Senior Lecturer in Classics at the University of Bristol. Interested in manuscripts, literature, movies and (good) TV-series. Opinions are my own.
I didn't mean to imply that purchasing MS and early-printed books is illegal. I'm simply interested in the areas where these items are migrating.

I wonder who buys these early printed books & MS fragments. I remember listening to an interview with the Italian police talking about stolen artifacts sold illegally, and they were saying that the main markets are now in the East (esp. Dubai and China).

Always inverse Cramer.

Thank you so much, Ben! Also on Laura's behalf.

The parties that can tap more into fear and pain will probably emerge victorious. And it’s always easier to pick on specific groups and marginalise them (e.g. migrants) rather than pointing fingers at the magnates whose decisions influence the markets.
