This edited collection offers in seventeen chapters the latest scholarship on book catalogues in early modern Europe. Contributors discuss the role that these catalogues played in bookselling and book auctions, as well as in guiding the tastes of book collectors and inspiring some of the greatest libraries of the era. Catalogues in the Low Countries, Britain, Germany, France and the Baltic region are studied as important products of the early modern book trade, and as reconstructive tools for the history of the book. These catalogues offer a goldmine of information on the business of books, and they allow scholars to examine questions on the distribution and ownership of books that would otherwise be extremely difficult to pursue. Contributors: Helwi Blom, Pierre Delsaerdt, Arthur der Weduwen, Anna E. de Wilde, Shanti Graheli, Ann-Marie Hansen, Rindert Jagersma, Graeme Kemp, Ian Maclean, Alicia C. Montoya, Andrew Pettegree, Philippe Schmid, Forrest C. Strickland, Jasna Tingle, Marieke van Egeraat, and Elise Watson.

The Philobiblon of Richard De Bury, Volume 1, is a celebrated medieval treatise on the love of books. Written by Richard de Bury, Bishop of Durham and a noted bibliophile of the 14th century, this work extols the virtues of books and learning. De Bury passionately advocates for the acquisition and preservation of manuscripts, reflecting the intellectual fervor of the Middle Ages. This volume offers insights into the author's motivations for collecting books, his views on the importance of knowledge, and his experiences in assembling a vast library. It delves into the practical aspects of managing and caring for books, providing a unique glimpse into the world of medieval libraries and the scholars who cherished them. “The Philobiblon†remains a valuable resource for those interested in the history of books, the development of libraries, and the intellectual climate of the medieval period. Its enduring appeal lies in its eloquent expression of the joy and significance of reading and the pursuit of wisdom.
