English description: What makes the publication of this book timely and necessary is the apparent need by historians, academics and collectors of antique books for a standardized terminology to describe book fastenings (clasps) and book furnishings. The myriad of expressions currently used for describing book fastenings and furnishings make an effective communication between researchers on the topic virtually impossible. The introduction of a precise, standardized terminology can no longer be avoided. With the publication of this book the author introduces an effective research system and a terminology that will enable the reader to adequately and distinctively describe the various kinds of book fastenings or book furnishings. The terminology is based on the book furnishings' and clasps' different types of construction as well as their different purposes and functionality. The author illustrates this approach with the use of over 140 technical illustrations that clearly and comprehensively explain the various types of book furnishings and clasps. He catalogues book fastenings and furnishings of German, Italian and Dutch backgrounds of periods ranging from the 8th to the 20th century. The extensive study is aided and illustrated by 750 photographs. The utility of this volume is further assisted by the addition of numerous appendices and indices that refer to key phrases and terms in the author's terminology. To avoid confusion, the author's terms are contrasted and compared to common descriptions used in traditional literature and to their Dutch, English, French or Italian equivalents. German description: Der vorliegende Band schafft eine notwendige standardisierte Terminologie fur Buchverschlusse und Buchbeschlage, die eine eindeutige Kommunikation zwischen Einbandforschern, Bibliothekaren, Restauratoren, Sammlern und Antiquaren auf Grundlage exakt definierter Begriffe auch im internationalen Rahmen ermoglicht. Basierend auf einer umfangreichen Datenbank entwickelt der Autor im ersten Teil des Buches eine Terminologie, die auf Konstruktion und Funktion des Buchverschlusses/Buchbeschlages beruht. In uber 140 technischen Zeichnungen werden die verschiedenen Verschluss- und Beschlagtypen vorgestellt. Im zweiten Teil des Buches werden Buchverschlusse und Buchbeschlage aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum, den Niederlanden und Italien in uber 750 Fotos prasentiert, ausfuhrlich beschrieben und den verschiedenen Epochen vom 8. bis zum 20. Jahrhundert zugeordnet. Die Abbildungen zeigen sowohl typische Beispiele als auch regionale Besonderheiten und Einzelexemplare. Von besonderem Nutzen sind die zahlreichen Anhange des Bandes, die unter anderem Ubersicht uber die Verschlusstypen, die Beschlagformen sowie uber die neu definierten Begriffe im Vergleich zu den bereits aus der Literatur bekannten Begriffen und ihren niederlandischen, englischen, franzosischen und italienischen Aquivalenten geben.
