Résumé
Selecting and excerpting, summarizing and canonizing, arranging texts and visual signs in manuscripts appear to be universal practices. This volume analyses the fascinating vicissitudes of birth and development, growth and decrease, of manuscripts carrying one or more texts ("multiple-text manuscripts"), at the example of a vast array of manuscript cultures, from the Indian, African, Christian, Islamic, and European domains.
