La historia del papel en la Castilla medieval: el archivo de la Catedral y la judería de Burgos en el siglo XIV

A significant shift from parchment to paper as the primary writing material occurred in Late Medieval Castile, with Burgos Cathedral's archive revealing the pivotal role of its Jewish Quarter as a hub for 'Hispano-Arabic' paper production. This study highlights how, by the 14th century, paper became dominant, while imported French paper also circulated, reflecting strong commercial and political ties between Castile and southern France. The research leveraged Burgos Cathedral's extensive documentation to trace the evolution of paper manufacturing, distribution, and use in medieval Spain.
