Abstract
This is Dicke's dissertation done under Klaus Grubmüller in Münster. It deals most specifically with Steinhöwel as translator and with his book as parent and grandparent of so many editions. The perhaps surprising second part of this (x+) 564-page work deals with fascinating questions of the book market of Steinhöwel's time. Appendices deal with the children and grandchildren of Steinhöwel's book, with the owners of the book, and a stemma of this tradition. The thirteen illustrations, listed on 501-2, are photographs of title-pages and other pages from Steinhöwel's and others' editions. Especially helpful may be the first part of the Literaturverzeichnis on 503-507. It gives the present resources for the early works Dicke treats here. Oh, will I ever have a chance to make my way carefully through this book? Since I have returned to Steinhöwel so often and enjoyed his book so much, I would love the chance! I would have loved to discuss this work with Pack Carnes.
