Albrecht Durer (1471-1528) was hailed in his lifetime as a founder
of the Northern Renaissance, and his work revolutionized the art of
printmaking. Durer was also the first artist outside Italy to leave
behind a large body of writing. Contemporaries and succeeding
generations added their accounts of him to this documentary legacy.
Jeffrey Ashcroft's new book provides the first English translation
of the whole corpus of Durer's writings; the legal, financial, and
administrative documentation of his life and work; and what others
wrote about him during his life and in the following century.
Translations of primary documents are accompanied by extensive
commentary, providing Anglophone scholars access to German-language
research. This unique combination of documentary evidence, current
research, and exhaustive bibliography will doubtless become a
definitive source for students and scholars of Durer and his work,
as well as for historians of early modern culture, language, and
literature.
