- Summary
- This groundbreaking volume includes 554 catalogue entries which provide essential information and concise descriptions of each broadside in the Collection. Featuring scholarly essays by Dvora Bregman, Elisheva Carlebach, Ruth Langer, and Nahum Rakover, all leading academics in their respective fields, whose areas of research have in the past made extensive use of the types of material found in the Valmadonna Collection. These essays provide the reader with a richer contextualization and a fuller understanding of the catalogued materials. Thirty-six highlighted broadsides feature full-color images and more comprehensive narratives, augmented by English translations for the benefit of the lay reader. Additional material includes a numerical conversion chart for the cross-referencing of catalogue numbers with preexisting Valmadonna Collection reference numbers, an index of first lines of poems, and a general index.
