Printing R-Evolution 1450-1500

About

During the years 2014-2019 a ERC Consolidator grant conferred to Cristina Dondi funded the 15cBOOKTRADE project. The scholarly results were presented at a Conference held in the Ducal Palace of Venice on 19-21 Sept. 2018. Here you will find the video recordings of the conference, as well as the electronic publication of the proceedings, which were published in February 2020 by Edizioni Ca’ Foscari. Results were also shared with the general public in a large Exhibition held in the Marciana National Library and the Correr Museum of Venice, 1 Sept. 2018 – 30 Apr. 2019. A catalogue was published by Marsilio. The extensive digital contents of the Exhibition (over 15 videos, maps, and graphs) are available here. In December 2022 the exhibition was newly set up in Buenos Aires, in collaboration with Ediciones Ampersand: Printing R-Evolution (1450-1500): La revolución de la imprenta (Buenos Aires, MUNTREF – Centro de Arte Contemporáneo – Sede Hotel de Inmigrantes, 7 Dec. 2022 – 20 Mar. 2023). Here a short video of the opening day.

In addition, links to digital material created by other projects are included and will continue to be added, to refine our presentation.
