[scribes]: bibliographies online ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 10:17:09 EST From: RenScribe@aol.com Subject: [scribes]: bibliographies online Greetings from Eibhlin I was searching for info on the book on flourishing that was posted to the list a few days ago and tripped over this link to a course on manuscript studies from the University of Alberta; Edmonton, Canada http://www.ualberta.ca/~sreimer/ms-course.htm If you follow the link to bibliographies, there are 960 entries, broken down by subject. Here's the list: * Some basic resources worth knowing * General bibliography * History of the book * Literacy and education, medieval and early modern (readers and reading) * Archival research * Forgeries / bibliographic fraud * Dictionaries (historical) * Early printed books and incunabula: production * Early printed books and incunabula: catalogues * Early printed books and incunabula: facsimiles * Diplomatics: the study of historical documents * Printing, history of * Publishing, history of * Libraries and repositories, history of; book collecting * Manuscript culture * Manuscript culture: patronage * Manuscripts: codicology * Manuscripts: paleography * Manuscript production * Manuscript production: scribes and scribal practices * Manuscript production: decoration and illustration * Manuscript production: material culture (paper, bindings, etc.) * Manuscripts: catalogues and finding aids * Manuscripts: facsimiles and facsimile editions * Sigillography (the study of seals) * Textual criticism and editing You can also do a keyword search if you are looking for something particular. There are many entries for books and journals that I've never heard of before, even though they are fairly recent publications. As soon as I print out some information ... I'm off to visit the interlibrary loan department. :-) Eibhlin ni Chaoimh AEthelmearc =================================================================== To unsubscribe from this list, send email to with a blank Subject: line and unsubscribe scribes in the body of the message.
