| description | This chapter explores some aspects of the materiality and layout of the Leukophryena epigraphic dossier (I.Magnesia 16-87). Starting from the dossier’s layout, I analyze the location of the documents within the dossier, the principles guiding the organization of the documents, the relation between formats and document typologies, and the use and meaning of the appended lists. In the second section of the chapter, I turn to some paratextual elements of the dossier, starting with the large-scale and gradually focusing upon ever smaller, but still significant, features. This entails a reconsideration of issues of mise en page and other devices of layout, such as variation in the size of the letters, rubrication, and the use of titles and lectional signs. To what extent did they fulfill an ornamental function? Were they intended to facilitate the documents’ readability? Through a close analysis of two documents (I.Magnesia 16 and 17), I try to assess how decorations, spaces, and indentations were used to build a visual framework, and how this framework served to highlight key messages and recurrent elements. |
