Latin Paleography


Credits: 12
Content language:Italian
Course description
The course illustrates the evolutions and the tendencies of the graphic forms assumed by the Latin alphabet, from its origins in the archaic age to the XVth century. After the invention of the press and of the mobile characters, the history of the evolution of the signs ends. The Latin Palaeography studies therefore the transformations of the signs and the handwritings performed by hand, the only one possible. For this reason, it is the object of a specific meaningful "history".
