This collection, presented to Michael Friedrich in honour of his academic career at of the Centre for the Study of Manuscript Cultures, traces key concepts that scholars associated with the Centre have developed and refined for the systematic study of manuscript cultures.

Een krachtige ode aan het geschreven woord. Vallejo legt op fascinerende wijze verbanden tussen de moderne tijd en oude teksten en mythen. Het boek is een van de mooiste uitvindingen ter wereld. Met een boek kunnen woorden door tijd en ruimte reizen, en kunnen we kennis opdoen over wat zich bijvoorbeeld wel dertig eeuwen geleden heeft afgespeeld. Irene Vallejo neemt de lezer mee op reis door het leven van dit fascinerende gebruiksvoorwerp. Er zijn haltes op de route bij de slagvelden van Alexander de Grote en bij de villa van Papyri ten tijde van de uitbarsting van de Vesuvius, bij de eerste bekende bibliotheken en werkplaatsen waar manuscripten werden gekopieerd en bij de kampvuren waar verboden boeken brandden. Onderweg verbindt Vallejo klassieke werken met de duizelingwekkende moderne wereld en hedendaagse debatten: Aristophanes en de rechtszaken tegen cartoonisten, Sappho en de literaire stem van vrouwen, Seneca en politiek. Papyrus is een ongelooflijk avontuur met in de hoofdrol duizenden mensen die door de eeuwen heen het voortbestaan van het boek hebben gewaarborgd: verhalenvertellers, kopiisten, illustratoren, vertalers, straatverkopers, leraren, spionnen, rebellen, nonnen, slaven, avonturiers en boekverkopers. Het is een prachtige, wervelende ode aan het geschreven woord die laat zien hoe individuele levens en maatschappijen worden beïnvloed en gevormd door boeken.

Reveals the experience of reading in many cultures and across the agesCovers pornography and the origins of the transgender movementExplores everyday reading in Nazi GermanyAnalyses prison readingExamines reading in revolutionary societies and occupied nationsSubversive Readers explores the strategies used by readers to question authority, challenge convention, resist oppression, assert their independence and imagine a better world.

Reveals the experience of reading in many cultures and across the ages Covers reading practices from China in the 6th century BCE to Britain in the 18th century Employs a range of methodologies from close textual analysis to quantitative data on book ownership Examines a wide range of texts and ways of reading them from English poetry and funeral elegies to translated books in Peru Challenges period-based models of readership history Early Readerspresents a number of innovative ways through which we might capture or infer traces of readers in cultures where most evidence has been lost. It begins by investigating what a close analysis of extant texts from 6th-century BCE China can tell us about contemporary reading practices, explores the reading of medieval European women and their male medical practitioner counterparts, traces readers across New Spain, Peru, the Ottoman Empire and the Iberian world between 1500 and 1800, and ends with an analysis of the surprisingly enduring practice of reading aloud.
