Learning outcomes

The module intends to enable the attending students to date, read, interpret and examine the main forms of manuscript testimonies in the Latin alphabet (libraries, documentaries, epigraphs) of the classical age, the late antique, the Middle Ages and the early modern age.

Program

The course will focus the history of the handwritings in Latin script between 6th century D.C. and 15th century A.D.

Knowledges in latin classics, roman history and medieval history are useful for attendance.

Reference books:
a) A. PETRUCCI, Breve storia della scrittura latina, Roma, Bagatto Libri, 1989;
b) P. CHERUBINI, La scrittura latina: storia, forme, usi, Roma, Carocci Editore, 2019 (Bussole, 589);

In any case the chosen book has to be integrated with A. PETRUCCI, Prima lezione di paleografia, Roma-Bari, Laterza, 2002 (Universale Laterza, 811)

Special schedules for not regular attenders have to be drawn with the teacher.
