Scope of COMSt (ABa) 1.1. The background of COMSt Work with manuscripts in both an academic, i.e. scholarly, and a non-academic context involves a huge number of aspects to be considered. It has not been a goal of the COMSt project to work on a theoretical definition of the manuscript, namely to define what a manuscript is. Instead of such a theoretical and com- parative typological approach, the object of COMSt was, right from the beginning, manuscript studies as a conglomeration of already existing disciplines spread among various fields that were to be put in dialogue with each other. For the sake of convenience, a recent definition might be provided as a starting point here, according to which a ‘book’ is ‘a transportable object intended for hosting, sharing and transmitting immediately readable contents in an ordered and lasting way’ (Andrist et al. 2013, 46, my translation). The focus of the COMSt handbook, however, is on a peculiar subtype of the ‘book’, namely handwritten book forms of the codex area, including the horizontal and vertical roll and rotulus, all of them seen in their historical development in a definite historical and geographical area here styled ‘oriental’ (see be- low).

  • Sephardic Book Art of the Fifteenth Century
    66 Conference reports During the final discussion, chaired by M. Delhey, it emerged that both collections and MTMs can be ordered either according to material/formal cri- teria or according to criteria of contents. Lists do not necessarily follow the order of the manuscripts or texts they are listing. This may have practical reasons (e.g. alphabetical arrangement), but it can also reflect a different way of structuring the contents than can be seen in their actual spatial arrangement in a collection or within a single manuscript. Lists are often our only ways to reconstruct the content of dismembered collections or lost MTMs. But the information they can give us is not as straightforward, and not as limited. On the one hand, lists can be an incomplete or unreliable witness for the contents of collections. On the other hand, they can also give us more information than the collections themselves, for instance regarding the history of the collection or, again, regarding the conceptual arrangement of the collection. Moreover, it became clear during the discussion that the implications of the term ‘com- posite manuscripts’ can be very different depending on the writing support and manuscript culture to which it is applied. Finally, the choice of texts in a MTM can become very arbitrary, if it is not mainly intended to be read or studied. The best example for this fact was presented by G. Hidas, who found several instances of manuscripts mainly produced for apotropaic purposes, where one and the same text appears several times within one and the same MTM.

In addition to the use and dissemination of printed books, newspapers etc., book culture denotes manuscript media and the circulation of written documents of oral tradition in and through the archive, into published collections. Book culture also intertwines the process of framing and defining oral genres Oral Tradition and Book and Culture Oral Tradition with literary interests and ideologies. The present volume is highly relevant to anyone interested in oral cultures and their relationship to the culture of writing and publishing. Oral Tradition The questions discussed include the following: How have printing and book publishing set terms for oral tradition scholarship? How have the practices of reading affected the circulation of oral traditions? Which and Book Culture books and publishing projects have played a key role in this and how? How have the written representations of oral traditions, as well as the Edited by roles of editors and publishers, introduced authorship to materials Pertti Anttonen, Cecilia af Forselles and Kirsti Salmi-Niklander customarily regarded as anonymous and collective?

  • Robert Shay (University of Missouri)
    Manuscript Culture and the Rebuilding of the London Sacred Establishments, 1660- c.17001 By Robert Shay (University of Missouri) The opportunity to present to you today caused me to reflect on the context in which I began to study English music seriously. As a graduate student in musicology, I found myself in a situation I suspect is rare today, taking courses mostly on Medieval and Renaissance music. I learned to transcribe Notre Dame polyphony, studied modal theory, and edited Italian madrigals, among other pursuits. I had come to musicology with a background in singing and choral conducting, and had grown to appreciate—as a performer—what I sensed were the unique characteristics of English choral music of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It was a seminar on the stile antico that finally provided an opportunity to bring together earlier performing and newer research interests. I had sung a few of Henry Purcell’s polyphonic anthems (there really are only a few), liked them a lot, and wondered if they were connected to earlier music by Thomas Tallis, William Byrd, and others, music which I soon came to learn Purcell knew himself. First for the above-mentioned seminar and then for my dissertation, I cast my net broadly, trying to learn as much as I could about Purcell and his connections to earlier English music. I quickly came to discover that the English traditions were, in almost every respect, distinct from the Continental ones I had been studying, ranging from how counterpoint was taught (or not taught) 1 This paper was delivered at a March 2013 symposium at Western Illinois University with the title, “English Cathedral Music and the Persistence of the Manuscript Tradition.” The present version includes some subsequent revisions and a retitling that I felt more accurately described the paper.

Making Sense as a Cultural Practice Mainz Historical Cultural Sciences | Volume 18 Editorial The Mainzer Historische Kulturwissenschaften [Mainz Historical Cultural Sciences] series publishes the results of research that develops methods and theories of cultural sciences in connection with empirical research.

Amongst other, the series brings together research approaches in archaeology, art history, visual studies, literary studies, philosophy, and history, and is open for contributions on the history of knowledge, political culture, the history of perceptions, experiences and life-worlds, as well as other fields of research with a historical cultural scientific orientation. The objective of the Mainzer Historische Kulturwissenschaften series is to be- come a platform for pioneering works and current discussions in the field of historical cultural sciences.

  • Christian Manuscript Culture of the Ethiopian- Eritrean Highlands: Some Analytical Insights
    chapter 11 Christian Manuscript Culture of the Ethiopian- Eritrean Highlands: Some Analytical Insights Denis Nosnitsin 1 Introduction In recent years the study of Christian Ethiopian manuscript culture has made significant progress.1 A number of research and digitization projects were ac- complished in a period when field research was freely possible in Ethiopia; at the same time, Ethiopic manuscript studies became better connected to the disciplines dealing with other manuscript traditions. Research topics com- mon in modern manuscript studies are increasingly being applied to Ethiopic manuscript material. The outcome of these developments can be seen in a number of recent publications ranging from manuscript catalogues to chap- ters in collective volumes, which will remain seminal works for a number of 1 The present study was carried out within the framework of the long-term project “Beta maṣāḥəft: Manuscripts of Ethiopia and Eritrea,” funded by the Academy of Sciences and Humanities in Hamburg (https://www.betamasaheft.uni-hamburg.de/). A large part of the material used was collected and catalogued in the course of the project Ethio-SPaRe: Cultural Heritage of Christian Ethiopia – Salvation, Preservation, and Research, headed by myself and funded by the European Research Council under the 7th Research Framework Programme IDEAS (Independent Researcher Starting Grant 240720, December 2009– May 2015). Descriptions of those manuscripts can be found in the database of Ethio-SPaRe (to be later incorporated in the “Beta maṣāḥəft” database).
