Marginated : Seventeenth-Century Printed Books and the Traces of Their Readers, Paperback / softback Book

Marginated : Seventeenth-Century Printed Books and the Traces of Their Readers Paperback / softback

Part of the Bruce Peel Special Collections series

Paperback / softback

Description

Meaning "provided with marginal annotations," marginated neatly describes the items featured in this extensively researched catalogue.

From presentation inscriptions to readers' commentaries to children's doodles, the variety of annotations that appear in these 17th-century books gives unique insight into the lives of their readers-and, indeed, into the lives of the books, as they passed from owner to owner.

This catalogue was published to accompany a 2010 exhibit at the University of Alberta's Bruce Peel Special Collections Library and features items from the Library's collection.
