Between Lines and Notarial Marks - Documentation Sciences in rebuilding the past

As an essential contribution to the study of History in its various aspects, this book demonstrates the importance of sciences such as Palaeography, Diplomatics, Sigillography, and Codicology in understanding the societies of the past and their articulation with the future, by using current tools through the Digital Humanities. In Between Lines and Notarial Marks: Documentation Sciences in rebuilding the past, we are able to gain a better understanding of the past through these sciences, each with its own specific scope of analysis, demonstrating clearly how interdisciplinarity can be beneficial to writing history.
But we have achieved more: we have understood the importance that these sciences have in archives and teaching today, and the challenges that the Digital Humanities represent for each of them and for the production of knowledge about the past, in a truly international analysis.
