Lecturer: Ines Correia
Archaeological approach to manuscripts has become an important
matter during conservation treatments, especially when we are
dealing with parchment codices and historical bookbindings full of
macroscopic evidences sometimes described as deterioration.
Production and reception marks are valuable contribution to build
documents uniqueness, to complement manuscripts studies and to
promote future disclosures and material preservation.
