Description

Explore the widespread influence of the emblem in early-modern Europe through this scholarly work by Peter Daly. Emblems were a major part of daily life, appearing in printed books and broadsheets, as well as decorating common items like pottery, metalware, furniture, glass, and windows. They served various roles in domestic, devotional, and political contexts. This book examines the emblem as a hybrid of symbolic visual images and text. While a basic emblem combines words and pictures, Peter Daly demonstrates that interpreting the precise meanings and messages they conveyed can be a complex and slippery process. This study provides deep insight into how these symbolic objects functioned across different aspects of European society during this period.
