I libri di Bessarione
Studi sui manoscritti del Cardinale a Venezia e in Europa
Abstract
Thirty years after the conclusion of the cataloguing of the manuscripts kept in the Marciana Library (Venice), due to the the progresses of palaeographic, codicological and intellectual studies on Byzantium and Italy in the fifteenth century, it is possible to reconsider Bessarion’s library, its formation, its history, its organization and also the activity of the Cardinal (and his collaborators) as a copyist and annotator of manuscripts.
