Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, composed in the 16th century, provides a comprehensive illustrated encyclopedia of emblematic images and their meanings. Emblems were symbolic images used in literature, art, and daily life to convey complex ideas or moral lessons. Within this volume, there are around 200 woodcuts with accompanying Latin mottoes and explanatory text. The author, a polymath with expertise in history, art, literature, and theology, believed that emblems were a universal language that could express concepts that defy verbal descriptions. This book, often used as a reference for artists, writers, and scholars, offers a fascinating glimpse into the symbolic language of the Renaissance period. Through its diverse range of emblems, the book illuminates themes such as morality, virtue, love, death, and the pursuit of knowledge, making it a valuable resource for understanding the cultural and intellectual landscape of the time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243899203_0
