An[n]otationes et quaestiones logicae [manuscript]
A handwritten Latin manuscript of logical annotations and questions, dated 1580, from the Smithsonian Libraries collection, written as scholarly notes on philosophy and science for a learned reader. The pages are dense brown-ink script with brackets, tree-like diagrams and marginal numerals, so a designer might borrow the rhythm of dense text blocks, hand-ruled bracket lines and aged paper tones.
