Festschrift Pedro Campa  
In Nocte Consilium. Studies in Emblematics in Honor of Pedro F. Campa. Edited 
by John T. Cull and Peter M. Daly. (SAECVLA SPIRITALIA 46) Baden-Baden: 
Verlag Valentin Koerner, 2011. 516 pp., 77 illustrations. 
 
In Nocte Consilium [counsel comes over night] is truly a book on which the wise owl sits. Just 
as Covarrubias’ homonymous emblem, it provides the erudition obtained from careful 
learning without distractions. 
 
The book contains a total of eighteen articles, grouped into three parts: ‘Hispanic Emblems 
and Literature’, ‘Bibliography and Emblem Theory’ and ‘Emblems, Emblematic Images, and 
Numismatics’, followed by the list of illustrations, Pedro F. Campa’s bibliography and the 
Nota Vitae of contributors to the volume. Almost all articles have illustrations. 
The first part examines Spanish emblematics not only in some of the most important 
Spanish emblematists of the sixteenth and seventeenth century (as Juan de Horozco in the 
useful data collection of Rafael Zafra, and in Christian Bouzy’s further study of the Emblemas 
  Page 34  
  
Morales), but also in other texts not traditionally ‘emblematic’. Thus, Ignacio Arellano and 
Frederick A. de Armas both offer detailed studies of emblematic repercussions in Spanish 
Golden Age drama. Armas concentrates on Lope de Vega’s lesser-known Las almenas de Toro 
[The Battlements of Toro] and the symbolic astrology therein to be read as if it were an emblem 
(pp. 114-115). Arellano reads Calderon de la Barca’s palace plays, whose subtextual reference 
to Baltasar Gracián’s Agudeza y Arte de Ingenio is subsequently picked up by Aurora Egido’s 
thorough study on representations of the heart of a king in Gracián. Two other studies stand 
out for their incisiveness: on text, José Azanza López’ account of direct emblematic 
references in the epistemology of Philip IV and, on images, José Júlio García Arranz’ trace 
of the biblical motif of the whore of Babylon in the service of Early Modern religious and 
political polemics. 
 
In the second part Peter M. Daly theoretical discussion on the essence of the emblem 
chimes with Campa’s own study on emblem terminology in the Spanish tradition (1999). 
Likewise, Campa’s bibliophile interests are also honoured in Bárbara Skinfill Nogal’s account 
of Picinelli’s Mundus Symbolicus that, together with an appendix to Zafra’s article and 
Lubomír Konecný’s article on emblem theory in the works of the Jesuit Bohuslav Balbín, 
give this volume the necessary encyclopaedic weight it deserves. 
 
The third and final part of the book continues to mirror 
Campa’s lifework in its wide range of subjects and 
approaches, as in, inter alia, Michael Bath’s metho-
dological diegesis of the emblematic sources of four 
carved wooden panels in the Victoria and Albert 
Museum, or Antonio Bernat Vistarini and Tamás Sajó’s 
thorough insight on the iconography of Truth in the 
understudied Russian emblematic tradition. Campa’s 
expansive research is further honoured by Bernard 
Deschamps’ study of recent uses of emblem techniques 
in advertising and political propaganda around the 1995 
‘Oui-side’ Québécois independence campaign. Joseph F. 
Chorpenning, O.S.F.S., in discussing St. Fracis de Sales’ 
proposed meditative prayer in a 1610 letter, presents an 
alternative approach to the Visitation (with a focus on 
the nuclear Holy Family) with references to St. Teresa of 
Ávila’s mystic experiences (p. 329). Sabine Mödersheim 
studies here for the first time that rare thing that is an emblem manuscript book of female 
authorship in ‘The Fervent Heart: Isabella de Spiritu Sancto's Herzbücher (Books  of the 
Heart)’. Through her book, Isabella de Spiritu Sancto sought to give a female contribution 
to her nuns’ biblical exegesis drawing on Teresian heart iconography in the tradition of 
Carmelite mysticism. Rafael García Mahíques account of the fig-tree in emblematics and 
Victor Minguez and Inmaculada Rodríguez’ sound analysis of national stereotypes in the 
urban emblems of Daniel Meisner further attest to the depth and breadth of this volume. A 
hint to Campa’s perennial interest in Anglophone emblematics comes in by Alan R. Young, 
‘Kenny Meadows and the Emblematic Designs for Shakespeare's  Cymbeline in Robert 
Tyas's “Shakspere for the People” Project (1839-43)’, an erudite study of nineteenth-century 
emblematics with copious annotations.

Such a wide remit is a telling sign of the depth and breadth of the scholarly interests of 
Pedro F. Campa himself, and the book (including the choice of emblem for the cover) is a 
credit to the editors’ meticulous efforts in securing contributions from leading scholars to 
reflect Campa’s lifetime achievements… thus far.
