About this title

Synopsis

This scholarly book delves into the intricate world of Byzantine scribes and the manuscripts they meticulously created. It investigates the social, cultural and religious contexts that shaped the lives and works of these scribes, who played a crucial role in preserving the literary and theological heritage of Classical Greece and the Byzantine Empire. Through an in-depth analysis of various manuscripts, the book sheds light on the scribal practices, calligraphic styles and the materials used in manuscript production. It also explores the transmission of texts, the influence of patronage and the interaction between scribes and their contemporary intellectual milieus. This comprehensive study is a valuable resource for academics, historians, biblical scholars and anyone interested in the legacy of Byzantine literary culture.
