Abstract

This article considers the current functions of palaeography particularly as these relate to its study in Britain and occasionally more widely. It assesses some of the limits to the roles that palaeography can fruitfully fulfill and examines some of its possible misapplications in recent manuscript study and possible fruitful ways forward.
