Bibliothèques des collecteurs pontificaux en territoire angevin (1316–1422) - The Libraries of the Papal Collectors in the Angevin Territory (1316–1422)

Abstract

The two pontifical collectors’ culture who worked in the ecclesiastical provinces of Tours and Provence between 1316 and 1422 is known by their library. It is delicate to use this small specimen to determinate the Angevin collectors’ culture, but it is very useful to understand that these libraries were at the same time the tools of the legal work and signs of a larger intellectual curiosity as well.
