Prelucrarea informatizată a însemnărilor – un mijloc de cercetare modernă în istoria cărţii. Cazul Ţării Silvaniei (1624-1876) 

  • Subiect: Inserting and processing on a PC the holographic annotations found on the books which are in the present inventory (including those which are in other locations) of the 250 locations that were a part of the old Silvania County, almost the same beginning with 1542; mostly the annotations precisely dated (indicating at least the year), leads us to a series of statistics which can be interpreted with a great benefit for the understanding of the “dynamics” of the evolution of the parochial collections of the libraries on certain temporal sequences. Mainly, the database is built up on the corpus of the annotations tracked down in the Romanian books from the old Silvania County, both in researching the specialized catalogues from this region or those that describe books from other collections from our country, and also on my own researching on the field, in the diocesan book stacks or at the churches that still have their own book treasures. From all the 630 annotations that constitutes this corpus we have to mention that approximately 500, more than 80%, are edited dated between 1624 - 1876, each being “deconstructed” in a Microsoft Access form, composed of fields which also include more types of data. Generally the fields were established following the diplomatic structure of the annotations, to which was added the bibliographic data of the book. Thus, data types that composes the form are completed with extracts from annotations such as: the annotation itself, (the main field), author, the book title, the editing place, the year of the publication, the place where the book is held, binding, the date of the annotation, the place where the book was wrote, the price of the book, the donors, the witnesses, the colportage effect, the origin, the rhetorical style, name day, topos, the binding price, the colporteurs, “mentalities”, social identities, writing and reading, weathercast, insecurities, bibliography, “chronicles”. Starting from this initial table there were made a lot of queries after the majority of the columns, on the base of this queries there were made reports, which can be seen or printed. Thus in our case, among others, it had been done a statistic regarding the variation of the price of acquisition of the old Romanian book between 1624 - 1876, prices which can be ordered on works, printing centres; and also an estimation of the colportage effect (concept introduced by us in the specialized literature), as an example, an indicator of the rate of circulation and of the functional reading in Silvania County.
