*Manutius Network 2015*
Few printers have contributed as much to the advancement of the humanist
book as *Aldus Manutius* (c. 1451 - 1515). His *family press* was active
in Venice, Bologna and Rome for over a century, from 1494 to 1598. Its
publications have been collected and studied up to the present day as
milestones in the development of Western civilisation. *Manutius Network
2015* is a website dedicated to the *events* for the celebrations of the *fifth
centenary* of Aldus’s death. The aim is to provide a comprehensive picture
of the *conferences, seminars and exhibitions* in honour of Aldus, the
Aldine press and its books taking place throughout the world. *Organisers* are
warmly invited to share details of their events and seize the opportunity
for publicizing them and for collaborating with colleagues across the
globe. The project is developed under the auspices of the *CERL.*
