Notes | 1 pair of clasps. Macchi states; Hunting scene roll and Evangelist tool not found in I. Schunke's, Die Schwenke-Sammlung and E. Kyriss's, Verzierte gothische Einbände. BL C.19.f.13. among Italian bindings also shows a hunting scene. This scene was often tooled on German bindings, especially southern ones, often covering liturgical books. An allegory was built up in Germany around Christian efforts to convert sinners. This religious pursuit after the unrighteous is likened to the worldly sport of hunting hares, kids, wild boars and stags: these animals are personified in this metaphorical conception by identifying the hares with the incontinent, the kids with the proud, the wild boars with the rich, and the stags with the worldly-wise. Continuing the allegory, these personified sinners are struck with the arrows of good example in an endeavour to convert them from their evil ways and are chased by the dogs of preachers's voices in order to frighten them. Typical of this century, the upper cover gothic iscription (E. Diehl, Bookbinding, p. 141). | |||
