Highly recommend this! I took several paleography and codicology courses through IES early in my PhD and they were excellent!
I know no-one wants to think about next term right now, but please remind students to book their places on the Latin palaeography online short courses at beginner or intermediate level taking place in February 👇 #MedievalSky 📖🧑💻👩💻👨🏽💻👩🏻💻🧑🏿💻🧑💻 📚

I'll reframe my earlier Kermit-flail over this ruling and ask instead: can people think of other examples of script being written right down the middle of the ruled line, as in the detail pic here, instead of sitting on it, floating above it, or hanging from it? #paleography #codicology #medievalsky
NBD, just hanging out with the Cathach, @rialibrary.bsky.social MS 12 R 33 dating to 560-600 AD and the oldest extant Irish manuscript of the Latin Psalter 🤩📜

The textbook will focus on comparative codicology, paleography, art history, literate culture, and the post-medieval lives of manuscripts from Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions, with case studies from each appearing through the volume.

No one can unconvince me that the study of paleography and codicology greatly enhances ones understanding of history and the transmission of ideas. Any history student should try to read 12th century handwriting at least once. And hold in their hands an 800 year old manuscript.

I have been working with a student on English paleography (mostly secretary hands), alchemy, and codicology all semester, and it was only yesterday, as I was working through some weird Greek and Hebrew in an alchemy text, that they became aware that I am a cryptid Europeanist.

Interestingly the Bobbio Missal *is* ruled, the scribe just doesn't care. Each line of writing does more or less end between two prickings, but it doesn't seem to occur to the scribe to use the ruled lines to establish a baseline.

This is a tiny book, which gives me a chance to introduce a new feature: #ComparedtoCappelli! The Bobbio Missal is approximately 3 ¾" wide and 7 ¼" tall. That's an inch narrower than Cappelli and just a little bit taller. #paleography #codicology
