Books of Science.
Vernacular Mathematics and Medicine Books
in Fourteenth-Century Italy
Books of Science is an interdisciplinary and pioneering project at the crossroads of several disciplines: Palaeography, Codicology, Philology and Linguistics. The idea that underpins the project is to use every piece of evidence from manuscript books, in order to investigate the transmission of two branches of vernacular scientific knowledge, i.e., mathematics and medicine, in fourteenth-century Italy.
