Abstract
ABSTRACT Art in Translation (AIT, www.artintranslation.org) is a quarterly e-journal that publishes scholarly art historical texts in English translation. Issue 13.4 (2021) features four texts about parchment and marks AIT’s inaugural foray into technical art history. The works, authored between the eighteenth and twentieth centuries, were penned by authors possessing either comprehensive theoretical knowledge or direct practical experience. The selection of texts was informed by conservation and biocodicology experts. The translations were completed by Gay McAuley, Caroline Danforth, and Andrew Griebeler with considerable feedback and assistance from a variety of experts. Collectively, these translations make fascinating and significant works about parchment’s history, manufacture, and use more accessible for generations to come.
