This removed content is usually the focus of research. The present volume, which brings together eighteen papers prepared for two workshops at the Centre for the Study of Manuscript Cultures in Hamburg in 2021 and 2023, takes a broader perspective by going far beyond the borders of classical philology into the much less studied manuscript cultures of the Christian East (Aramaic, Armenian, Ethiopic, Georgian, Slavonic, Syriac), the Islamic world of Asia and Africa (Arabic), and East Asia (Japanese). It thematizes writing supports other than parchment that were suitable for palimpsesting; different practices applied in erasing and overwriting handwritten content and the various reasons for such undertakings; and the different methods that researchers can employ to reveal the content of the removed layers and the results that these methods can yield. 330 $aPalimpsests are manuscripts whose original content has been erased, scraped away, washed off and later overwritten. In their lower layers, they often contain unique versions of texts ? including those otherwise lost ? from Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The volume addresses palimpsesting across languages, cultures, and times, as well as up-to-date research and imaging practices applied to them and results achieved in reconstituting removed layers. 410 0$aStudies in Manuscript Cultures Series 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / General$2bisacsh 610 $aPalimpsests. 610 $ahistory of writing. 610 $amultispectral imaging. 610 $atext transmission. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / General. 676 $a809 700 $aGippert$b Jost$0467671 701 $aMaksimczuk$b Jose?$00 701 $aSargsyan$b Hasmik$01782976 712 02$aUniversita?t Hamburg,$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011317403321 996 $aPalimpsests and Related Phenomena Across Languages and Cultures$94309624 997 $aUNINA
