Iordanvs Brvnvs nolanvs De vmbris idearvm : implicantibus artem quaerendi, inueniendi, iudicandi, ordinandi, & applicandi : ad internam scripturam, & non vulgares per memoriam operationes explicatis
Giordano Bruno's 1582 Paris treatise on memory and the art of finding, judging and arranging ideas, printed for Aegidius Gorbinus and drawn from the mnemonic tradition for scholars and readers of Latin. The pictures are small black-and-white letterpress woodcuts: concentric alphabet wheels with Greek and Latin letters, a central sun face and a looped monogram, and a lion inside a decorated roundel, offering a designer compact emblematic devices and ornamental frames.
