This Workshop also aims to provide an overview of the development of research on illuminated legal manuscripts in Europe, with the aim of reflecting on the methodological implications and the practical and theoretical challenges that this research entails. During this scientific event, different case studies related to some regions of the European territory will be analysed through an interdisciplinary approach to overcome limits and open innovative and fruitful research avenues.
