Abstract

A dated ms. is a handwritten book having at least one explicit reference to its origin (date and/or indication of the place where it was copied, the name of tthe scribe or of the artits who decorated it). These data, nornaly found in printed books, are rare in manuscripts. It is evident, therefore, that the catalogues incuding descriptions and photographs relating to these 'special' mss. are an indispensable tool even in comparative function for the study of all aspects of the book and the writing, not only for the codicologists and palaeographers, but even for anyone using the codicesc for researchs on the history of the texts, language, book decoration etc. The census and the cataloguing of dated mss. in Latin script in Italian libraries follow the lines of an international project launched in Paris in 1953 by the Comité international de paléographie latine (CIPL) and still active in many European countries. Twenty years after the resumption of the Italian initiative, with 27 volumes published in the 'Manoscritti datati d'Itlaia' series and over 3000 described codices, palaeographers, philologists, art historians reflect on the contribution that this kind of catalogues and manuscripts have given or can give to the knowledge of the medieval books and writings.
