{"product_id":"the-scribal-fingerprint-von-janneke-susanne-mol","title":"The Scribal Fingerprint","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book provides a graphetic analysis of the two  hands active in MS GUL Hunter 83, a Middle English  edition of a Prose Brut text. It is based on the  methodology first put forward by Professor McIntosh  in 1974, which uses Graphetic and Linguistic  Profiles in order to identify scribal  idiosyncrasies. By applying the graphetic element of  this theory to MS Hunter 83, the main body of this  thesis presents two ¿scribal fingerprints'',  ultimately singling out graphetic behaviour  characteristic of both hands. The primary aim is an  in-depth analysis of the letter forms which will  make up the body of the Graphetic Profiles of the  two scribes. However, it may also be possible to  identify a dialectal difference, since it is said  that scribe B wrote in a ¿typical Scottish hand''  (Matheson 1998:205). A Graphetic Profile can shed  further light on this assumption and identify the  typical Scottish features allegedly present in the  hand of this scribe. In sum, the research presented  in this book is an attempt to test the validity and  value of McIntosh''s analytic procedure on two  complex scribal outputs from the end of the Middle  English period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838390185\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwo Graphetic Profiles of a Prose Brut Manuscript (GUL Hunter 83)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838390185","offer_id":39469283278941,"sku":"9783838390185","price":68.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/598d7ed9-331a-4932-a5b1-0e6375e4779f.jpg?v=1776233046","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/the-scribal-fingerprint-von-janneke-susanne-mol","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
