Dalmatinova Biblija − struktura i konzervacija-restauracija

Juraj Dalmatin’s Bible from 1584 is the first Slovene translation of a complete Bible. It is the greatest achievement of the Reformation period in Slovenia. The book is a Slovene cultural monument of the highest category and is an extraordinary work, considering both the content and the material it was made of. The copy of the Dalmatin Bible presented and analyzed in this paper was in active use for a very long time, the proof of which are the severe signs of damage caused by frequent use and inappropriate storage in the past. The conservation-restoration intervention was necessary because both the text block and the binding were badly damaged. The main purpose of the intervention was to examine the structure and materials, conserve and restore the leaves of the text block, restore the binding and conserve as much as possible the originality of the book.Dalmatinova Biblija iz 1584. prvi je slovenski prijevod cjelokupne Biblije. Najveće je dostignuće razdoblja reformacije u Sloveniji. Knjiga je slovenski kulturni spomenik najviše kategorije i izvaredno je djelo s obzirom na sadržaj i s obzirom na materijal. Primjerak Dalmatinove Biblije kojim se bavi rad, dugo je vremena bio u aktivnoj uporabi, što su potvrdili brojni primjeri oštećenja uzorovanih čestom upotrebom i neodgovarajućom pohranom u prošlosti. Konzervatorsko-restauratorska intervencija bila je neophodna zbog znatnog oštećenja knjižnog bloka i uveza. Glavna svrha intervencije bila je ispitati stukturu i materijale, konzervirati i restaurirati listove knjižnog bloka, restaurirati uvez i konzervirati na što je dulje moguće izvornost knjige
