Synopsis:
The annual Journal of the Early Book Society for the Study of Manuscripts and Printing History is published by Pace University Press. The greater part of each volume is devoted to four or five substantial essays on the history of the book, with emphasis on the period of transmission from manuscript to print. The main focus is on English and Continental works produced from 1350 to 1550. In addition, the journal includes brief notes on manuscripts and early printed books, descriptive reviews of recent works in the field, and notes on libraries and collections.
The Early Book Society was founded in 1987 to bring together all those who are interested in any aspect of the study of medieval and Renaissance manuscripts and early printed books. Since 1987, EBS has sponsored special sessions at the International Congress of Medieval Studies, Western Michigan University, and smaller conferences of related interest. EBS also runs an international conference.
