Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Medieval manuscripts showcase the artistry and craftsmanship of specialized artisans who created durable books using rare materials. These labor-intensive works, often made from numerous animal skins and precious inks, were expensive and designed for longevity. Instead of discarding outdated texts, owners innovatively updated and repurposed them, reflecting a commitment to preservation and adaptation in the face of changing times. This highlights the cultural value placed on books during the medieval period.
