The Codex and Crafts in Late Antiquity examines surviving evidence in order to better understand how this transition took place. Placing the codex into the general cultural, religious, and technological context of Late Antiquity, the book examines the major types of codices--the wooden tablet codex, the single-quire codex and the multi-quire codex--in all their structural, technical, and decorative features. Georgios Boudalis argues that the codex was not an ingenious invention but rather an innovation that evolved using techniques already widely employed by artisans and craftspeople in the creation of everyday items such as socks, shoes, and baskets, revealing that the codex was a fascinating, yet practical, development"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a The innovation of the codex in late antiquity -- The wooden tablet codex -- The single gathering codex -- The multigathering codex : an introduction -- Sewing the gatherings -- Boards and their attachment -- Spine linings -- Endbands -- Covers and their decoration -- Fastenings -- Bookmarks and board corner straps. 650 0 $a Books $z Byzantine Empire $x History $y To 400 $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Books $z Byzantine Empire $x History $y 400-1450 $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Manuscripts, Byzantine $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Bookbinding, Medieval $z Byzantine Empire $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Byzantine antiquities $v Exhibitions. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Archaeology. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / Ancient / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Bookbinding, Medieval. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00836307 650 7 $a Books. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00836401 650 7 $a Byzantine antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00843224 650 7 $a Manuscripts, Byzantine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01894473 651 7 $a Byzantine Empire. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01209292 648 7 $a To 1450 $2 fast 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210105035614.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214013202.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=74C6E56C840911E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
