The assembled papers all look at the access to medieval texts in the period between the end of the Middle Ages to the 18th century. Which texts of which authors were privileged or neglected in the transmission from one generation to the next? What role played the printing houses and how did they handle the transition between the manuscript and the finished book? In what respect did the texts profit from editorial work, rewritings or translations? What roles can be assigned to scientists or collectors?
