Abstract

Beginning especially in the twelfth century, developments in the presentation of texts in medieval manuscripts became increasingly bound up with understandings of textual forms, the structures inherent in texts. Scribes sought ways to express ideas of what was called a text’s ordinatio (or the forma tractatus) visually, in their approaches to copying and their organization of the page, and—especially insofar as scholastic literature increasingly favored ever greater subdivisions of texts—emphasis was placed on distinguishing and quickly locating these smaller textual pieces. After reviewing earlier scholarship on these intersecting issues of intellectual and material history, this essay extends this work in two ways: first, by exploring the overlapping contributions of scribes and authors to the visual presentation of their texts, and, second, by tracking “ordinational” impulses beyond single texts, to the organization of whole books, multiple volumes, and entire libraries.
特别是从12世纪开始,中世纪手稿中文本呈现的发展与文本形式的理解,文本固有的结构越来越紧密地联系在一起。抄写员在他们的抄写方法和页面组织中寻找方法来直观地表达所谓文本的排序(或形式),特别是在学术文献越来越喜欢文本的更大细分的情况下,重点放在区分和快速定位这些较小的文本片段上。在回顾了关于这些知识和物质历史交叉问题的早期学术研究之后,本文从两个方面扩展了这项工作:首先,通过探索抄写员和作者对其文本的视觉呈现的重叠贡献,其次,通过追踪超越单一文本的“顺序”冲动,到整本书、多卷和整个图书馆的组织。
