Designing English
Early Literature on the Page
Daniel WakelinPostscript summary
Daniel Wakelin explores the varieties of graphic design used in medieval books and other artefacts with English text, ranging in date from the late 8th century to the early Tudor period. With examples drawn mostly from the Bodleian Library’s manuscript collections he analyses how pages were laid out for utilitarian or aesthetic purposes and analyses what their visual form reveals about the intentions of scribes and the practices of readers.
