    The New Shape of Sharing: Networks, Expertise, Information

    Online series on key issues facing Western European collections and public services will encourage debate and surface new ideas. The sessions will focus on three areas: new models for collaborative collection development and services; the growing range of content and format types and their significance for libraries and researchers; and the evolving role of libraries and librarians in the research process. The multiple effects of the pandemic on libraries and academic institutions clearly demonstrate that the topics chosen for the forum—cooperation and sharing of collections, services, and technology among libraries, scholars, and members of the book and publishing communities—are particularly pertinent in today’s library environment.

    Text as object in the Middle Ages

    The International Medieval Congress (IMC) is the largest medieval studies conference in the world. In line with the Special Thematic Strand in 2019 “Materialities” and the recent creation of the strand “Manuscript studies”, we organize sessions on “Text as object in the Middle Ages”. Texts, indeed, are at the same time an idea and a form. The latter is the result of a combination of inherited social uses and specific intentions by the various actors involved in transmitting the text as idea. This process begins with the authors, continues to the craftsmen (parchment and paper makers, copyists and chancery clerks, painters and illuminators, sculptors and weavers, booksellers…) and then on to possessors, readers, archives and libraries. All textual artefacts are concerned: manuscripts, charters, inscriptions, tapestries, seals, coins, etc.

    English Printed Books, Manuscripts and Material Studies

    14th ESSE (European Society for the Study of English) Conference, Seminar 51

    This seminar’s focus is on the physicality of English printed books and manuscripts, whether they be strictly literary or not. We are especially interested in how particular editions and manuscripts shape the text’s interpretation and reading practices. Research topics include, but are not restricted to: finding rare editions and manuscripts, archival work, book and manuscript collections, printing practices and scribal work, palaeography, manuscripts as books, the coexistence of manuscripts and printed books, editing printed books and manuscripts, electronic versus printed editions, editing and digital humanities.

    Medieval Texts and Manuscripts in the World of Linked Data

    Workshop COST ACTION IS 1005 Medieval Europe

    Les médiévistes – et parmi eux, les spécialistes des textes et des manuscrits – ont toujours des acteurs essentiels du Digital Turn scientifique dans lequel les sciences humaines et sociales sont engagées. Depuis les premiers travaux de constitution de corpus à l’édition électronique en TEI, en passant par l’établissement de bases de données structurées, la recherche sur les sources manuscrites médiévales s’est profondément transformée. Le temps est probablement venu de structurer le paysage numérique des études sur les textes et manuscrits médiévaux en Europe. C’est avec cet objectif qu’est né le projet COST IS 1005 Medieval Europe. Cet atelier constitue, dans les travaux de ce groupe, un jalon essentiel.

    Modernité du livre médiéval

    Bibliothèque nationale de France - Les ateliers du livre

    Nouveaux outils, nouvelles approches et perspectives renouvelées : ainsi peut-on caractériser les recherches actuelles sur le livre au Moyen Âge. En ouvrant la voie à des formes d’étude et de collaboration originales, les technologies modernes - via les fac-similés et éditions électroniques, bases de données paléographiques, innombrables comparaisons de texte, de mises en page, d’iconographie... - ont rendu le livre médiéval proche de nous et accessible à tous. Parallèlement, les problématiques privilégiées par la recherche des dix dernières années ouvrent des champs nouveaux. Ensemble, ces innovations témoignent de la vitalité et de la modernité des études sur le livre médiéval, dont cette journée se propose d'exposer quelques aspects.
