First published in 1622, Jeremias Drexel's 'Zodiacus christianus' (or 'Christian Zodiac') was a remarkable work of religious iconography and spiritual self-help. Raised a Lutheran but converting to Catholicism in his youth, Drexel (1581-1638) was well placed to publish a book that appealed to Protestants as well as Catholics, his 'Zodiac' appearing in multiple reprints, re-editions and translations across Europe during his lifetime and posthumously across the rest of the seventeenth century in an astonishing arc of popularity. The orbit of his readers' catchment was geographically - and denominationally - wide to a conspicuous degree. Drexel was among the most-read authors of that century, a genuine luminary in the culture of the German Baroque, and arguably the most published writer of the period. Offering the first modern translation into English since the early seventeenth century, this critical edition re-acquaints Anglophone audiences with a sample of the spiritual and philosophical writings of a figure whose significant publication record made him a bestseller during his lifetime and for many decades afterwards. As well as addressing issues of spiritual iconography with relation to 'signs of predestination', the book also has much to say about authorship, publishing and the dissemination of ideas. Including a scholarly introduction, full footnotes and an up-to-date bibliography, this new edition does much to help reveal these themes within the complex interconnections between religion, mysticism, iconography and scholarship in early modern Europe.

The emblem was big business in early-modern Europe, used extensively not only in printed books and broadsheets, but also to decorate pottery, metalware, furniture, glass and windows and numerous other domestic, devotional and political objects. At its most basic level simply a combination of symbolic visual image and texts, an emblem is a hybrid composed of words and picture. However, as this book demonstrates, understanding the precise and often multiple meaning, intention and message emblems conveyed can prove a remarkably slippery process. In this book, Peter Daly draws upon many years’ research to reflect upon the recent upsurge in scholarly interest in, and rediscovery of, emblems following years of relative neglect. Beginning by considering some of the seldom asked, but important, questions that the study of emblems raises, including the importance of the emblem, the truth value of emblems, and the transmission of knowledge through emblems, the book then moves on to investigate more closely-focussed aspects such as the role of mnemonics, mottoes and visual rhetoric. The volume concludes with a review of some perhaps inadequately considered issues such as the role of Jesuits (who had a role in the publication of about a quarter of all known emblem books), and questions such as how these hybrid constructs were actually read and interpreted. Drawing upon a database containing records of 6,514 books of emblems and imprese, this study suggests new ways for scholars to approach important questions that have not yet been satisfactorily broached in the standard works on emblems.

Jeremias Drexels SJ ›Iulianus Apostata Tragoedia‹ (1608) erzählt vom Aufstieg und Fall des römischen Kaisers Julian, der für seinen Abfall vom Christentum bereits zeitgenössisch als ›Apostata‹ (›Abtrünniger‹) geschmäht wurde. Während des Renaissance-Humanismus gelangte man jedoch zu einem differenzierteren, teils positiveren Urteil, das v.a. von Julians herausragender Bildung geprägt war. Drexels ›Iulianus‹ setzt sich entsprechend mit der Frage auseinander, wie weit gelehrter Forscherdrang aus christlicher Sicht gehen darf und welche Folgen sich aus einer Grenzüberschreitung ergeben können. Während Julian zu Beginn über seine vom lipsianischen Neustoizismus geprägten intellektuellen Ambitionen noch den Christengott stellt, lehnt er – von eitler Ruhmsucht angestachelt – dies später ab. Er leugnet Gott, verfolgt dessen Anhänger und fällt am Ende der ewigen Verdammnis anheim. Somit wird im ›Iulianus‹ ferner nicht nur die Vereinbarkeit von Christentum und Neustoizismus diskutiert, sondern auch die generelle Absage an letzteren, wie sie sich in Jakob Bidermanns ›Cenodoxus‹ findet, ausdifferenziert. Dieses Buch liefert erstmalig eine Edition des Dramentextes mit Übersetzung sowie einen Kommentar und eine einleitende Analyse des Stücks.

The history of newspaper advertising began in the seventeenth-century Low Countries. The newspaper publishers of the Dutch Republic were the first to embrace advertisements, decades before their peers in other news markets in Europe. In this survey, Arthur der Weduwen and Andrew Pettegree have brought together the first 6,000 advertisements placed in Dutch and Flemish newspapers between 1620 and 1675. Provided here in an English translation, and accompanied by seven indices, this work provides for the first time a complete overview of the development of newspaper advertising and its impact on the Dutch book trade, economy and society. In these evocative announcements, ranging from advertisement for library auctions, the publication of new books, pamphlets and maps to notices of crime, postal schedules or missing pets, the seventeenth century is brought to life. This survey offers a unique perspective on daily life, personal relationships and societal change in the Dutch Golden Age.
