About This Book

A comprehensive historical survey that traces how books were produced, copied, preserved, and distributed in Europe from the collapse of classical urban culture through the medieval period into early modernity. It examines the roles of monastic scriptoria, cathedral libraries, and early book-traders in safeguarding classical and contemporary texts; follows the advent of mechanical printing and the rise of printers, publishers, and international book markets; analyzes legal measures, privileges, monopolies, and censorship affecting the trade; and concludes with the gradual formation of concepts of literary property and the institutional changes that shaped the modern publishing system.
