Documents and New Studies on the History of the Book in Ferrara in the Eighteenth Century

Abstract

The presentation of two recent studies which explore the history of printing in Ferrara from the 16^th to the 18^th century (Biblioteca Comunale Ariostea, Ferrara, 9 November 2022) is the starting point for debating about methodology, especially in relation to the cultural profile of the scholar dedicated to this task: the historian of the book.
