Originally published in 1936, this book is intended to supplement W. M. Lindsay's Notae Latinae of 1915, which examined Latin abbreviations of the early minuscule period (circa 700-850 AD). Bains reviews symbols employed in the following two centuries, as well as a few which were developed more fully as a result of the rise of learning and science in the twelfth century. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in palaeography.

Seller's Description:
Like New. Firm, square and tight, just showing a few mild rubs. Hence a non-text page is stamped 'damaged'. Despite such this book is in nearly new condition. Thus it looks and feels unread with crisp, fresh contents. Now offered for sale at a special bargain price.
