The course introduces students to the development and main types of Latin script up to the end of the Middle Ages. The aim of the course is to acquire a basic theoretical minimum, but above all to learn the basics of reading the scripts in which the source texts in the Czech lands are written.

They also have a command of the system of basic abbreviations found in diplomatic sources.
