Karl-Ludwig Selig’s
Studies on Alciato in Spain
, published in 1990, comes in a new edition. This Re-edition has been furnished with the entire emblems (
inscriptio
,
pictura
and
subscriptio
) cited by the author. It is unquestionable that international research on emblems and emblem theory has progressed tremendously since 1990. It has inspired a great many books and articles dealing with particular emblems or emblem books as well as general observations on emblem theory. Karl-Ludwig Selig’s
Studies on Alciato in Spain
can be regarded as one of the foundation stones of such activities. His work, as a contribution to the subject from a historically remote, but clear-sighted standpoint, still deserves our full attention.
Karl-Ludwig Selig
(1926-2012) taught at several universities as Professor of Romance Languages before joining Columbia University in 1966 where he remained until his retirement in 1989.
