Dear Albrecht,

are you interested only in Latin and Greek traditions or in the Oriental as well? I run a project on Syriac monastic anthologies that aims, firstly, to describe all extant Syriac monastic anthologies that were written from the 6th c. onwards (in total ca. 130 mss) and, secondly, to study a history of the formation and development of the anthologies as well as peculiarities of the circulation of monastic literature within them.

Your can find a summary here:

Yours sincerely
Grigory

Dear digital medieval colleagues:

I am new to this list and would like to introduce the project I am currently working on:
I try to document the manuscript transmission of late antique and early medieval monastic texts. I especially focus on monastic rules and on understudied texts with a wide dissemination.
As a side product I collected links to all catalogues of medieval manuscripts that are online or available on archive org - which turned out to be a rather useful tool. I am also collecting links to ongoing digital manuscript projects.
Especially for these pages I would be very happy to get some input from you.
Here are the links:

Have a great summer!
Albrecht
