The Whole Book, edited by Stephen G. Nichols and Siegfried Wenzel, assembles findings from a diverse group of well-respected medievalists, classicists, and text critics. Their many areas of research have intersected in this study of how medieval manuscripts developed mechanisms for using the available space in the technologies of the codex, which we now know as the book. The scholars presented here, whose own fields of study range from Latin religious texts to vernacular romance, comment on one particular category of manuscript, the "miscellany." This genre of manuscript had the ability to accommodate a wide variety of written documents, making it difficult to classify. 001381240 520__ $$aThe term miscellany has traditionally been used, for want of a better term, but such a collection could very well be described as the "hard disk" of the medieval codex: it was a space on which almost any kind of information could be stored in a variety of formats - texts, pictures, designs, symbols, etc. Like the hard disk of a computer, it offered a seemingly vast, though of course in fact limited, space for recording items. It furthermore inspired numerous ways of organizing, distributing, and codifying the information to facilitate retrieval. The Whole Book deals with manuscripts from the early Middle Ages to humanist works of the early Renaissance, and it presents the conditions of production and analyzes the organizational techniques in particular kinds of miscellanies. 001381240 530__ $$aAlso issued online. 001381240 648_7 $$a400-1600$$2fast 001381240 650_0 $$aLiterature, Medieval$$xCriticism, Textual. 001381240 650_0 $$aManuscripts, Medieval$$xEditing. 001381240 650_0 $$aLiterature, Medieval$$xEditing. 001381240 650_0 $$aBooks$$xHistory$$y400-1450. 001381240 650_0 $$aBooks$$xHistory$$y1450-1600. 001381240 650_0 $$aAnthologies$$xEditing. 001381240 65017 $$aBloemlezingen.$$2gtt 001381240 65017 $$aHandschriften.$$2gtt 001381240 65017 $$aCulturele aspecten.$$2gtt 001381240 650_7 $$aLittérature médiévale$$xHistoire et critique.$$2ram 001381240 650_7 $$aAnthologies$$xEditing.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst02019930 001381240 650_7 $$aBooks.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00836401 001381240 650_7 $$aLiterature, Medieval.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01000151 001381240 650_7 $$aManuscripts, Medieval$$xEditing.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01905918 001381240 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001381240 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001381240 7001_ $$aNichols, Stephen G. 001381240 7001_ $$aWenzel, Siegfried,$$d1928- 001381240 77608 $$iOnline version:$$tWhole book.$$dAnn Arbor : University of Michigan Press, ©1996$$w(OCoLC)647235880 001381240 830_0 $$aRecentiores. 001381240 852__ $$bgen$$hPN162$$i.W47 1996 001381240 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1381240$$pGLOBAL_SET 001381240 980__ $$aBOOK 001381240 980__ $$aBIB
