Piękna Litera. Calligraphy Handbook – Carolingian Minuscule
The Piękna Litera book series was born from Ewa Landowska and Barbara Bodziony's experience and passion for calligraphy. Ten years of workshop practice let them gather the fundamentals of learning beautiful handwriting and set them down in a compact form.
The volume on Carolingian minuscule was written by Barbara Bodziony. Carolingian minuscule is one of the most significant scripts of the Middle Ages. Developed in the 8th–9th century, it long served as the standard script style. It's highly legible and regular, and became the root of today's ubiquitous humanist script. In the handbook you'll find guidance on how to correctly form each letter, how to join them, and the most common mistakes.
