Hypnerotomachia Poliphili

The Strife of Love in a Dream


  • Thames & Hudson
  • by Francesco Colonna
Exactly 500 years after its first publication, Francesco Colonna's weird, erotic, allegorical antiquarian tale, Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, was translated into English and reprinted with all of its 174 original woodcut illustrations. It is one of the most important documents of Renaissance imagination and fantasy, and its woodcuts are a primary source for Renaissance ideas on both buildings and gardens. First published in 1999 exactly like the original, and now available in a smaller paperback edition.
