Books before print - manuscripts - were modified continuously
throughout the medieval period. Focusing on the ninth and twelfth
centuries, this volume explores such material changes as well as
the varying circumstances under which handwritten books were
produced, used and collected. An important theme is the
relationship between the physical book and its users. Can we
reflect on reading practices through an examination of the layout
of a text? To what extent can we use the contents of libraries to
understand the culture of the book? The volume explores such issues
by focusing on a broad palette of texts and through a detailed
analysis of manuscripts from all corners of Europe. This title is
available in the OAPEN Library - http://www.oapen.org.
