The early medieval decorated book illuminates our understanding of the processes of
cultural transition from late Antiquity to the Middle Ages and from a trans-continental
super-power to western and eastern nation states and revivals of empire - Byzantine
and Carolingian. The study of 'graphicacy' (graphic devices, such as inscribed letters
and decorative symbols, used to convey information on the text) is emerging as a pivotal
tool for understanding how the graphic architecture of the book played a role in the
dissemination and reception of thought. The essays in this volume add to the growing
scholarship on the medieval schematic and diagramming imagination, exploring some
of the many ways in which the spatial arrangement and patterning of text, graphic
sign, and figural image generated meaning for medieval viewers, readers, and performers
of the written word. Among the individual topics addressed are monograms; the appearance
of the cross in early medieval Christian manuscripts; and Anglo-Saxon decorated initials
