Sommario/riassunto

Variance characterises the textual culture of the Middle Ages on all levels. Analysing this variance is paramount to understand the norms and transformations involved in the process of establishing a literate culture. This series focuses on the literate output in the Nordic region, from the perspective of Modes of Modification. In order to place the region in a larger context, it also encourages comparative studies with a wider European view.
