Paperback. Condition: New. This book, first published in 2003, presents a detailed survey of all book scripts in use in western and central Europe from c.1100 to c.1530 (with the exception of Humanistic script). This period has been poorly served in almost all other palaeographical handbooks. By adopting a largely new classification of scripts based on objective criteria, which incorporates many of the terms currently in use, this book aims to end the confusion which has hitherto obscured the study of late-medieval handwriting. It is based upon an examination of a very large number of dated specimens, and is thus the first survey to take full advantage of the incomparable palaeographical resource provided by the Catalogues of Dated Manuscripts. The text is illustrated throughout with 600 drawings of letters and symbols. There are 160 actual-size reproductions providing datable specimens of all the scripts discussed, accompanied by partial transcriptions and palaeographical commentary.…

Condition: very good. Turnhout : Brepols, 1979. Paperback. 71 pp. (Typologie des sources du Moyen Âge occidental. A. Sources écrités. V : Sources de l'histoire de la pensée. A : Sources de portée générale. Fasc. 31). French text. - This study provides a concise yet authoritative overview of medieval library catalogues as historical sources. Focusing on their typology, structure, and transmission, Derolez analyzes how these documents reflect the intellectual life, institutional priorities, and textual circulation of the Middle Ages. He classifies different catalogue formats - such as inventories, shelf lists, and thematic arrangements - and explores their significance for understanding the organization of knowledge and the evolution of medieval scholarship. Written at a time of growing interest in the history of the book and manuscript studies, the work emphasizes catalogues as tools not only for reconstructing lost libraries but also for tracing educational and monastic networks. Derolez's meticulous approach helped establish foundational methodologies for codicology and library history, making the fascicle an essential reference for scholars of medieval learning and cultural transmission.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. 8vo (24.5 cm), xxi, 203 pp., 160 plates. Publisher's laminated wrappers (minor shelf wear). Cambridge Studies in Palaeography and Codicology, 9. Widely regarded as the standard modern reference on Gothic book scripts, and the first comprehensive synthesis of all Gothic book hands employed in Western and Central Europe from the twelfth to the early sixteenth century (excluding Humanistic script). Written by the distinguished Belgian palaeographer Albert Derolez (b. 1938), long associated with the manuscript collections of the Ghent University Library and internationally recognized for his contributions to codicology, manuscript studies, and the history of libraries, the work fills a major gap in palaeographical scholarship by establishing a new and more objective classification of Gothic scripts, substantially revising and expanding the influential Lieftinck system. Drawing upon an exceptionally large corpus of securely dated manuscripts--particularly the evidence assembled in the Catalogues of Dated Manuscripts--Derolez provides a systematic survey of the evolution and regional varieties of Gothic script between c.1100 and c.1530. The ten chapters examine the medieval manuscript book; the Carolingian heritage; Praegothica; Northern Textualis; Southern Textualis and Semitextualis (with separate treatment of Italy, Iberia, southern France, and other regions); cursive scripts in general; Cursiva Antiquior, including Anglicana; Cursiva; Hybrida and Semihybrida; and Gothico-Antiqua together with scripts falling outside the expanded Lieftinck framework. An extensive appendix discusses majuscule forms, punctuation, abbreviations, special signs, and orthographical practices. Richly illustrated with 160 plates, and supplemented by bibliography, indexes of manuscripts, and a general index, the volume has been praised as both an authoritative reference work and an exceptionally practical training manual for the identification and classification of medieval scripts. It remains an indispensable resource for palaeographers, codicologists, manuscript cataloguers, medieval historians, and scholars of the book.…
