The Medieval Manuscripts of Corvey Abbey - Digital Collection

在其全盛时期(9至12世纪)，科维帝国修道院的图书馆是法兰克帝国最重要的修道院图书馆之一。1803年教区科维解散后，修道院图书馆被驱散，其中世纪手稿散落在欧洲各地。今天，有150份中世纪手稿和手稿碎片，分布在51个机构。大部分手稿，即60份文件，由马尔堡大学和帕德伯恩的ErzBischöflich Akademische图书馆持有。手稿分布在德国28家图书馆、档案馆和博物馆，28份手稿由世界各地的机构持有。该项目的目的是将在马尔堡和帕德伯恩保存的科维手稿数字化。此外，还将订购拥有柯维手稿的其他德国机构的电子版。将联系持有相关稿件的外国机构，并寻求他们的支持。这些数字副本将在马尔堡大学的数字收藏中组装。这样，个别手稿将在其历史和收藏背景下呈现，这将成为国际手稿研究的良好基础。

In its heyday (9th to 12th century), the library of the Imperial Abbey of Corvey was one of the most important monastery libraries of the Frankish Empire. After the diocese Corvey was dissolved in 1803, the abbey library was dispersed and its medieval manuscripts were scattered all over Europe. Today, there are 150 medieval manuscripts and fragments of manuscripts, which are distributed among 51 institutions. A significant proportion of the manuscripts, i.e. 60 documents, are held by the Universitätsbibliothek Marburg and the Erzbischöflich Akademische Bibliothek in Paderborn. 64 manuscripts are distributed among 28 libraries, archives and museums in Germany and 28 manuscripts are held by institutions worldwide. The aim of the project is to digitize the Corvey manuscripts which are held in Marburg and Paderborn. In addition, digital copies will be ordered of other German institutions which are in possession of Corvey manuscripts. Foreign institutions holding relevant manuscripts will be contacted and be asked for their support. The digital copies will be assembled in a digital collection at the Universitätsbibliothek Marburg. In this way the individual manuscripts will be presented in their historical and in their collection context, which will be an excellent base for international manuscript research.
