Abstract

This research illustrates the use of philological analytical strategies to trace the Latin variants in Middle Ages and early Renaissance manuscripts. By concentrating on the variants, the investigation tries to find out how Latin changed during the period with the help of linguistic forms of the non, conformist which differ from the classical norms. The study is based on locating, describing, and explaining the variants in the chosen manuscript collection by means of the most important methods of investigation like textual criticism, paleography, and codicology. These methods are used to figure out how these language alterations mirror the regional, temporal, and sociocultural aspects of the period. Besides, the research is committed to the ceaseless medium of interaction between prose writing and manuscript production in the Middle Ages which led to the slow but sure "Latin inflation" of language forms [9]. This "Latin inflation" was instrumental in linking the historiographical gap in Latin literature as it turned into Renaissance where the interaction between classical Latin and vernacular influences resulted in a more developed and inflated prose style of the kind. The manuscript through this lens aims to fill in the blots of the historiography of Latin literature by tracing the influence of manuscript culture on the change of Latin in the period of transition. The study, through an emphasis on classical philology and manuscript research, intends to unveil the detailed ways in which new Latin manuscripts influenced the intellectual and cultural milieu of the era.
