Edition
First Magnani paper cloth edition. Short Title: Hagia Sophia
Notes
Cloth (no dust jacket as issued); "When, in 1961, Merton gave the manuscript of "Hagia Sophia" to the Stamperia del Santuccio to be published under its imprint, two editions were planned: the first to be a small issue of 50 copies on Magnani paper with a frontispiece engraving, "Hagia Sophia and the Young Christ", after Victor Hammer's triptych painting, 1953-1956. The text pages for this edition were printed in 1961 but as the engraving was not yet finished, the decision was made to re-set the type and print a variant edition on Whatman paper as Opus XVll, 1962, of Stamperia del Santuccio imprints. Victor Hammer never finished the engraving. Now, a decade after his death, and the death of Thomas Merton, the pages of the text that he had printed and the unfinished engraving, printed here from the brass plate as he left it, are together in rememberance in this small volume. - C. R. H., December, 1978" - this text is taken from one of the front pages of this edition. This book is the last one to bear the imprint of Stamperia del Santuccio. Carolyn Hammer printed the frontispiece and title page for this 1978 edition.
