Abstract
El presente trabajo recoge el estudio y propuesta de intervención de un libro impreso a finales del siglo XVI, fabricado con papel de trapos y dotado de una encuadernación flexible de pergamino. Dicha obra forma parte del Fondo Antiguo de la Biblioteca Histórica “Marqués de Valdecilla”.
La particularidad de este ejemplar reside en su historia material, ya que fue empleado como parapeto en los enfrentamientos por la toma de Madrid que tuvieron lugar en Ciudad Universitaria durante la Guerra Civil. Como consecuencia de este uso, la obra estuvo expuesta a numerosos factores de alteración que ocasionaron múltiples deterioros en los elementos constituyentes, representativos en el campo del material bibliográfico. El estudio de los mismos se ha realizado a partir de un análisis organoléptico. No obstante, ha sido necesario el planteamiento de análisis específicos para obtener información más detallada. En estos casos, se ha contado con la colaboración interdisciplinar para determinar la metodología a seguir.
Los criterios de intervención que determinan las fases a desempeñar se han establecido a partir de la legislación de la comunidad autónoma a la que pertenece la obra y las publicaciones específicas existentes sobre documento gráfico. De esta manera, los tratamientos a efectuar se rigen por el criterio de mínima intervención, buscando como fin la estabilización de la obra, y no, como ha sido frecuente a lo largo de la Historia, la devolución del bien a su estado primigenio.
Finalmente, se han recopilado una serie de recomendaciones y medidas de conservación preventiva, enfocadas a prolongar la existencia del libro.
The present essay includes the study and intervention proposal of a book printed at the end of the 16th century, made with rag paper and endowed with a flexible parchment binding. The mentioned work belongs to the Antique Fund of the "Marqués de Valdecilla" Historical Library. The specimen peculiarity lies in its material history, since it was used as a bulwark in the confrontations over the capture of Madrid that took place in Ciudad Universitaria during the Civil War. As a result of this use, the work was exposed to numerous alteration factors which caused multiple damages in the components, representative in the bibliographic material field. The study of these has been carried out on the basis of an organoleptic analysis. However, specific analysis have been required in order to obtain more detailed information. In these cases, interdisciplinary collaboration has been used to determine the methodology to be followed. The intervention criteria that determine the phases to be performed during the restoration have been established based on the legislation of the autonomous community to which the work belongs and the specific existing publications on graphic document. Thus, the treatments to be accomplished are guided by the minimum intervention criterion, pursuing as a goal the work stabilization, and not -as it has been usual throughout History- the return of the property to its original state. Finally, a series of recommendations and preventive conservation measures have been compiled, aimed at prolonging the book lifespan.
