"Kurt Weitzmann joined Princeton University's Department of Art and Archaeology in 1935 and spent the remainder of his scholarly caree…r there and at the Institute for Advanced Study, where he was a permanent member of the School of Historical Studies. In 1938, he began his long association with Dumbarton Oaks, Harvard University's research center for Byzantine studies, where he presented the paper 'Principals of Byzantine Book Illumination' even before the center was fully established. Always interested in the relationship between text and images, Weitzmann's first major project at Princeton was preparing a corpus of illustrated manuscripts of the Septuagint, in collaboration with his Princeton colleagues Charles Rufus Morey and Albert M. Friend, Jr. His magnum opus in this series, The Byzantine Octateuchs, coauthored with Massimo Bernabo, was published posthumously in 1999. Among his other influential books is Illustrations in Roll and Codex, a distillation of his principles of manuscript interpretation, which appeared in 1947 and was later revised and reissued in 1970." - Princeton University This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.

Second printing with Addenda: quarto; hardcover, with gilt upper board and spine titling; 261pp., with 56 monochrome plates. Minor wear; spotting to text block edges. Dustwrapper missing small segments on spine panel extremities and upper rear edge; some rubbing and a few marks to the spine panel; now backed by archival-quality…whoite paper and professionally protected by superior non-adhesive polypropylene film. Very good to near fine. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Kurt Weitzmann's book presents a fresh approach to the whole complex of early book illumination. Therefore, the importance of his study cannot be too strongly emphasized. Future research is bound to benefit greatly from it for a variety of reasons. To begin with, Weitzmann is the first to discuss in a systematic and comprehensive manner 'the problem of how miniature and text are related to each other in principle'. By solving essential questions or suggesting possible solutions for them, he opens new vistas to the student of early book illumination. He formulates new terms, which in the precision of their meaning should prove very fruitful tools for an analysis of illustration methods. He also revitalizes ideas of great nineteenth century scholars by carefully scrutinizing their theories.

This is Studies in Manuscript illumination #2. "The comparison of secular as well as biblical miniature cycles with their underlying texts posed the problem of how miniature and text are related to…each other in principle. The present study is an atempt to deal with this problem in a systematic manner, so that the results may not ony consititue a kind of prolegomenon to the history of the Septuagint illustration, but also an outline of the method which can be applied to similar iconographic studies in the field of manuscript illumination." 219 pages plus plates; 9 x 12 ".
