Abstract

El presente capítulo versa sobre los escribas que, en las primeras décadas del siglo IX en el noreste de la península Ibérica y del siglo XII en el norte y noroeste, fueron más o menos diplomáticamente empujados hacia el cambio de sus modelos gráficos pasando de la escritura visigótica a la carolina. Trataremos brevemente sobre cuándo y por qué cada centro de producción, tradicional o de nueva creación, adoptó el nuevo sistema de escritura dominante en Europa y cómo ese cambio fue implementado y percibido por sus contemporáneos. Atención especial se prestará a los escribas y copistas que se muestran entre dos contextos culturales diferentes mediante el análisis de los pocos ejemplos conservados de poligrafismo en escritura latina en Iberia.

Highlights

  • This article is concerned with the scribes who, in the early decades of the 9th century in the east of the Iberian Peninsula and of the 12th century in the north and north-west, came under a greater or lesser degree of diplomatic pressure to change their graphic model from Visigothic script to Caroline minuscule

  • The late eleventh century was for the Iberian Peninsula a period of drastic cultural transformation articulated through two specific interrelated aspects: the change of liturgy, from the Visigothic tradition to the Roman rite, and the change of writing systems, from Visigothic script to Caroline minuscule

  • A transitional period, had already begun in the mid-eleventh century[55], external influence spreading from north to south as territory was progressively recovered from the Muslims, with examples written in Caroline minuscule dating to 1108 (Coimbra)[56]
