This book focuses mainly on cartularies in the strict sense of the term, mostly produced within the ecclesiastical sphere. Moreover, some of the contributions presented here examine documentary collections in volume form that cannot be properly identified with the libri iurium et privilegiorum as traditionally understood but were, equally, born out of the need to organise the parchment charters that formed the archives of their creators and to make them usable for various purposes. It is therefore our hope that, despite the diversity of the cases examined and approaches employed, this volume will be of use not only to those who are currently engaged in the study of cartularies but also to researchers who are involved in the broader investigation of how and to what ends medieval institutions established and managed their archival memories.
