A.   簡介 Introduction (within 500 words, Chinese or English) 

本研究議題重點在於研究中世紀手抄本的科技創新與文化變遷兩者之間的關係。研究社群探討十二世紀文藝復興時期 (“Twelfth-Century Renaissance” c. 1075 -c. 1225) 二百本手抄本，以量化的研究成果，說明在科技創新下如何使得當時的知識份子改變閱讀文本的習慣，進而在他們複製抄寫文本的過程中改變了中世紀手抄本的DNA。 
計畫主持人Erik Kwakkel宣稱：
The proposed project complements and expands current scholarship in several ways. First, the twelfth-century manuscript has not yet been studied as a separate entity that stands apart from its predecessor and successor because of its unique physical features. The terminology used to discuss various aspects of this new book format, with its decoration designated as “proto”-gothic and its script as littera “prae”-gotica, shows it is primarily seen as a precursor of the Gothic manuscript, that great book of the later Middle Ages. The project will also augment existing research through the sources it is based on, dated manuscripts, and how these are approached, namely in a quantitative manner. A large set of manuscripts so evidently linked to temporal, geographical and social dimensions of medieval culture can help provide assessments of unprecedented detail and conviction, as quantitative publications show. While this source is to date exclusively used for manuscript studies, the project will use the factual data it presents to historical ends: the catalogues can, like no other source, show us in detail that twelfth-century manuscript production turned over a new leaf, as did the medieval readers who used the objects. 
    This study also stands out in that it regards the object at its core — the twelfth-century manuscript — as a product of a pan-European intellectual movement, designed to satisfy the needs of a new generation of intellectuals. By linking the innovative book format to the age of renewal in which it was created, this study provides an unusual blend of physicality and historical inquiry, allowing the medieval historian to “read” much more in the manuscript than merely its texts: including the material dimension in his observations allows him to extract the “cultural residue” hidden in the DNA of the new book format and reveal new historical information, for example about the manner in which a manuscript was used and the readers who handled the object.
