Einblattdrucke des 15. und frühen 16. Jahrhunderts Probleme, Perspektiven, Fallstudien

The compass of the volume extends both to single-leaf broadsides from letter-presses and printed forms produced in the 15th and early 16th centuries. The perspectives on this new textual and pictorial medium presented in the 16 articles range from literary studies, history of book-printing and communication, history and art history to research on incunabula. The result is a rich panoply of insights on single-leaf broadsides as testimonies of change and continuity in social communication during the transition to the modern age.
