内容説明・目次

内容説明

This blockbook is the key to understanding the "religious climate" of the Middle Ages. It is the first and only edition of its kind of the Seculum Humanae Salvationis, among the most significant blockbooks of the fifteenth century. This edition reprints all 58 woodcuts, each with two illustrations, translates into modern English the text of the entire blockbook, and provide detailed explanations of the woodcuts and text. No other edition approaches the magnitude of this achievement, which makes the blockbook accessible to the present-day reader.
