Article description

Engraved title and 103 engraved emblemata engravings in text. 11 unnum. leaves, 831 p., 4 leaves. (last 2 blank). 1640 first published `emblematic mirror of princes` by the Spanish author and diplomat Diego de Saavedra-Fajardo (1584-1648). The emblem book, which has been repeatedly reissued and translated many times over the centuries - "In the thematic area of ​​political emblematics, the Fürstenspiegel by the Spanish diplomat Diego de Saavedra Fajardo is by no means the first, but it is probably the most successful work." - contains 101 text-image combinations that illustrate the moral and political demands that are made of an ideal-typical prince from a Christian point of view. This edition also contains Saavedra's foreword, dated `Vienna, 10 July 1640`, addressed to the Spanish prince, to his work, which he claims to have been written at intervals on his diplomatic trips through Germany. (Cf. also Peil. Emblematic mirrors of princes in the 17th and 18th centuries. In: Early Medieval Studies. Vol. 20,55f.) 12°. gest Title page, 11 nn. ll., 831 p., 2 nn. ll., with 104 engraved illustrations.
