EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases a page from the "Regiment de la Cosa Publica" (Regiment of the Public Thing), a seminal work by the 14th-century Catalan writer Francesc Eiximenis. The text, written in Catalan, is a political treatise that outlines the organization and governance of the public realm, emphasizing the importance of the common good and the role of the community in the administration of justice. The incunabular manuscript, one of the earliest printed books in Europe, was produced in Valencia around 1473. The page displayed here, from the prologue of the work, is adorned with intricate calligraphy and illumination. The text is written in a blackletter script known as textura, a common style during the late Middle Ages. The capital letters, rendered in red, are beautifully executed with flourishes and decorative elements that add visual interest and hierarchy to the text. The alphabet used in this manuscript is ancient, with some letters displaying subtle variations from their modern counterparts. The page also features an initial, an ornate letter or decorative element that marks the beginning of a new section or chapter. In this case, the initial is a large, stylized "B," which is framed by intricate foliage and adorned with a Franciscan monk holding a book and a lily, symbolizing purity and learning. The overall effect is one of grandeur and sophistication, reflecting the importance of the ideas contained within the text and the significance of the written word during the medieval period.
