Ljudmila Petkovic et al., « Katabase: À la recherche des manuscripts vendus », HAL-SHS : histoire, ID : 10670/1.yem26c
Databases exist for paintings, sculptures, drawings... circulating on the private market, but not for manuscripts. Such a tool being useful for scholars cataloguing sources or studying the reception of authors, we have designed an online application able not only to display sold items, but to reconcile several entries of a similar item sold multiple times. The algorithm developed for this reconciliation should open new horizons to those interested in the manuscript market, like economic historians.
