Issue 219 of Engramma, entitled ‘Warburg Updated. Bibliography and Mnemosyne Atlas’, marks a further stage in the development of studies on Warburg and the Mnemosyne Atlas. The issue is divided into two sections: the first, ‘Aby Warburg and Mnemosyne Atlas. Readings and Pathways through the Bilderatlas’ explores the analysis of the Atlas conducted by the Mnemosyne Seminar. The second part, ‘Bibliography. Works by Aby Warburg, Warburgkreis and Secondary Literature’, offers a new version of Warburg’s bibliography, updated to December 2024.
This Bibliography is a selection of the main editions of Aby M. Warburg’s works, essays, and critical materials.It is the result of a composite work in progress, a necessarily dynamic process started in 2004, which has so far involved several members of the Seminario Mnemosyne. We invite scholars and readers to send suggestions for the inclusion of further bibliographic entries to the Editorial board of Engramma.
