Diagramming the Diagrammatic: Twelfth-Century Europe

Full Text

In this essay, I offer a new classification scheme for considering medieval diagrams and suggest terminology that offers a way to think about diagrams and the diagrammatic throughout the Middle Ages; this is meant to obviate the problems articulated in earlier scholarship on the subject, especially for the twelfth century when there was a dramatic increase in the production and application of diagrams and diagrammatic structures.
