Notes: "a" in front of a date means "before" (from _ante_); I have represented the letters "edh" and "thorn" by | , and the letter "yogh" by ignored, as have all OOP citations, and in-period citations beyond a limit of two per meaning. Scroll (meaning 1) A roll of paper or parchment, usually one with writing upon it. 14..

[In Latin documents of the time, the terms "Sedulum" (1224), "Rotulus" (1142) and "Rollus" (1162), along with spelling variants and specifying adjectives were used for what we would call a "scroll".] As for Graydon's suggestions: Writ (meaning 3) A formal writing or paper of any kind; a legal document or instrument. a1122 O. E. Chron. (Laud. MS) an.963 "Hu se papa Agatho hit feostnode mid his write". a1200 in Kemble Cod. Dipl.

A leaf of paper (in OE, called "boc", BOOK); a legal document or 'deed' written (usually) upon a single sheet of paper, parchment, or other material, by which grants, cessions, contracts, and other transactions are confirmed and ratified. (meaning 1) A written document delivered by the sovereign or legislature: [goes on to give specific reasons for such delivery with examples going back to the 13th century, including the Magna Carta] (meaning 2) A written evidence, instrument, or contract executed between man and man : [examples in three sub-categories from the 13th century on] (meaning 4) As a rendering of L. _charta_ taken: Paper; a paper, writing, letter, document, etc. [examples from 14th century from the Wyclif Bible] Letters Close ... the term doesn't seem to appear in the OED under either "letter" or "close". There is mention of "close rolls" being collections of "close writs" (grants under the Great Seal to private individuals for particular purposes) and similar items, with the earliest example from 1612. Letters Patent (meaning I.1 under "patent") An open letter or document, usually from a sovereign or person in authority, issued for various purposes, e.g., to put on record some agreement or contract, to authorize or command something to be done, to confer some right, privilege, title, property, or office... [examples from 1292 onwards]. Capitulary (meaning 2) A collection of ordinances (in mod. L. called _capitula_), especially those made on their own authority by the Frankish Kings. [examples of this and the variant form "capitular" all date from after 1600; as a *Latin* term (thus ignored by the OED), I have a reference from the 13th century of "capitularium", meaning the set of regulations of a religious chapter--JdM]. While several of Graydon's examples are perfectly fine alternate terms, there is nothing wrong with "scroll", either (and this is just English -- "escroue" plus spelling variants were the French versions). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeremy de Merstone George J Perkins perkins at msupa.pa.msu.edu North Woods, MidRealm East Lansing, MI perkins at msupa (Bitnet) Subject: Scribal arts (was Concep Date: 21 May 92 From: Stephen.Whitis at f4229.n124.z1.fidonet.org (Stephen Whitis) Newsgroups: rec.org.sca Arvcal wrote... >The East does not have standard promissaries.

I know that some kingdoms use >photocopied scroll-blanks as promissaries; I'd be interested to hear how >this varies from kingdom to kingdom. What does your kingdom give out >with an award? I too would be interested in how other kingdoms handle award scrolls. In Ansteorra, at AOA and Grant level, each award has one or more blanks which we call charters. A charter is similar to a coloring book page, being a B&W copy (on nice paper) which has the calligraphy and outlines for the illumination. The spaces where the recipients name, the date, the branch holding the event, and the crown signs are left blank and filled in as needed. These blank charters are distributed amoung the illuminers, who paint them to look like "real" scrolls. (Or a faxcimile thereof! :-)) In addition, and in theory, each person can request a "real" scroll, (Called an achievement) one at each major level. (AOA, Grant, Peerage.) The kingdom scroll person will assign that scroll to one of the advanced calligraphy/illumination persons, who will work with the recipient to come up with a scroll they will like, and this scribe will then make the scroll. The achievement will have their arms (if registered) and some reference to all the awards that person has received so far. (I'm not sure if they will assign achievements for someone who does not have registered arms, or if they do, how it is handled.) In practice, there is no backlog on the charters. (Though they usually are running close to empty.) But very few of the achievements are done. In fact, most people never make a request for an achievement. (IMO, because they don't expect to ever see it.) The few achievements that *do* get completed are usually from a situation where person A wants a scroll, and is a friend of person B, a scribe. They tell the kingdom person they are doing it, and do it. I could of course give my opinions about changes that I think should be made in our system, but I think I'll pass for now.

What sorts of c&i would be valued (enough to sell) by the population, and be period? How about: a period recipe? a love poem? a war poem? an indulgence from the church? Do you think someone of Viking persuasion would love to own a copy of a saga (or part of one) done in the appropriate hand and with the appropriate illumination? Wouldn't a thirteenth-century recipe look great framed on your kitchen wall? (Eric Foxworthy wrote out "Louie, Louie" in Elvish, with illumination including gold leaf, and sold color photocopies at a con. They went quickly.) One of my upcoming projects is a bestiary (which I'm making for myself, wonder of wonders). I'd like to do a Book of Hours for myself, too, someday. Ah, and a carpet page. I'd love a carpet page. Anybody have any other ideas of valuable, period calligraphy and illumination?

While I was one of the Shield Heralds of the Middle Kingdom ten years ago (and mundanely a law student) I did a report for Mistress Graidhne, then Dragon Principal Herald, on that very subject. The *carta* or charter was the most formal and solemn document produced by governments during the Middle Ages. They were invariably used for grants of rights "in perpetuity", such as lands, hereditable honors and franchises, and Papal privileges (called "bulls" from the lead *bulla* or seal). Charters were also used for solemn confirmations of prior grants (in |
