Abstract

The present research aims to address the case study about the Serbian copyist anagnost Ioan through the use of the web-based repository. The same scribe's signature is observed in the manuscripts Dečani No 127 and No 119, which are also connected by the typology and a similar dating. The goal is to compare the distinctive features of both manuscripts and the handwriting of the 14th century scribes who contributed to the copying. In conducting this research, we will use a new descriptive scientific model, created and tested by the research project team.
