The names of the donors are listed in the manuscript file on this platform and in the Catalogue of Italian Manuscripts (MANUS Online MANUS Online). Once the restoration of the codex is complete, a final event will take place in which donors and all contributors will be invited to participate.
Un ringraziamento speciale a chi ha voluto sostenere sinora le nostre attività di ricerca e restauro.
Tra i primi a finanziare progetti di tutela il Prof. Valter Mainetti della Fondazione Sorgente Group a partire dal 2012. In anni più recenti la professoressa Mirella Saulini, studiosa di teatro gesuitico, ha contribuito al restauro di numerosi codici del XVI-XVII secolo; Cope ha donato una bibbia poliglotta dei primi del Cinquecento appartenuta alla sua famiglia per generazioni e recentemente Maria Amparo Calamai ha finanziato la diagnostica e il restauro di un codice di spiritualità realizzato al Collegio Romano.
Tra le istituzioni universitarie la School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon che ha finanziato il progetto di valorizzazione del codice inedito della Clavis prophetarum di Antonio Vieira.
All'interno delle attività di fundraising si realizzano visite a pagamento. Il contributo raccolto viene interamente finalizzato alle attività di conservazione e restauro del Laboratorio di diagnostica e restauro dell'APUG.
Special thanks to those who have supported our research and restoration activities to date.
Among the first to fund conservation projects was Prof. Valter Mainetti of the Sorgente Group Foundation in 2012. In more recent years, Professor Mirella Saulini, a scholar of Jesuit theatre, has contributed to the restoration of numerous codices from the 16th-17th centuries; Cope donated a polyglot bible from the early 16th century that had belonged to her family for generations; recently, Maria Amparo Calamai financed the diagnostics and restoration of a spirituality codex at the Collegio Romano.
Among the university institutions is the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon, which financed the project to enhance the unpublished codex of Antonio Vieira's Clavis prophetarum.
Fundraising activities include paid visits. Every contribution collected is used for the conservation and restoration activities of the Diagnostic and Restoration Laboratory of the APUG.
Why donate?
The conservation and preservation of historical memory is not one of the 'emergencies', real or putative, that occupy the headlines. Nevertheless, the material loss or impossibility of consulting a manuscript - a unique object that can never be reproduced in its entirety - entails damage that is difficult to underestimate: a piece of history disappears forever.
Our aim is to prevent the interruption of the material transmission of centuries-old knowledge that has reached us and for which we are responsible.
In order to cope with a large number of unique documents that are in a poor state of preservation, the APUG strongly advocated the installation of an in-house restoration lab. Given the scope of the work, as much help as possible is needed. Thanks to institutional donations and the generosity of small donors, numerous codices have been saved over the past few years.
The Archivio Storico of PUG understands the valorisation of its fonds as a complex process in which practices such as daily and preventive conservation, cataloguing, special treatments for the partial or total consolidation of codices, the eventual restoration of the document, up to the putting online of the digitised manuscript to allow both critical study and scientific dissemination.
The Historical Archive of the WYP conceives its work as a complex process in which practices such as daily and preventive conservation, cataloguing, special treatments for partial or total consolidation of the manuscripts, the eventual restoration of the document, up to the putting online of the digitised manuscript to allow both critical study and scientific dissemination are linked.
How to Contribute
- Conservation treatments: 200 euro for work on the binding to 3,000 euro for the restoration of a particularly complex codex.
- Digital conversion and publication in GATE: 800 euros per manuscript and 15 euros per letter (for Correspondence projects)
These costs are indicative for outline interventions. If you wish to participate in a complete enhancement project, the benefactor will be invited to a presentation in which the costs will be detailed.

In the course of almost 10 years of work, numerous interventions have been carried out. Here are the most significant ones:
- two volumes of the correspondence of Cristoforo Clavius and Galileo Galilei (APUG 529 and APUG 530). Together with other codices in the archive, some letters were presented on the occasion of the exhibition Magistri astronomiae from the 16th to the 19th century: Cristoforo Clavius, Galileo Galilei and Angelo Secchi;
- drawings of obelisks and three unpublished codices by Athanasius Kircher;
- Bernardino Stefonio’s theatrical works;
- the almost 6,000 letters of correspondence of the scientist Angelo Secchi;
- the Clavis prophetarum of Antonio Vieira
- the unpublished manuscript Notae in Genesim (APUG 385b) by Roberto Bellarmino.
- the spiritual manuscript of Girolamo Benci (XVI sec.) F.C. 1000
