  • Paleography and Codicology
    Paleography and Codicology: A Seminar on Medieval Manuscript Studies Instructor: Timothy C. Graham June 4-28, 2018 Institute for Medieval Studies University of New Mexico Albuquerque, NM 87131 Course content Providing a comprehensive orientation to the field of medieval manuscript studies, this seminar is targeted at graduate students and will also be of in- terest to junior faculty who wish to improve their background in the field. Over the four weeks of the seminar, participants will learn to recognize and read a broad range of medieval scripts and will receive a detailed in- troduction to the entire process of manuscript production, from the prepa- ration of parchment or paper through the stages of writing, decorating, correcting, and glossing the text to the binding and storage of the com- pleted codex. Medieval conventions of punctuation and abbreviation will receive special attention, as will specific genres of manuscripts, including Bibles, Books of Hours, maps, calendars, and rolls and scrolls. Partici- pants will also learn how to recognize and interpret the types of evidence that can help to establish a manuscript’s origin and provenance; they will receive a grounding in the conventions of manuscript cataloguing and an introduction to the science of textual editing. The seminar will focus on manuscripts written in Latin; a basic knowledge of Latin is therefore a prerequisite. Format The seminar will meet for formal sessions on four mornings of each week, Monday through Thursday, 9:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m. During the afternoons, the instructor will make himself available for consultation; he will also hold occasional workshops on specific topics and anticipates that partici- pants may wish to meet regularly for guided group transcription sessions.

  • Lieftinck Lectures
    Lieftinck Lectures Handwritten Text Recognition Meets the Crowd: Transcribe Bentham and tranScriptorium (22 April, 2015) Dr. Melissa Terras (University College London) The challenges for the automated reading of handwritten scripts, and for the computational recognition and transcription of archival material, are enormous. In this lecture, an example of hopeful advances in Pattern Recognition, Computer Vision, Document Image Analysis, Language Modelling, Digital Humanities, and Archival Research which are coming together to develop Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) will be presented: The European FP7 Funded tranScriptorium project. Central to its development has been the reuse of crowdsourced transcriptions from Transcribe Bentham: over 5 million words transcribed by volunteer labour provide a “ground truth” with which we can train computers to read handwriting. The lecture will cover the aims and development of the tranScriptorium project, and ask: what next for HTR as applied to archival manuscripts? For more information about Dr. Melissa Terras click here. Lieftinck Lectures are free and open to all. Please RSVP to Erik Kwakkel by 17 April. Rubricating History in Late Medieval France (16 May, 2014) Leiden University Library, 3-4 pm Dr. Godfried Croenen, University of Liverpool (Senior Lecturer in French Historical Studies) Most of the manuscripts produced in late medieval Paris, including the many with historiographical texts, contain a more or less complex system of textual divisions articulated partly by rubrics.

  • Copyrighted Material
    1 A Guide for the Perplexed HIS is a book about how to look at written and printed words, not as Ttexts, but as processes of communication in which meaning is made through the relationship between signs, structures, and materials. It has been written to complement the use of Gaskell, and to expand on those areas that were not covered in his book.1 In the following pages, the intention is both to explain the methods and processes that are used to describe and study early printed books and manuscripts, and to situate that understanding in a scholarly context in order that the insights so derived might be fruitfully employed. The focus will shift from broader narratives about the methods and ideas employed in bibliographical study to specific details and examples that serve to make a more general point. The illustrations have been chosen, where possible, with an eye to freshness. The hope is that those who wish to read this will be able to look at a book or manuscript and study the way in which it was made, the processes through which it may have evolved, and its history as reflected through the archival records as well as the evidence of its use. I When we look at the handwriting of someone that we do not know, we form an impression of their personality from their ‘character’. We may not do so consciously, but we sense handwriting to be unique and revealing. We perceive whether the script is open or tight; whether the forms are regular and disciplined, or whether majuscules and miniscules are mixed together.

