| innovatingknowledge.nl | Innovating Knowledge Project | The project’s central focus is analyzing the dynamics of innovation in the Carolingian period by studying the Etymologiae, a medieval encyclopedia that was subject to frequent modifications and adaptations by its users. Researchers have compiled a database of nearly 500 early medieval manuscripts and fragments transmitting the Etymologiae, providing an interactive resource for studying these texts and their innovative features. Alongside the database, the project has produced a digital edition of glosses to the Etymologiae, utilizing network analysis to map the spread of these annotations across early medieval manuscripts. | Specialized History → European History 107 | manuscript 197 database 1153 | |

| medievalbooks.nl | Erik Kwakkel | The initial writing surfaces for medieval books were animal skins – primarily from cows, goats, and sheep – due to the lack of paper in Europe. These animal skins, known as parchment, were transformed into pages filled with literary and theological texts, preserving classical and medieval writings for future generations. The process of parchment making involved careful de-hairing, trimming, and sanding, but imperfections like small holes from the knife could reveal the animal’s origin, as exemplified by a copy of Lucan’s text on calf skin. | | manuscript 197 page 427 animal 2908 book 11396 | |
