Description
Summary:The book ends with multiple indices, an inventory of Pinciano's library, and twenty-four fine-quality, full-page plates, illustrating Pinciano's hand and the bindings of relevant volumes. Juan Signes Codoner surveys Pinciano's books found at other locations, documents Pinciano's legacy to Salamanca's library (and argues for a fixed death date of 1553), discusses the bindings and gatherings of the Salamanca volumes, and provides evidence that the books Pinciano donated had actually been originally procured by the University for his use (105-15). Technical discussions follow: e.g., distinguishing Pinciano's various hands, cases of uncertainty about whether a given citation of an author is direct or indirect, and instances where one may infer ownership of a volume from the way Pinciano alludes to it Codoner Merino lists authors cited (160-63) and discusses Pinciano's remarks on them.
