(Post)byzantinische Formularsammlungen Neue Texte aus dem Umfeld von Kanzleien
Abstract
This article provides further texts of Byzantine and early Post-Byzantine handbooks for the use of notaries in chanceries. The seven collections and one exercise sheet contain samples of official documents and letters, in particular their beginnings and endings, and in some cases also the addresses (on the back). They originate from secular and clerical chanceries, and no. VI—at least partially—even from the Ottoman chancery for documents written in the Greek language with instructions for the tughra of Sultan Murad II.
