Programma

The course aims to address the study of Latin and Greek scripts of ancient, late antique, medieval and early modern times, with particular regard to their value for historical and philological studies. In this regard, both book and document scripts will be examined, illustrating the genesis and historical events of all the main Greek and Latin scripts (also in their use in vernacular manuscripts). The module aims to provide an advanced preparation in the analysis of scripts, accompanied by historical and cultural knowledge useful for the correct interpretation of manuscript testimonies.
This course includes both the examination of reproductions of codices and documents and the direct examination of manuscripts through visits to archives and libraries. Knowledge of classical languages is recommended, but not mandatory. An appointment with the lecturer is necessary for any special cases.
