“Transcribathon” describes the full range of the Early Modern Studies Working Group’s efforts to teach and develop the skills of paleography. Critical to researching the early modern period is the ability to read manuscripts. This is not always so easy! Thus, our ongoing paleography workshop is designed to provide introductory tutelage and regular practice.
