Training school in codicology
Training school in codicology
Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, 29 April ? 3 May 2013
A five-day intensive training school in codicology organised under the auspices of COST Action IS 1005, ?Medioevo Europeo: Medieval Studies and Technological Resources?. Codicology, the study of manuscript books as material objects, is an important discipline within manuscript studies. Topics covered will include writing materials, formats and layout, with particular focus on presenting a typology of medieval manuscripts, illustrated by Bibles, manuscripts of the Latin classics and literary and legal manuscripts in the vernacular. A significant component of the school will be instruction in the use of TEI-conformant XML to record and analyse codicological data. There will also be a presentation of Manuscripta mediaevalia, a joint online venture of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, Bayerische Staatsbibliothek München and the Deutsches Dokumentationszentrum für Kunstgeschichte - Bildarchiv Foto Marburg, which gives access to the manuscript collections of hundreds of libraries in Europe and the United States.The language of instruction will be English.
