Medievalmaniac Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Here are some excellent resources I just stumbled across. Kip Wheeler's webpages are exhaustive in their treatment of general knowledge, there are some great study questions and paleographic/textual editing exercises you can put yourself through, and the manuscript studies page is essentially nothing less than an online graduate-level course in codicology and paleography. The bibliographies and timelines alone would be worth a look, but these are marvelous resources, so I figured I would pass them along in hopes some of you didn't aready know about them and could benefit. Kip Wheeler's pages: http://web.cn.edu/kwheeler/resource_medieval_lit.html Stephen Reimer's manuscript studies pages: http://www.ualberta.ca/~sreimer/ms-course.htm Enjoy! And also - if anyone has anything you've run across that might be helpful to fellow grad students, this thread could serve as a great catch-all for resources!

Every medievalist in literature needs manuscript studies. It's a moral imperative. Plus - I mean, gee! It's FUN!! lol By the by, how are things going for you at Fordham? I was meaning to pop in and pm you now that you've gotten your sea legs under you, so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I knew I needed manuscript studies. I'm even taking a class in it this term. But that website! It's that resource that I didn't know I needed. And Fordham is lovely--intimidated as all heck by the aforesaid manuscript studies class, but the medievalist community here is amazing. We travel in packs.
