CALLIGRAPHY AND ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPTS
Course No. 007
Tutors for this two day workshop - Calligrapher, Linda Hayter, and Dr. Stella
Panayotova, Jesus College Oxford.
Calligraphy - Students will learn the basic principles of writing with the
broad-edged pen using a medieval script. There will be the opportunity to
explore and use traditional writing and illuminating materials, including
gold leaf. Using modern papers and materials students will experience the
work of the medieval scribe and illuminator and the ultimate thrill of using
black ink, gold and pigments to produce their own manuscript. There will be
demonstrations of all techniques and prepared quills, exemplars and samples
of vellum will be available to take away to use at home.
Illuminated Manuscripts
Lecture illustrated and supplemented by notes.
Combined with a practical introduction for beginners,
intermediate, or advanced. All three sessions will be
supported by slides and handouts containing a
summary and medieval textual sources in translation.
