A few weeks ago, a colleague asked me for help dating a medieval document long considered a forgery. Yes, a forgery—but one with a precise date: the year 1033. And yet no one had ever asked: what if that date actually matches the likely time it was produced? 👇 #MssStudies
Do sign up for this course!! If I were in London I wouldn't miss it (if it were online, I'd be the first to sign up!)
Ana de Oliveira Dias@ana0dias.bsky.social · last yr.Training in early Frankish palaeography is not just for those working on this period, it will help you understand Late Roman, Carolingian, and Protogothic scripts& to approach cursive writing from later centuries too. It’s a doorway to many centuries of Latin palaeography! #medievalsky #manuscripts
The framing of palaeography as a challenge to be overcome rather than a useful skill and a joyful exercise is concerning and devalues both this critical ability and of historical research work generally.
Very much looking forward to this residential workshop on The Parish #Church in #Medieval Smaland (Sweden). I've been invited to share comparative insights from my research on medieval England and Wales, including especially www.thomasway.ac.uk. Lots of interest to @chppc.bsky.social too!
