In 2019, scientists in the Library of Cambridge University revealed a very rare 750-year-old text in the legends of King Arthur. One part of the fragile manuscript was set in the parcel of property in the 16th century, and almost learned without disassemble the medieval text and, of course, it is almost impossible to learn without damage to the note. It is almost impossible – but not completely.
A interdisciplinary group of Kambridge University allows you to fall into digital text without damage or damage to the property record using various advanced imaging techniques to create a virtual copy of the mandatory text. This basic approach also protects an archive of the 16th century in the 16th century in the century, a French Factory-Tehranchi in the project, which participates in the project, was explained at a university statement.

In addition to the general tools such as mirrors, magnets and prisms, factors and colleagues, use advanced image techniques to photographing each side of the folded fragment and create a highly detailed 3D model of artifacts to understand the compulsory structure. After that, hundreds of pictures were collected together as a puzzle to create a digital version of the cover Researchers can now open and learn It was as if they were holding real things.
« 30 years ago, this could be cut, opened, opened and arranged. But today, in the 16th century archival practices and the medieval story in the 16th century, » said Foundry-Tehranchi. « For the first time, Sir Gawain was thought to be the story of the 14th century, but the next examination revealed that the old French vulgate Merlin Sequel’s Sequel. »
Medieval legends King ArthurQueen Guinevere, Knight Sir Lancelot, a search for the magician Merlin and the Holy Grail, read, read, read, read and in countless versions for centuries, perhaps more than a thousand years. This Vulgate cycleIt is also recognized at the same time Lancelot-Grail cyclesuch a version in old French.
In the first half of the 13th century, the five-part epic prose of a monumental explains the legends of Artburuan in epic prose. The fragment found in Cambridge University library Merlin Vulgatepart of Vulgate cycle The king is reminiscent of events after the toronization of Arthur. A passage from the fragment, a Christian victory, with a knight Gauvin (as well as Gawain) over sexons on the seasons. When Maryam Maryam’s Assumption Holding A Merlin, who was hidden in the King Arthur’s court, leaves something else. Here is English translation:
While rejoicing on the holiday and Kay Senezchal brought the first meal to King Arthur and Queen Guinvere, the most handsome man came to the Christian lands. A silk tunic woven with gold and precious stones, it was wearing a silk tunnel, which brightened the whole room so that it glowed with such shine.
There is a surviving copy of 40 Merlin Vulgate The text and medieval writers known to scientists have a unique version, each of which is copied by hand. For example, the one in the Library of the University of Cambridge has decorative red and blue capital letters. This, according to other features, the researchers offer to write the text between 1275 and 1315.
However, « This project was not just unlocking a text, and it was related to developing a methodology that can be used for other manuscripts, » Fabri-Tehranchi said. « Libraries and archives are facing similar problems with fragile fragments included in the parcels, and our approach offers a model for non-invasive access and education. »
A person’s trash (or book closing) can actually be someone else’s treasure, even after 750 years.
