About This Item
Introduction and Descriptions by Brian L. Merrill. Illus. xxxviii, 74 pp. Large 8vo, orig. illustrated wrappers. Provo: 1989. This catalogue has become a work of permanent reference. The Introduction contains a very full biographical sketch of Kircher, with much information not readily available. A list of his major works is provided. The balance of the catalogue is devoted to careful descriptions of B.Y.U.'s collection of Kircher -- 31 items in all -- with title-page transcriptions, pagination collations, and invaluable annotations regarding the importance of each work, provenance, binding, and references. Now out-of-print and very difficult to find.
