Synopsis:
Digitised facsimiles, with notes and transcription, of the earliest printed texts produced in Scotland In celebration of the anniversary, the Scottish Text Society, in association with the National Library for Scotland, has published a DVD of prints produced by Chepman and Myllar in or close to 1508, containing digitised facsimiles of each of the twenty printed items. Each facsimile is accompanied by a headnote, explaining the print's literary significance and technical features, and a transcription. There is also an introduction by the general editor, Sally Mapstone, which sets the Chepman and Myllar press within the context of early sixteenth-century Scotland and Scottish book history. The edition thus gives readers informative access to Scotland's earliest texts; easily navigable, it will become a vital teaching and research tool.
Review: Superb. [...] A valuable research tool that should be welcomed by scholars and students of Middle Scots and of early-modern print culture. --SPECULUM, October 2009
