What does writing Greek books mean at the height of the Cinquecento in Venice? The present volume provides fascinating insights into Greek-language book production at a time when printed books were already at a rather advanced stage of development with regards to requests, purchases and exchanges of books; copying and borrowing practices; relations among intellectuals and with institutions, and much more. Based on the investigation into selected institutional and private libraries – in particular the book collection of Gabriel Severos, guide of the Greek Confraternity in Venice – the authors present new pertinent evidence from Renaissance books and documents, discuss methodological questions, and propose innovative research perspectives for a sociocultural approach to book histories.

"Giochino Torriano, superior of the community of San Zanipolo at Venice and later Governor General of the Dominican Order at Rome, began collecting Greek manuscripts to aid in his instruction of noble young Italians. This collection became serious when he acquired several volumes of the famed teacher John Argyropulus late in the 1480s. This study traces the growth of the collection through the 1490s, negotiations with the Venetian Senate to join Torriano’s books with the sequestered collection of Cardinal Bessarion, dissolution of the collection after the death of Torriano in 1500, its use early in the 16th century by Marcus Musurus, and final abandonment of the San Marco Library plan. Reconstruction is based upon notes and inventories made by Torriano himself (a recent discovery by Susy Marcon of the Marciana), Janus Lascaris, Martin Richter (unpublished), Conrad Gesner , Girolamo Vielmi (unpublished) and Filippo Tomasini which permit identiification of many manuscripts separated from those now maintained at the Marciana, presently housed in modern collections of northern Europe"--Publisher's website.

Few articles in the humanities have had the impact of Lisa Jardine and Anthony Grafton’s seminal ‘Studied for Action’ (1990), a study of the reading practices of Elizabethan polymath and prolific annotator Gabriel Harvey. Their excavation of the setting, methods and ambitions of Harvey’s encounters with his books ignited the History of Reading, an interdisciplinary field which quickly became one of the most exciting corners of the scholarly cosmos. A generation inspired by the model of Harvey fanned out across the world’s libraries and archives, seeking to reveal the many creative, unexpected and curious ways that individuals throughout history responded to texts, and how these interpretations in turn illuminate past worlds. Three decades on, Harvey’s example and Jardine’s work remain central to cutting-edge scholarship in the History of Reading. By uniting ‘Studied for Action’ with published and unpublished studies on Harvey by Jardine, Grafton and the scholars they have influenced, this collection provides a unique lens on the place of marginalia in textual, intellectual and cultural history. The chapters capture subsequent work on Harvey and map the fields opened by Jardine and Grafton’s original article, collectively offering a posthumous tribute to Lisa Jardine and an authoritative overview of the History of Reading.

Excerpt from The Greek Renaissance The object of this little volume is to indicate the scope and character of what the Greeks achieved in the first two centuries of their recorded history. With this end in view it deals with as many sides as possible of ancient Greek achievement, with art and industry, literature and science, no less than with politics and economics; but in each case the endeavour has been not to summarise the subject, but to write an introduction that will give the reader who is not familiar with Greek history some opportunity of seeing whether it might not be worth his while to follow up further the particular topic with which it deals. Books that will help him to do so are mentioned in the course of the work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
