Abstract
Since September 2025, I have been working on the reconstruction of the library collection of the Benedictine Monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore, in Venice, which was dispersed following the Napoleonic secularization at the beginning of the nineteenth century. This research is part of a doctoral project funded by the Italian government (PNRR), which began in 2022 under the joint doctoral programme of the University of Padua and Ca’ Foscari Venice, under the supervision of Paola Molino (University of Padua) and Flavia De Rubeis (Ca’ Foscari Venice).
