Product Information

Excerpt from Palaeography Notes Upon the History of Writing and the Medieval Art of Illumination Of the books which preceded the invention of Printing, a much larger quantity is still extant than the world in general would suppose, but they are nevertheless so widely scattered and so seldom immediately accessible, that only a very long experience will enable any one to speak or to write about them in other than a blundering fashion. So many qualifications are required, that it may seem presumptuous in me to treat upon a matter bristling with difficulties and uncertainties. The brief but admirable outline of its history which Mr. Maunde Thompson has lately published is likely to mislead the inexperienced into a belief that a science defined with so much clearness and apparent ease may as easily be mastered. No one kws better than that accomplished scholar how hard it would be to supply sure and definite criteria for the guidance of palaeographical students in all the branches of their fascinating pursuit.
