Taccola first conceived a new subject in Renaissance literature: rational descriptions and illustrations of utilitarian structures built by master masons, carpenters, millwrights, and artisans in the service of military lords.<br/>Taccola’s complex and fascinating manuscript is being published fully in facsimile. It was a gift to Johann Albrecht Widmannstetter who studied law (1533-1542) in Siena, probably at the Studio or University where Taccola had been secretary while writing in the building arts. The volume that Taccola entitled “Liber primus leonis” and “Liber secundis draconis” was modified into a “Notebook” when he, in 1435-1438, added many small sketches around each main drawing existing on a folio, and added quires of paper after Book II for additional and later drawings.<br/>This edition includes, in the editors’ introduction, a short biography of Mariano Taccola, a history of his “Notebook”, a description of its sections, an account of Taccola’s contribution to the history of thechnology, and a study of his influencce. Each of Taccola’s several hundred drawings is identified, his Latin texts and notes are all transcribed an then translated into English. In one Appendix, the editors illustrate and interpret eight drawings identified as copies of Taccola’s originals lost from his “Notebook”, and a second Appendix concerns the desings of mills, pile-drivers, and water-supply devices of a Machine Complex that other engineers developed from prototypes in Taccola’s “Notebook”.<br/> Mit der Wiederentdeckung der technischen Handschriften Mariano Taccolas wurde auch die Quelle für die Zeichnungen und Texte in den Abhandlungen und Skizzenbüchern Francesco di Giorgio Martinis entdeckt. Taccola behandelte als erster ein neues Thema in der Renaissanceliteratur: die rationale Beschreibung und Illustration von Zweckbauten. Das Werk, das Taccola ursprünglich als „Liber primus leonis“ und „Liber secundus draconis“ angelegt hatte, bekam nach und nach den Charakter eines Notizbuchs, als den Hauptzeichnungen mehrere kleinere Skizzen hinzugefügt und mehrere lose Blätter mit technischen Zeichnungen beigelegt wurden.<br/>Die Handschrift war ein Geschenk an Johann Albrecht Widmannstetter, der sich einige Jahre in Siena aufhielt. Aus der Sammlung dieses Humanisten gelangte sie anschließend nach München.<br/>Die vorliegende Faksimileausgabe enthält neben einer kurzen Biographie Mariano Taccolas die Geschichte dieses Notizbuchs, eine Beschreibung der einzelnen Abschnitte sowie Taccolas Bedeutung für Wissenschaft und Technik der Renaissance. Jede der mehreren hundert Zeichnungen wird erläutert, Taccolas lateinische Beschreibungen der Maschinen werden in Transkription wiedergegeben und ins Englische übersetzt. Ein Anhang enthält die Zeichnungen zu Mühlen, Pfahlrammen und Entwürfen zu Wasserleitungssystemen, die später nach Taccolas Modellen aus dem „Notebook“ entwickelt wurden.<br/><br/> 03 00 Mariano Taccola was the first Renaissance writer who clearly illustrated and described teohnical devices. With remarkable ingenuity and realistic force, Taccola olarified the complex form of engines in optical unity. His originality of mind and artistic skill also led hirn to formulate devices for “interconnecting drawings and texts. No earlier, illustrated descriptions of teohnical devices are known, and among the later ones few are as suggestive and informative as Taccola's sequence of illustrations.” <br/>He did not claim these specific devices as his inventions, but he evidently impressed his followers by his clear teaching. In fact - Tacwla's notebook gives us the impression that it originated in a world where only rumors were known aJbout the aohievements of ancient technology. That many of these things became clearer in Taccola's time is definitely due to his curiosity, resourcefulness, and persuasion.<br/>This ist the first time that Taccola's fascinating treatise “De ingeneis” can be presented as full facsimile. The text volume contains a short biography of Mariano Taccola, the history of his “Notebook”, a description of its contents as weIl as an article on Taccola's importance for science and technology during the Renaissance.<br/>Each of the 272 facsimile pages is explained in detail. Taccola's Latin description of the machines and devices are transcribed and translated into English.<br/>Drawings of certain technical devices which have been developed after models from Taccola's “Notebook” are included in an appendix.<br/> 01 00 03 02 01 D502 02 800 03 598 07 100298 https://medialibrary.reichert-verlag.de/media/original/9783882261707.jpg Reichert Verlag 01 04 15275 06 4399901869295 23 DE161050927 25 1065107307 Dr. Ludwig Reichert Verlag Inhaberin Ursula Reichert 01 https://reichert-verlag.de 02 https://reichert-verlag.de/9783882261707_mariano_taccola_de_ingeneis-detail/ 03 https://medialibrary.reichert-verlag.de Wiesbaden DE 10 04 15275 06 4399901869295 23 DE161050927 25 1065107307 Dr. Ludwig Reichert Verlag Inhaberin Ursula Reichert Ursula Reichert +496119465911 info@reichert-verlag.de Tauernstraße 11 Wiesbaden 65199 DE 04 01 19840101 11 1984 00 23 DE146124076 Brockhaus Kommissionsgeschäft GmbH 01 https://www.brocom.de 20 02 02 398.00 01 R 7.00 EUR DE 02 02 409.20 01 R 10.00 EUR AT 02 02 597.00 USD US
