Abstract

The history of catalogues is strongly interwoven with that of book collections. A book collection without a catalogue would be just a repository, while a catalogue without a book collection would be a contradictio in adjecto. This statement is even more valid in the case of manuscript collections, since a manuscript, unlike a printed book, represents an unicum and only a detailed and precise description may tell its complete history
