Summary:
"The manuscripts we offer at Textmanuscripts.com ... are sometimes not easy to appreciate without some background. This new series, which we are calling "primers," is our answer. Each small volume will introduce one genre of medieval manuscripts to a wider audience, by providing a brief, general introduction, followed by descriptions of text manuscripts that belong to that genre."--V. 1, cover flap.
