It is open, until January 20th 2023, the call for papers for the issue 20 of Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal, dedicated to the theme The Book in Its Time: Places, Materials, Forms and Techniques.

We propose in this call an exercise that recovers the procedures and techniques that gained body to welcome another invention, that of writing, which inscribes the history of copyists, printing typographers who moved between cities and countries in search of business, that of their emergence in monasteries, courts, universities, binder workshops and typographies, that of street vendors and that of the production and marketing circuits.

The scientific coordination of this issue is in charge of Fernando J. Bouza Álvarez (Universidad Complutense de Madrid), João Luís Lisboa (CHAM – NOVA FCSH) and Luís Martins (IELT – NOVA FCSH).
