Description
The Digital Resource for Palaeography (DigiPal) is a project funded by the European Research Council that brings digital technology to bear on scholarly discussion of medieval handwriting. At its heart are hundreds of commissioned photographs of eleventh-century Anglo-Saxon script from the major manuscript collections in the world, with detailed descriptions of the handwriting, the textual content, and the wider manuscript or documentary context.
Taking advantage of advancements in digital research, as well as developing new technologies, DigiPal offers innovative ways of interrogating and interacting with the material. DigiPal intends to showcase the benefits of digitally assisted palaeography, opening up new possibilities for the study of scripts, scribes, and manuscripts.
