A number of libraries
across Europe collaborate to make this spectacular Europeana online exhibit
that "virtually reconstruct[s] the exceptional royal libraries of the
Carolingian emperors, Charles V of France, and the Aragonese Kings of
Naples." For each of these three libraries, visitors can explore an essay
accompanied by digitized images from some of the books held in these libraries.
For example, in the Library of Charles V and Family, visitors will find images
from the Grandes Chroniques de France, a book that was "especially made
for King Charles V, who almost certainly supervised its production."
Meanwhile, in the Bibliotheca Carolina section, visitors can examine the Capitulare
de Villis, a ninth century manuscript that is "the only surviving written
exemplar both of Pope Leo III's letters to Charlemagne and of the famous
capitulary (collection of instructions) Capitulare de villis, thought to have
been issued by Charlemagne." In addition to the three sections dedicated
to the libraries, this exhibit also includes a section that explains medieval
bookbinding and book arts.
