| A classic study in regional palaeography, Loew's essay traces the development and decline of the South Italian Miniscule script that originated in the Benedictine scriptorium of Monte Cassino in the 5th century. Working almost entirely from original sources, Loew studies the script, the milieu of its development, the books written in it, and the prominent centres and individuals engaged in the copying of manuscripts over a period of 500 years. An appendix lists over 600 Benevantan manuscripts. (1914) | |||||
