Omschrijving
This book explores the practices of collectors of books, their networks and actions, as well as the book collections themselves, public and private, during the Renaissance, Enlightenment and modern eras to c.1900.
"The quality of the historical scholarship is high. Many of the papers offer fascinating insights into archival practices in little-known parts of the world... Above all, Manuscripts and Archives is to be applauded for traversing the divide that so often separates medieval and early-modern historians from their colleagues who study more remote societies. The inclusion of a solitary contribution from a practising archivist is a small but welcome bonus." - Geoffrey Yeo, Library & Information History
