| The Armarium has been established to
provide facsimile reproductions of important manuscripts along with a
detailed study of the palaeography and the textual traditions contained.
The series is limited to facsimiles of manuscripts originating from the
Graeco-Roman world and in particular those of a Christian inspiration. |
| Editorial responsibility: C.
Sirat, J. Irigoin and E. Poulle |
| The series contains studies concerning
"bibliology", that is the sum of disciplines that deal with
books, whether manuscript or printed, the history of books,
book-collectors, book-dealing, bibliography and "bibliothéconomie". |

The Encyclopédie
Bénédictine has published two related studies recently: L. Vos’s Louis de Blois, abbé de Liessies (1506-1566: Recherches
bibliographiques sur son oeuvre (1992), and the Matricula monachorum professorum reformationis abbatiae et totius sacri
ordinis Cluniacensis, translated and edited by Dom Paul Denis (†)
and Dom Y. Chaussy (1994). This new collection builds on this, in a
conscious revival of the seventeenth-century work by A. Sanderus, Bibliotheca belgica manuscripta. Many modernday monasteries, whether
Benedictine or Cistercian, own manuscript collections which are scarcely
known to scholars. On the other hand, many manuscripts from former
monasteries which have since disappeared and which are not now in public
holdings are in private collections and often remain unknown or
misattributed. This series therefore intends to bring these hidden
treasures to light. Several catalogues are envisaged which will describe
particular holdings of individual monasteries, or the holdings of several
monasteries in a specific region. |

Academie België |
| This series aims at providing a critical edition
of medieval booklists from the Southern Low Countries. By this is
understood all texts documenting the holdings of book-collections which
existed before 1500 within the borders of present-day Belgium. The Corpus
contains in a single set of volumes the basic materials for the study of
medieval libraries and literary culture (in its broadest sense) in
Belgium. |

undertaken by various national teams. The volumes demonstrate how the
literature of the Ancient; Patristic and medieval periods became available

of the Renaissance.]

This collection is dedicated
to original-size facsimile publications. Volumes also contain
transcripts and a critical study of visual documents of all kinds,
grouped thematically, relating to the medieval history of different
European countries. The objectives of the series are the benefit of
scholarship and the conversation of European heritage.
The visual element is taken into account first, after which
attention is given to the content of the texts reproduced and to the physical
support upon which they were written or engraved. A publication of this kind is
of interest to philologists as well as to codicologists, diplomatists and
epigraphists.
The new collection will be divided into national series. The
Series Gallica and the Series Hispanica are already well advanced.
The following sub-series fall within the Monumenta Palaeographica Medii
Aevi:
 |
Monumenta Palaeographica Medii Aevi - Series Gallica
(SGAL) |
In the Series Gallica will be published, firstly the earliest
charters from Cluny, followed successively by the documents of the emperor Louis the Pious, the
charters of Aquitaine and of Lorraine, the "private deeds" of the ninth
and tenth centuries conserved in the Archives Nationales de Paris, and the French
royal wax tablets of the ninth and tenth centuries.
| Monumenta Palaeographica Medii Aevi - Series Hebraica (SHEB) |
| Monumenta Palaeographica Medii Aevi - Series Hispanica (SHIS) |
The Series Hispanica has been opened with the medieval inscriptions
of Zamora. Then will appear volumes on the inscriptions of other
provinces, the Visigothic states of the sixth to eighth centuries as
well as documents on parchment. Work has commenced on the production of a
corpus of manuscripts in Visigothic script.
