Clerical Script

Clerical Script refers to a style of handwriting that was commonly used in administrative and legal documents during the Middle Ages, particularly in Europe. It features clear, simple letters, making it easier to read and write, in contrast to more elaborate scripts like Gothic or Carolingian. The script usually includes a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, with more standardized forms that increased efficiency in record-keeping. Clerical Script played a crucial role in the development of modern handwriting and typesetting, as it influenced later forms of writing used in legal and official documents.
