming Huygens Milton and Goethe Janus's name has been eclipsed in the Netherlands by those of Cats and Vondel in part because they wrote in Dutch.Janus Secundus was born in The Hague. His father was a lawyer at the leading courts of the Low Countries and the family moved to Maastricht when Janus was sixteen. He studied law there and later studied at Bourges and at the University in Louvain. Though a native Dutch speaker and fluent in French Janus had learned Latin with his older brothers at an early age and corresponded with them in Latin.With 3 French verses in a near contemporary hand on the endleavesFurther with a near contemporary donation inscription on the title-page; a 19th-century bookplate on the inside front wrapper and blue ink stamp on the title-page. With the title-page somewhat worn and with stains in its margins plus a water stain in the first 10 leaves and a fainter marginal one some of the last few leaves but otherwise in good condition. The sewing supports have broken at the front hinge and the velum wrapper is somewhat soiled with a small corner of the back wrapper lost.
