4th Session | 3rd Cycle of International and Interdisciplinary Webinars: “Dialogues of Art, History, and Law”

The 4th Session will take place on June 21, 2024, at 4:30 pm, via the Zoom platform.

Dedicated to the theme “Legal Manuscripts of Iceland between History and Non-invasive Analysis of Miniatures”, this session will be coordinated by Silvia Faccin (Biblioteca Capitolare di Vercelli), will feature communications by Giulia Zorzan (University of Iceland) and Maurizio Aceto (Universitá degli Studi del Piedmonte Orientale).

The 3rd Cycle of International and Interdisciplinary Webinars: “Dialogues of Art, History, and Law” is organized by the Institute of Medieval Studies (IEM- NOVA/FCSH), together with the IUS ILLUMINATUM research team and in partnership with the Portuguese Heraldic Institute (IPH), the Verona Chapter Library and the Vercelli Chapter Library.

This initiative, organized by a scientific and organizational committee, comprises members of the IUS ILLUMINATUM research team (coordinated by researcher Maria Alessandra Bilotta, PI of the team).

The aim is to establish a fruitful dialogue between different scientific disciplines, namely Art History, History, and History of Law, necessary to study illuminated legal manuscripts and documents.

It is also intended to facilitate synergies between different areas of knowledge and disseminate the results of its research to a broader audience. Maintaining scientific rigor to promote the importance of an interdisciplinary approach in studying medieval manuscripts and legal documents, we also want to draw attention to the importance of conserving this heritage.
