Open Access Journal: Manuscript and Text Cultures

View Vol. 1 (2022): Transposition and monumentality in pre-modern epigraphic and manuscript traditions

Manuscript and Text Cultures (MTC) is the Journal of the Centre for Manuscript and Text Cultures (CMTC) at The Queen's College in the University of Oxford. Each issue is devoted to a particular set of questions that are addressed globally. Articles are at once specialised and interdisciplinary, and led by the common goal of enabling long-term research on how knowledge and meaning are shaped and sustained by material conditions, past and present. As a platform for international researchers to engage in close dialogue across their areas of expertise and inform each other about approaches and theories developed in their various subject areas, the goal of MTC is to generate discussions that cross subject boundaries and contribute to the theoretical understanding of material text cultures and their impact on knowledge production in global literate societies. With our multidisciplinary approach, crossing traditional academic divisions, we hope to cast light on the deep structures of human behaviours in material knowledge production, past and present.
