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!)
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!

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!

A rare example of a 12th C (catalogue calls it, I think a bit earlier) punctus interrogativus, or question mark. The clause starts 2 lines from the bottom, on the right "Petre amas me?"
