St. Osmund's New Legacy: The Scriptorium Informs Electronic Text
View through CrossRef
Fifty manuscripts produced in the scriptorium of the cathedral at Old
Sarum in the last quarter of the eleventh century help us reflect on the
flurry of digitization today. St. Osmund, the first bishop of Salisbury
and the developer of the scriptorium and library, is described. The
selection and acquisition of exemplars and production of copies are
examined. Comparisons are drawn between the selection and acquisition
of scriptorium exemplars and digitized texts. The legacies of the fifty
manuscripts to current historians and the potential legacies of digitized
texts to future historians are examined, and cautions are given.
