This course is aimed at those who attended the previous week’s Introduction to palaeography and who want to gain more practice in transcription. It is also open to students with some experience in Latin palaeography who wish to refresh or improve their skills. As well as intensive reading practice, participants will gain a feel for the variety of scripts coexisting in the last centuries of the Middle Ages. They will acquire useful tools and techniques for deciphering difficult handwriting of any kind.
Participants must have at least elementary Latin in order to benefit from the course. It would be useful if they could indicate what previous experience of palaeography they have when applying.
This short course is part of the London International Palaeography School
