Greek Manuscripts in Renaissance Venice: The Library of Guillaume Pellicier and its contribution to Europe's intellectual heritage

希腊语经典文本的传播到意大利，并从那里传播到法国和其他国家，对欧洲文艺复兴的文化和智力创新起到了决定性作用。然而，获取和组织这些作品所涉及的确切实践、关系和目标，包括印刷技术的到来带来的变化，仍然没有得到充分的研究。通过对具体收藏品和收藏家的详细检查，可以更好地理解它们。该项目的重点是一位非常活跃和有效的收藏家纪尧姆·佩里西耶(Guillaume Pellicier，约1490-1567)的图书馆，他是法国主教和弗朗索瓦·伊尔(François Ier)驻威尼斯大使。它将详细介绍这些藏品(今天大部分收藏在柏林图书馆)，将其内容数字化，并详细研究16世纪威尼斯希腊文化的传播历史，以及文艺复兴时期私人和公共图书馆的传播历史。该项目将有助于我们了解书籍的制作和流通方式，以及定居意大利的第二代和第三代希腊人在将希腊文化遗产传递给现代欧洲方面所发挥的作用。对这一语料库的调查和分析将为印刷时代手稿生产的生存提供新的观点，这是书籍生产的一个方面，在学术研究中被低估，在全球书面文化研究中也被低估。该项目将使研究人员和公众都能使用该图书馆，并将为保存、保护和宣传作为欧洲文化和智力遗产典范的藏书提供工具。它还旨在让公众更好地了解威尼斯的文化生活和弗朗索瓦·伊尔国王的文化政策，特别是关于希腊文化的政策。该项目将由Raphaële Mouren(伦敦；PI)领导。她在学术历史和16世纪意大利希腊文学传播方面的专业知识将是该项目的关键，她对手稿描述和批判版档案文件的规范和格式的掌握也将是该项目的关键。联合调查员将是罗莎·玛丽亚·皮乔内，她是一位古典主义者，也是一位在希腊文化和手稿制作以及16世纪威尼斯的传播方面的专家。两名博士后研究人员将支持该项目，致力于手稿目录的工作。一名短期合同顾问将帮助我们调查法国和意大利的档案。元数据和数字图书馆专家Richard Gartner将用XML(TEI，Mets)和CIDOC-CROM设计数据集的结构。一个国际咨询委员会将在古文字学、手稿研究、图书馆史和数字人文等关键领域提供额外的专门知识。该项目得到了柏林图书馆的财政和实物支持。该项目将扩大我们对16世纪法国和意大利印刷时代的手稿生产和图书馆创建的了解。它将提供可能支持博士论文和该领域更广泛学术的隐藏材料；它将对图书馆员和元数据专家的工作有价值；它将以各种可互操作的格式创建一个重要的数据和元数据语料库，以供重复使用和共享，并将产生若干学科的一系列出版物。它的成果将引起广泛的非学术专业观众以及普通公众的兴趣。

The spread of classical texts in Greek into Italy, and from there to France and other nations, was decisive for the cultural and intellectual innovations of the European Renaissance. Yet the precise practices, relationships, and goals involved in acquiring and organizing these works, including the changes brought by the arrival of printing, remain significantly understuded. They can be best understood by detailed examination of specific collections and collectors. This project focuses on the library of one remarkably active and effective collector, Guillaume Pellicier (ca. 1490-1567), a French bishop and ambassador of François Ier to Venice. It will produce a detailed description of the collection (which is today held for the most part at the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin), the digitisation of its contents, and a detailed study of the history of the transmission of Greek culture in sixteenth-century Venice and of private and public libraries in the Renaissance. The project will contribute significantly to our understanding of the ways in which books were produced and circulated, and of the role played by the second and third generation of Greeks settled in Italy in the transmission of the Greek cultural patrimony to modern Europe.The investigation and analysis of this corpus will offer new views on the survival of manuscript production in the age of printing, an aspect of book production that is under-represented in academic research and underestimated in global studies of written culture. This project will make the library accessible to researchers and the general public alike and will provide tools for the conservation, protection and promotion of the collection as a prime example of the cultural and intellectual heritage of Europe. It also aims to offer the general public a better understanding of cultural life in Venice and of the cultural policy of King François Ier, particularly in regard to Greek culture.The project will be led by Raphaële Mouren (London; PI). Her expertise in the history of scholarship and the transmission of Greek literature in 16th c. Italy will be key to the project as will her command of the norms and formats of manuscript description and critical edition archival documentation. The Co-investigator will be Rosa Maria Piccione, a classicist and a specialist in the transmission of Greek culture and manuscript production and in sixteenth century Venice. Two postdoctoral researchers will support the project, working on the manuscript catalogue. A consultant on a short contract will help us investigate archives in France and Italy. Richard Gartner, a specialist in metadata and digital libraries, will design the structure for the dataset in XML (TEI, METS) and CIDOC-CROM. An international advisory board will provide additional expertise in the key areas of palaeography, manuscript studies, the history of libraries and digital humanities. The project is supported, both financially and in-kind, by the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin.The project will expand our knowledge of manuscript production in the age of printing and the creation of libraries in sixteenth-century France and Italy. It will make available hidden material that might support PhD theses and wider scholarship in the field; it will be of value to the work of librarians and metadata specialists; it will create a significant corpus of data and metadata in a variety of interoperable formats for reuse and sharing and will generate a range of publications in several disciplines. Its outputs will be of interest to a large range of non-academic professional audiences as well as the general public.
