13 Ready 2019 distinguishes "textualization" from "entextualization," the latter referring to how an instance of discourse is made detachable from its original, local context (e.g., how the Homeric epics took shape, independently from medial considerations). 14 Scholarly attention has mostly focused on scribes and dictation. See, e.g., Verhoogt 2009; Evans 2012; Halla-aho 2018. 15 The notion "frame" has had a long history in a broad range of fields, including philosophy, psychology, sociology, artificial intelligence, narratology, and linguistics, without there being a "unified frame theory with specific terms and definitions" (Bednarek 2005, 688). Space does not permit extensive discussion here. For a good introduction, see, e.g., MacLachlan and Reid 1994. 16 Kress 2010, 149. 17 Compare the physical frames around paintings. 18 There are about 170 Greek letters from this period. Some of the letters discussed here were not included in Bagnall and Cribiore 2006, or the 2008 online edition of that volume: new letters have been edited since then, and some letters also seem to have been overlooked. Not included in the present study are letters where it is uncertain whether the sender is female, either because of the state of preservation (e.g., Ἰ̣ σ̣ ι̣ δώρα̣ in SB VI 9165 [1-50 CE]) or the status of the name as male or female (e.g., Αὐνῆν in P. Louvre I 67,). Also not included are party invitations by women (e.g., P.Coll.Youtie I 52 [II-III CE]), which are rather short and stereotypical.

“… 24. The problem may become somewhat less serious from the latter part of the fourth century when some forms of literary writing and documentary writing begin to become more easily comparable thanks to what Jean-Luc Fournet has called ‘la littérarisation des documents’ and ‘la documentarisation de la littérature’ (Fournet 2016: 76-84). Yet, it should be noted that this sentiment seems not to be shared by all palaeographers.…”

Palaeographic Analysis of Codices from the Early Christian Period: A Point of Method

It is often said that palaeographic analysis of Greek literary manuscripts from the Roman era has progressed from an aesthetic judgment to more of a science, thanks largely to increased data (in the form of newly discovered papyri and parchments from Egypt) and to more sophisticated ways of describing similarity and difference in handwriting. This progress is frequently taken to mean that we may now use the analysis of handwriting to assign dates to undated manuscripts with much greater precision and accuracy than was possible a century ago. This article questions this conclusion by focusing on neglected methodological points that speciﬁcally relate to the problem of palaeographic dating of codices, namely the size and character of the corpus of securely datable samples to which the handwriting of undated codices is compared. This problem is especially relevant for early Christian books, the surviving examples of which tend to be copied in the codex format.
