Cursives

Then about just fifty years ago Drs. Lachmann, Tischendorf and Tregelles began to construct that 'fabric of Textual Criticism' which has been the cause of the present treatise [though indeed Tischendorf does not adopt the suggestion of those few aberrant cursives which is supported by no surviving uncial, and in fact advocates the very origin of the mischief which has been just described]. ❋ John William Burgon (1850)

If reading relied heavily on shape information, we would have problems reading in different fonts, cursives and scripts. ❋ Unknown (2010)

There are no numbers, no strange cursives or codes. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2000)

(A), Coislinianus (P), BasilianoVaticanus (V), and many cursives; the other version is represented by the Vatican (B), and a considerable number of cursives. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

The disputed part is found in no uncial Greek manuscripts and in only four rather recent cursives -- one of the fifteenth and three of the sixteenth century. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

But their list was very defective, as certain manuscripts were counted twice, while others which were numbered among the cursives were uncials either wholly or in part, etc. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

Wetstein, the author of the usual notation, designates uncials by letters and cursives by Arabic figures. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

The textus receptus is that of the Sixtine edition, derived from the Codex Venetus and some cursives. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

To remedy this confusion Von Soden lays down as a principle that uncials should not have a different notation from the cursives and that each manuscript should be designated by a single abbreviation. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

Holmes-Parsons notation is still retained; the uncials, including those found since, are designated by Latin capitals; but no symbols have been assigned to recently discovered cursives. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

The text differs from both AB and Aleph and consequently the Greek cursives. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

Palæography divides the Greek into uncials and minuscules; the Latin into uncials, semi-uncials, capitals, minuscules and cursives. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

The number of these old manuscripts is large, and the first general division of them is into "uncials" or "cursives," as they are called; the uncial manuscripts being written in capital letters, the cursives in small letters more or less connected, as in our written hand. ❋ Washington Gladden (1877)

The uncials are the oldest, as they are the fewest; there are only one hundred and twenty-seven of them in all; while of the cursives there are about fifteen hundred. ❋ Washington Gladden (1877)

It is found in twelve uncials (though marked _doubtful_ in five of these) and in over 300 cursives. ❋ Matilda Joslyn Gage (1863)

It should be added, that some good cursives give it at the end of the twenty-first chapter of St Luke -- the most appropriate position, historically, that could be found for it. ❋ Joseph Barber Lightfoot (1858)

In the first place, it is written in Lombard characters; of which the Benedictines in their "Nouveau Traité de Diplomatique," give both a description and a specimen; and from the specimen given, the characters are small and elegant, some being high and ending in volutes or curves, while there is a "mingling of capitals and cursives." ❋ John Wilson Ross (1852)

Be that as it may, Eusebius certainly read [Greek: paradeigmatisai] (Dem. 320), with all the uncials but two (BZ): all the cursives but one (I). ❋ John William Burgon (1850)

Accordingly, A and all the uncials not already named, together with the whole body of the cursives, so read the place. ❋ John William Burgon (1850)

The form said "PLEASE [PRINT]" so [I didn't] use [cursive writing]. ❋ Lairor (2004)

I made sure I could [read and write] cursive since my [4th grade] teacher said I would fail high school if I didn't; turns out [nobody cares]. ❋ ChadK (2008)

[Elementary school] students [believe that] cursive will be used all their lives and that desks will protect them from [nuclear fallout], knaves. ❋ P. Kaltenbach (2008)

[Cursive] sucks. I wish I could just [print] the [Certification] Statement. ❋ Ninjasauce (2010)

What's special about Cursive is that they have a [celloist] in their band. It's odd, but the cello adds a fantastic texture to the whole thing. [Tim Kasher's] voice [brims] with emotions when he sings. I love that guy. BUt the time I went to see him for the Plea for Peace Tour, he was drunk as fuck and got the songs and lyrics mixed up. BUt he's great. Listen to him ❋ Rise Up Rise Against (2004)

if you [dont] like cursive.. you can [lick] my [chode]. ❋ DeepEllum (2004)

Guy: "dude are you [writing] in cursive?" [Prick]: "why of course! It's a... higher class of writing" Guy: "You're a [prick]" ❋ AlabamaNibber (2015)
