It combines the virtues of a relational database and network analysis visualization tools in the interest of pursuing this dual goal. Each entry links a book and its various components (dedications, marginalia, translations) to documents, such as inquisition trials or censorship decrees, illustrating reading modalities and appropriations, as well as to the geographical movement of Iberian refugees associated with the said book.
