Handwritten book that has been lavishly decorated with designs and miniature pictures

All books were hand written. Latin for hand is “manus” Latin for writing is “scriptum”…. Gives us the term “manuscript” Extremely slow and demanding job; sometimes creatively glorious and always very expensive. The most expensive manuscripts were illuminated (lit up by decorations).

Originally denoted the embellished text of these handwritten books with gold, more rarely silver. Gives the impression that the page has been literally illuminated.

Two different jobs of writing books: Those who historiated and Those who illuminated. Historiated: those who illustrated texts by relevant paintings Illuminated: those who supplied a book with decorated work that embellished initial capital letters and often spilled into the margins and borders: almost always using gold The two sometimes overlapped.

Pretend you are an illuminating artist! =) You are to write your own short tale about Medieval Times or The Renaissance. This should only be about one paragraph. The possibilities are endless… tell a short story about a princess, a king, a serf, a knight… tell about their life, their job, their feelings, their heroic battle….Make it up or use historical evidence! The first letter in your story should be much larger than the rest of the letters and extremely elaborate. You should also have a miniature picture on the page with an elaborate border.
