Cultures of the Fragment

Uses of the Iberian Manuscript, 1100-1600

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Cultures of the Fragment places fragments at the center of reading and non-reading uses of Iberian manuscripts. The book contests the notion that fragments came about accidentally, arguing that most fragments were created on purpose, as a result of a wide range of practical, intellectual and spiritual uses of manuscript material.
