Doktori disszertációmat (2012) tartja kezében a tisztelt Olvasó. Jelen kiadás alig tér el az eredetitől, mindössze apró változtatásokat eszközöltem. Ez elsősorban a szonátákat elemző részt érinti, amelyet a jobb megértés céljából néhány helyen kissé kibővítettem, ill. több ábrával, kottapéldával láttam el. A cseh zene fejlődésmenetét tárgyaló fejezeteket pedig képekkel, művészi illusztrációkkal tettem színesebbé...

This book, published by Archetype Publications in association with HES & DE GRAAF Publishers, surveys the history of the techniques of engraving, etching and plate printing - ie that of manual intaglio printmaking processes - from its beginning in the 1430s until today. These developments are observed in the light of the coherence between the technique of the intaglio print (such as its materials and methods of production); the ‘style’ or outward appearance of the print; the creator of the print; and the fashion typical of a particular social group, place and time. Economic, educational and social aspects are discussed, as well as the dissemination of the trade of intaglio printmaking.

The aesthetic qualities of a painted work of art are determined by composition, the colours used and the application method. Equally important are the support and its preparation. Preparatory layers are fundamental to the creative process and to the perception of the work: they influence the final surface texture, the paints' luminosity and the durability of a painting. For centuries painters were well aware of these facts and took great care in this stage of the process.

In August 1971 Laszlo Beke—a renowned Hungarian art historian and curator of several progressive art events of the 1970s—asked 28 artists to submit their reaction to the concept “WORK = the DOCUMENTATION OF THE IMAGINATION/IDEA” on A4 sheets. Beke arranged and preserved the contributions in folders, which have been available for viewing over the last 30 years only in his flat, which has thus become a center of archival research and study for artists interested in Conceptual art.
