Again, the medieval Latin manuscript example may be helpful as a way to think about this -- there were some very specific conventions there, but... 15:58:05 ...they differ by scribal school and over time and still allowed for illustrator discretion. The mind boggles about what would happen if we tried to devise an formalized typology and encoding for them. Perhaps Korean pages are is a lot more standardized in that regard, but the examples and discussion are not persuasive about that. 15:58:13 I have to drop off. Thank you.
