In Making the Miscellany Megan Heffernan examines the poetic design of early modern printed books and explores how volumes of compiled poems, which have always existed in practice, responded to media change in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. Heffernan's focus is not only the material organization of printed poetry, but also how those conventions and innovations of arrangement contributed to vernacular poetic craft, the consolidation of ideals of individual authorship, and centuries of literary history.The arrangement of printed compilations contains a largely unstudied and undertheorized archive of poetic form, Heffernan argues. In an evolving system of textual transmission, compilers were experimenting with how to contain individual poems within larger volumes. By paying attention to how they navigated and shaped the exchanges between poems and their organization, she reveals how we can witness the basic power of imaginative writing over the material text.Making the Miscellany is also a study of how this history of textual design has been differently told by the distinct disciplines of bibliography or book history and literary studies, each of which has handled—and obscured—the formal qualities of early modern poetry compilations and the practices that produced them. Revisiting these editorial and critical approaches, this book recovers a moment when compilers, poets, and readers were alert to a poetics of organization that exceeded the limits of the individual poem.

Un libro, amava dire Giorgio Manganelli, non è altro che il supporto della sua copertina. Dev'essere partito da una credenza simile, Marco Belpoliti, nell'ideare e realizzare la rubrica all'interno della "talpa libri - della quale qui raccoglie cento numeri, pubblicati fra il 1998 e il 2003. Pezzi, non a caso sempre corredati da un'illustrazione a colori, che per la prima volta si proponevano di offrire, delle novità librarie di giornata, un'interpretazione in chiave "visiva": a partire, appunto, dall'immagine e dalla grafica di copertina. Questo libro si può leggere in almeno due modi: da un lato come prontuario dell'immaginario grafico dell'editoria italiana in un tempo di trasformazione come il nostro; e in quanto tale, come osserva il grande grafico Italo Lupi nella prefazione, è un formidabile strumento di storia e sociologia live della nostra cultura del libro. Dall'altro, spiega bene Mario Barenghi nella postfazione, si pone a modello di una critica dell'immaginario che sia non solo e soprattutto non tradizionalmente "letteraria" bensì attenta alle pieghe, ai margini e agli sconfinamenti tra retoriche della parola e dell'immagine.

All designers will tell you that the design process is one of perserverance, failure, hard work and eventual triumph. Book cover design is no different. The idea for the book stemmed from attending a talk at St. Bride's Foundation, watching Jon Gray and Jamie Keenan present a carousel of beautiful covers that have never seen the cover of a book as they were rejected (for various reasons) along the way. The proverbial lightbulb went up 'why not publish a book about rejected covers?No, No, No, No, Yes: Book Design Uncovered brings together 25 published book covers and 100 alternatives seen in print for the very first time. Drawing on submissions from book cover designers from across the world, the book is part peek behind the curtain of the book cover design process, part alternative history of book covers.https://www.copyrightbookshop.be/shop/no-no-no-no-yes-book-design-uncovered/

Do you know when the first book was born? Have you ever wondered what are the basic components of a book? And how can we possibly make a book from scratch? Book Design is a publication that answers all these questions. It offers an overview of what a book is, how it is made, and how we can improve it with good design and printing techniques. The first two chapters focus more on historical and theoretical knowledge, while the last two showcase examples of contemporary book designs, including detailed information and interviews with eight graphic designers from all over the world. It is not just a "must-have" book for designers in the field, but a "should-have" for those who want to know more about book design, as well as self-publishers and small presses.
