Abstract
-
en_US
I have the 1972 Burt Franklin reprint, apparently of this very piece of work. It is here labeled First Fascicule, but I suspect that it is the only fascicle that saw print. This 76-page publication offers painstaking Germanic documentation of the incunabula, including lists by their authors, the cities where they were printed, their printers, sizes, languages, the cities where they are preserved, and even the prices brought by them. Apparently this short work was meant to be an introduction to a lengthy second manual that probably never appeared. Even Keidel himself formulates a big if in the introduction: Should the present Manual some day reach completion, a vast mass of the dry bones of literary history will no doubt have therein been presented (viii). The front cover has separated in this short paperbound work.
