AbstractHistoryArchive Description
During conversation, Phil Day suggests an assembly line ritual that might have been played out in the production of (medieval) hand-written texts: one person rules in the lines and passes the sheet to the next scribe who draws in the verticals. The sheet then goes to the next scribe who does the horizontals, then to another to do the obliques and so on to the colourist or illustrator. It’s a modern projection onto an imagined hand-drawn past. (Contextual Statement: Introduction)