  • Sandars Lectures 2007: Conversations with Maps
    SANDARS LECTURES 2007: CONVERSATIONS WITH MAPS Sarah Tyacke CB Lecture III: There are maps and there are maps – motives, markets and users As Christian Jacob put it ‘There are maps and there are maps’. More prosaically the nature of them depends on what you want the map or chart for and how you the reader perceive it? This third lecture is about what drove the cartographic activity internally and externally and how did it manifest itself in England and the rest of maritime Europe through its distributors, patrons and readers. This is probably the most challenging subject, first articulated in embryonic form as part of the history of cartography’s remit in the 1970s by David Woodward (as we saw in lecture I) and developed thereafter as the history of cartography took a ‘second turn’ and embraced social context. This ‘second turn’ challenged the inevitability of progress in cartography and understood that cartography was just as much a product of its society as other texts. In the case of Brian Harley he took this further arguing powerfully, from the examples he found, that in the early modern period with the rise of the nation state and European expansion ‘cartography was primarily a form of political discourse concerned with the acquisition and maintenance of power’ ( Imago Mundi 1988, 40 pp. 57-76). One might say the same of archives and libraries which spent (and do spend) their time ordering knowledge in the shape of books and manuscripts. In the case of a National Archives there is a clear explicit connection between the state and the archive; but even here within the archive and within the map there are other human elements at work as well, even subversive at least when it comes to interpreting them.

  • Chapter One Historiography and Sources
    CHAPTER ONE HISTORIOGRAPHY AND SOURCES Publications devoted to the writing of library history in the United States date from the 1950s but did not begin to appear with regularity until the latter stages of the 1970s. Articles on the "value of library history" have been produced by Jesse H. Shera (1952, 1.12), Haynes McMullen (1952, 1.11), Raymond Irwin (1958, 1.17), Louis Shores (1961, 1.26), and John C. Colson (1969, 1.44) and collectively constitute a genre in their own right. More traditional contributions reviewing and evaluating the literature stem from classic essays by Felix Reichmann ("Historical Research and Library Science," 1964, 1.29) and Sidney L. Jackson ("Materials for Teaching Library History in the U.S.A.," 1972, 1.76). These were followed by two fine articles on public library historiography by Sidney Ditzion and Francis Miksa, respectively (1973, 1.82; 1982, 1.139); overviews of the literature encompassing academic, public, and private libraries as well as key individuals and landmark publications by Shera (1973, 1.87) and Colson (1976, 1.100); general analyses of recent scholarship by David Kaser (1978, 1.121) and Lee Shiflett (1984, 1.145); and a statistical and analytical study of the historical monograph from 1975 to 1985 by Laurel A. Grotzinger (1986, 1.155). Thematic and methodological issues came under the scrutiny of Michael H. Harris (1975, 1.97; 1976, 1.105; 1986, 1.157), Elaine Fain (1979, 1.128), Wayne A. Wiegand (1983, 1.143), and Robert V. Williams (1984, 1.147). Interpretive concerns, in particular, dominated the writings of Harris, an avowed revisionist, and were featured with rejoinders in two issues of the Journal of Library History (vol.

  • Lyell Lectures –
    http://www.ucalgary.ca/hic • ISSN 1492-7810 2006 • Vol. 6, No. 1 McKitterick, David. Print, Manuscript and the Search for Order, 1450-1830. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2003. Pp. xv + 311; illus. CDN$60.00 (cloth). ISBN: 052182690X. Reviewed by Adrian Johns, University of Chicago David McKitterick, librarian at Trinity College, Cambridge, is one of the English‐speaking world’s leading historical bibliographers. Print, Manuscript and the Search for Order is based on his Lyell Lectures in Bibliography which he presented at Oxford in mid‐2000. It is a worthy contribution to a growing revisionist literature devoted to the history of print in the era between Gutenberg and full‐ scale industrialization. McKitterick’s target in this book is a notion of Gutenberg’s “printing revolution” that is widely shared, apparently intuitive, and hard to dislodge. It is the notion formalized in Elizabeth Eisenstein’s The Printing Press as an Agent of Change.1 Appearing in two volumes in 1979, Eisenstein’s work aimed to provide a survey of the effects of Gutenberg’s invention on high European culture — and hence, in effect, to explain its role in forging modernity itself. It succeeded remarkably well. From the premise that the press allowed people for the first time to produce documents that were substantially identical in huge quantities and at cheap prices, Eisenstein proceeded to argue that this elemental power fomented radical transformations in every field of life from religious experience to the technical sciences. It has become one of the most influential arguments in the history of intellectual culture in the last generation.
