Griebeler, Andrew, "How to illustrate a scientific treatise in the Palaiologan period", dins: Mattiello, Andrea - Rossi, Maria Alessia, Late Byzantium Reconsidered: The Arts of the Palaiologan Era in the Mediterranean, Londres, Routledge, 2019, pp. 71-84.
- Resum
- This chapter identifies four ways that illustrated Palaiologan scientific manuscripts differ from other illustrated manuscripts of the period. First, illustrated scientific treatises typically show a greater degree of collaboration and coordination between scribes and illustrators than is evident in other Palaiologan manuscripts. Second, while the imperial family played a prominent role in commissioning deluxe religious manuscripts, they appear to have played a relatively limited, or indirect role in the patronage of deluxe scientific manuscripts. Third, scientific illustrations demonstrate modes of production that are otherwise rare in other illustrated Palaiologan manuscripts. Pictures were even copied prior to the text in several illustrated scientific manuscripts. Fourth, attitudes to novelty and archaism in scientific manuscripts often diverge from those of other Palaiologan manuscripts in general. The chapter finally proposes that while Orthodoxy guided the imagery and production of religious manuscripts, it played a less decisive role in scientific illustration.
