Abstract

Cet ouvrage présente les résultats des travaux effectués dans le cadre d'un Groupement de recherche (GDR) initié par le CNRS en 2003 pour une durée de quatre ans et portant sur les matériaux du livre médiéval. Ce groupement de recherche avait pour but de fédérer, dans un travail collectif interdisciplinaire et pluridisciplinaire, des équipes de recherche en sciences humaines, des laboratoires de sciences dites "dures", autrement dit des historiens, des paléographes, des archivistes-paléographes, des chimistes, des physiciens, des conservateurs de bibliothèques, d'archives, de musées, mais également des enseignants, des artisans ' papetiers et formaires (les formaires étant des fabricants de formes à faire le papier à la main); participaient aussi au projet parcheminiers, enlumineurs, calligraphes, relieurs, etc., ainsi qu'un cinéaste documentariste.

Abstract

"Le renouveau culturel carolingien confère au livre une place majeure dans la société, qui perdure dans le monde ottonien. Sa production est suffisamment abondante pour que près de 9000 manuscrits de cette époque nous soient parvenus, et le soin apporté à la qualité de leur confection est remarquable. Les manuscrits, précieux ou non, corrigés, glosés, comparés, échangés, servent à l'action, politique ou judiciaire, à la spiritualité, à la réforme religieuse, au développement de l'humanisme carolingien. Dans la société et la culture chrétiennes, l'objet-livre revêt un caractère précieux et somptuaire, comme en témoignent sa place de choix au sein des trésors d'église et sa haute valeur monétaire. Il est l'incarnation à la fois de l'autorité sacrée, du pouvoir et du savoir ; investi d'une forte dimension symbolique, il peut aussi être source de conflits et victime de destructions. Polymorphe, il intervient dans de multiples situations et se trouve au cœur des relations entre protagonistes : il peut être tour à tour exhibé sous l'aspect d'un rouleau, d'un codex ouvert ou fermé, mangé, foulé aux pieds, dissimulé, utilisé pour prêter des serments? À la fois contenant et contenu, objet et parole, le livre est aussi un objet imaginaire et imaginé. L'enquête collective envisagée ici dépasse la dimension archétypale du livre pour cerner, à travers une approche pluridisciplinaire combinant l'histoire sociale, culturelle et artistique, la spécificité des représentations carolingiennes du livre."

Abstract

This book is the first to date to be dedicated to the circulation of the book as a commodity in the Mamluk sultanate. It discusses the impact of princely patronage on the production of books, the formation and management of libraries in religious institutions, their size and their physical setting. It documents the significance of private collections and their interaction with institutional libraries and the role of charitable endowments ( waqf ) in the life of libraries. The market as a venue of intellectual and commercial exchanges and a production centre is explored with references to prices and fees. The social and professional background of scribes and calligraphers occupies a major place in this study, which also documents the chain of master-calligraphers over the entire Mamluk period. For her study the author relies on biographical dictionaries, chronicles, waqf documents and manuscripts.

Abstract

"Between roughly 1350 and 1500, the English vernacular became established as a language of literary, bureaucratic, devotional and controversial writing; metropolitan artisans formed guilds for the production and sale of books for the first time; and Gutenberg's and eventually Caxton's printed books reached their first English consumers. This book gathers the best new work on manuscript books in England made during this crucial but neglected period. Its authors survey existing research, gather intensive new evidence and develop new approaches to key topics. The chapters cover the material conditions and economy of the book trade; amateur production both lay and religious; the effects of censorship; and the impact on English book production of manuscripts and artisans from elsewhere in the British Isles and Europe. A wide-ranging and innovative series of essays, this volume is a major contribution to the history of the book in medieval England"--

Abstract

"Latin books are among the most numerous surviving artifacts of the Late Antique, Mediaeval, and Renaissance periods in European history; written in a variety of formats and scripts, they preserve the literary, philosophical, scientific, and religious heritage of the West. The Oxford Handbook of Latin Palaeography surveys these books, with special emphasis on the variety of scripts in which they were written. Palaeography, in the strictest sense, examines how the changing styles of script and the fluctuating shapes of individual letters allow the date and the place of production of books to be determined. More broadly conceived, palaeography examines the totality of early book production, ownership, dissemination, and use. The Oxford Handbook of Latin Palaeography includes essays on major types of script (uncial, Insular, Beneventan, Visigothic, Gothic, etc.), describing what defines these distinct script types, and outlining when and where they were used. It expands on previous handbooks of the subject by incorporating select essays on less well-studied periods and regions, in particular late mediaeval Eastern Europe. The Oxford Handbook of Latin Palaeography is also distinguished from prior handbooks by its extensive focus on codicology and on the cultural settings and contexts of mediaeval books. Essays treat of various important features, formats, styles, and genres of mediaeval books, and of representative mediaeval libraries as intellectual centers. Additional studies explore questions of orality and the written word, the book trade, glossing and glossaries, and manuscript cataloguing. The extensive plates and figures in the volume will provide readers with clear illustrations of the major points, and the succinct bibliographies in each essay will direct them to more detailed works in the field."--
