Excerpt from Palaeography: And the Practical Study of Court Hand
His pamphlet is, with very little revision, a Paper read to Section IX of the International Congress of Historical Studies in April, 1913. I have not thought proper to alter it in any essential and that fact has, to some extent, conditioned its form; leading me, for instance, to confine my remarks upon Diplomatique to a paragraph and a footnote. It represents the ideas which have made me depart considerably from the usually adopted form of teaching preliminary to research upon medieval manuscript sources, during the three series of lectures and classes which I have given for the F. W. Maitland Memorial Trustees at Cambridge. But apart from this the importance of the series of documents which illustrate it made me anxious to print it.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the world of medieval English documents, exploring the essential role of palaeography ââ â the study of ancient handwriting ââ â in understanding these historical treasures. The author argues that while palaeography is undoubtedly valuable, its significance has been overstated, particularly when it comes to deciphering the vast and complex collection of records known as Court Hand. Instead, the author champions the often-neglected field of administrative history as the key to unlocking the secrets of Court Hand. By understanding the intricacies of medieval government and the practices of the various courts and administrative bodies, researchers can gain invaluable insights into the context, purpose, and meaning of these documents. Through a meticulous examination of different types of Court Hand documents, including charters, enrolments, and miscellaneous records, the author reveals the diverse range of writing styles and the challenges they present to palaeographers. The book challenges the notion that palaeography alone can provide definitive answers to questions of dating and authorship, highlighting the importance of considering historical context and administrative practices. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the intricate relationship between palaeography and administrative history, offering a fresh perspective on the study of medieval English documents. By emphasizing the significance of administrative context, the author provides researchers with a powerful tool for navigating the complexities of Court Hand and gaining a deeper understanding of England's rich medieval past.
