Introduction

Aims, Sources and Methodologies: An Interdisciplinary International Project on Collecting, Indexing and Sharing the Early Modern Illustrated Book Printed in Lyon

Abstract

The book offers an insight on the collection of Renaissance printed illustrations gathered and analysed during the project Le livre illustré à Lyon (1480-1600). The project was funded by the Equipex Biblissima (CNRS), which had the Bibliothèque Municipale de Lyon, the Centre Gabriel Naudé and Centre d’Études Supérieures de la Renaissance in Tours as établissements porteurs at different stages of the project, and it cooperated with the CIHAM, the IHRIM, the ENSSIB, the Warburg Institute and the Bodleian Libraries during the years of research.
