Résumé
Theodore C. Peterson wrote 'Coptic Bookbindings in the Pierpont Morgan Library' between 1929 and 1950, but it remained unpublished until now. This seminal work describes the binding techniques and materials of a collection of early manuscripts at the Morgan Library & Museum (MLM). The collection consists of ninth- and tenth-century bindings of over fifty manuscripts discovered in 1910 in the Fayum Oasis in Egypt. The collection of Coptic manuscripts was purchased by J. Pierpont Morgan, Sr., in 1911. It remains the largest collection of Coptic manuscripts in a single location in the world.
