The first palaeographers to assert the Ms is in a humanist script?
#20
Quote:Beatrice: As far as I know, all of them appear in most mss. They may have different thickness, roundness or height but it seems to me the scribe invented nothing new, just wrote them differently.

Show me examples of cTh, cKh, cFh, and f (with the loop on the top-right). I don't think these appear in "most manuscripts".

I've gone through more than 15,000 manuscripts in the last 11 years (along with more than 80 world alphabets) and I can't find them. I can find all the others, most are quite common. The benched glyphs might be based on the same general ideas as Greco-Latin scribal conventions, but the specific shapes I believe are invented.
