Primavera y floresta de estampas germanas y españolas de las Epístolas y Evangelios hasta 1550. Parte I
2025
El trabajo se centra en estampas alemanas antecedentes y contemporáneas de las aparecidas en volúmenes españoles de Epístolas y evangelios. En el luengo camino, se consideran relaciones con volúmenes germanos y coetáneos del mismo subgénero; pero también de otro tan hermanado temática y gráficamente como el denominado Plenarium. El dilatado recorrido por publicaciones e impresores germanos y españoles del periodo 1473-1550 se realiza a partir de tres estampas modélicas, las ilustraciones de los tres primeros Domingos de Adviento, ya que suelen ser las primeras de estos volúmenes. El escrutinio del florecimiento, progreso y esplendor de las estampas en los textos germanos aporta una sencilla visión general de relevantes impresores y los nombres de algunos diseñadores y cortadores de tacos y planchas de madera como Hans Schäufelein y Urs Graf.

XVII-wieczny „ogród zdrowia”. Parnassus medicinalis illustratus w tradycji ilustrowanych kompendiów farmaceutycznych
by
Czapla, Julia
in
Woodcuts
2016
The article analyses a compendium Parnassus medicinalis illustratus published in the years 1662–1663. Prepared by Johann Joachim Becher, the work was a richly illustrated “garden of health” – a collection of pieces of information on healing properties of plants, animals and minerals. An impulse to its publication was a purchase of woodcut blocks by a publisher, Johann Görlin the Elder. The blocks were made for Conrad Gesner and first printed in Pietro Andrea Mattioli’s herbarium published by Joachim Camerarius the Younger in 1586. The prints were considered to have been well done and to be worth using again. They were supplemented with the prints patterned on the 16th-century treatises and prepared in Ulm. The history of the Parnassus woodcuts contributes into the research on the mechanisms of using old natural illustration. It is a rare example of a situation when a publisher came up with an initiative to publish woodcut blocks purchased from Camerarius’s collection and supplemented them with new but old-like illustrations he commissioned and with a text inspired by the medival in form “gardens of health” .

Sulla Propaladia mutila conservata a Napoli
2022
This article offers for the first time a comprehensive description of a 16th-century edition of Propaladia by Torres Naharro, which is extremely rare and has only one surviving copy (unfortunately imperfect) held in the Biblioteca Nazionale of Naples. Although its colophon is missing, the article reconstructs the printing details of the edition by examining its format, watermark, woodcut frame of the title page, and some of the woodcut initials.

Not fit for purpose: UK commissioning process under fire

2025
[...]they both argue, indies are putting time, energy and resources into developing thousands of hours of TV that will ultimately never get made, with no concept of how many opportunities the commissioners they’re pitching to actually have to offer. ” “There’s nojeopardy for abroadcasterto declaresomethingmission-criticaland then say theideas aren’t goodenough - but forindies, it could bemake or break” Patrick Holland,Banijay Holland points to frustration at the lower end of the scale too, with one recent PSB issuing a regional tender, only to declare, after bids came in, that the pot of money would instead go to an existing commission that would move to the region. For Zinc Media chief executive Mark Browning, the tender model is one learning that TV should take from more transparent sectors, such as professional services and banking. [...]we’re building a strong online community who are giving us ideas about subject matter and casting.”

The Syphilitic —Dürer’s Woodcut, a Pandemic Unveiled
2025
In an age when science, astrology, and theology were inseparably intertwined, such a cosmological explanation sought to make sense of a disease perceived as either divine punishment or an apocalyptic omen. [...]Dürer’s composition serves not merely as a depiction of physical suffering but as a complex meditation on fate, human frailty, and the blurred boundaries between medical and metaphysical knowledge. Dürer’s woodcut captures the grotesque morphology and rapid dissemination of a novel pathogen whose biologic behavior defied both Galenic medicine and moral explanation (the interpretation of disease as both a natural imbalance of the bodily humors, according to Galenic medical theory, and as a consequence of moral or sinful behavior). Recent epidemiologic reports from the World Health Organization show a rising global incidence of syphilis and other sexually transmitted infections, particularly among young adults and marginalized populations.
