Leaving a Lasting Impression. The Impact of Incunabula on Late Medieval Spirituality, Religious Practice and Visual Culture in the Low Countries
Start a new DMP in Loading
As a medieval invention, the art of printing had a great influence on spirituality and visual culture at the end of the Middle Ages. Research into the texts (how did printers (or their collaborators) edit texts?), the presentation of the texts (layout and illustrations) and traces of readers (e.g. notes) shows that printed books offered a platform for new texts as well as new versions of popular texts. The printed book offered readers the space to adapt it to their personal wishes and, if desired, to combine it with handwritten texts, leading to a symbiosis between handwritten and printed books.
