ABSTRACT

Codex miscellanies are enigmatic witnesses to the intellectual and cultural exchanges of the Middle Ages, both within the Iberian Peninsula and across the Pyrenees. Individual texts plucked for reproduction from manuscript miscellanies are often encountered as fragments in secondary literature, isolated and compiled into subsequent gatherings of texts and images with their own respective functions. The practice of isolating these texts and images, as well as its intellectual motivations, has served to obscure our view of manuscript miscellanies and composites as material objects. This paper explores the possibilities of digital platforms for the investigation of miscellaneous codices through two brief case studies—Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF) MS lat. 2858 and lat. 5132—to explore tools for collation visualization and annotation.

摘要

手抄本杂记是中世纪知识和文化交流的神秘见证，无论是在伊比利亚半岛还是在比利牛斯山脉。从手稿杂项中摘取复制的个别文本经常作为碎片出现在二手文献中，被孤立并编译成随后具有各自功能的文本和图像的集合。孤立这些文本和图像的做法，以及它的智力动机，已经使我们对手稿杂项和合成物作为实物的看法变得模糊了。本文通过两个简短的案例研究——法国国家图书馆 (BnF) MS lat 探讨了数字平台用于调查杂项抄本的可能性。2858 和纬度。5132—探索用于整理可视化和注释的工具。
