Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from Bulletin du Bibliophile Et du Bibliothecaire, 1898, Vol. 65: Revue Mensuelle

Dans quelques couvents, on se servait deja de lettres a tige qu'on enduisait de matiere colorante et qu'on appliquait aux endroits reserves dans les manuscrits. Un savant italien a ecrit une dissertation (1) pour de montrer que ce procede qu'il denomme Chiratipogra fia c'est - a-dire impression a la main etait usite en Italie anterieurement au quinzieme s1ecle. On en a aussi des exemples en France. Deux manuscrits de l'abbaye de Vauclerc conserves a la Bibliotheque de Laon sous les N3 106 et 427, presentent cette particularite d'initiales en couleurs obtenues a l'aide de lettres mobiles en bois ou en metal, gravees a l'envers et en relief comme les caracteres d'imprimerie.
