Expected learning outcomes
Knowledge: At the end of the course, students will acquire knowledge of the methods of production and edition of printed books, in the ancient typographic regime and in the modern and contemporary age, on the one hand, and, on the other, knowledge of the methods of study of author's papers and the problems posed by their edition.
Competences: At the end of the course, students will acquire both the ability to investigate from a philological point of view specimens of ancient and modern books, and the competence necessary to deal with writers' autographs and to define the characteristics that their publication may have.
