| | Introduction to the Old English poem called BEOWULF |
| | Square minuscule is likely to have been in use for only a very few years after A.D. The few manuscripts, like that containing Beowulf, which display contemporaneous writing in these two successive styles of Insular minuscule must therefore have been written very early in the eleventh century. | | | Kiernan points out '[a] closely datable example of Square insular script survives in a chirograph of Bishop Byrhteh of Worcester (1033-38) leasing land to his cniht Wulfmær' (Kiernan xvii-xviii), though Greg Rose (136-9) argues that the hand is not the same type of Square minuscule as in the Beo. | | | The second scribe, who writes a more conservative Anglo-Saxon square minuscule hand, copied the remainder of Beowulf (roughly 1238 lines) and the poem Judith which follows. |

| | (Minuscule letters were the original 'lower case' characters, and as such have been referred to as "the great medieval contribution to writing.") This minuscule script was popular for less important writings as early as the 3rd century because it was easier to write, demanded less ability, and took less space. | | | The script which was eventually adopted and standardized, which we call the Carolingian minuscule, is the outcome of a fusion of several distinct national styles, all of which had developed out of the classical Roman and informal cursive styles of earlier centuries. | | | majuscule: a large letter, either capital or uncial, used in writing or printing minuscule: lower-case letter nib: point of a pen papyrus: paper made from the pith of the stalk of the papyrus reed, a tall aquatic sedge. |

| | The script ultimately developed from Roman Half Uncial and its cursive version, which had given rise to various Continental minuscule scripts, combined with features from the "Insular" scripts that were being used in Irish and English monasteries. | | | Carolingian minuscule was created partly under the patronage of the Emperor Charlemagne (hence Carolingian). | | | Carolingian minuscule is a script developed as a writing standard in Europe so that the Roman alphabet could be easily recognized by the small literate class from one region to another. |

| | The Weyl group action on minuscule weights in Maple. |
| | An invariant subspace of a representation cannot share part of an orbit of weights, so if the cycle structures tell us that there is only one orbit, we must conclude that the representation is irreducible (this assumes that the weight spaces are one-dimensional, which may fail to hold if the highest weight is not minuscule). | | | A minuscule representation is an irreducible representation in which all the weights lie in a single Weyl group orbit. | | | In fact in some cases we can "see" the irreducibility of the minuscule representation by inspecting the cycle structures of the permutations associated with the Weyl group's elements. |

| | Minuscule, or lower case, is the smaller form (case) of letters (in the Roman alphabet: a, b, c,...). | | | In languages with a case distinction, minuscules are generally used in most texts, and for most of any given text, with majuscules reserved for emphasis and special contexts. | | | It is from these that the first minuscule hands developed, the half-uncials and cursive minuscule, which no longer stay bound between a pair of lines. |

| | E-Intro to Old English - 16. Reading Old English Manuscripts |
| | Beginning in the tenth century Anglo-Saxon scribes began to use caroline minuscule (developed in Francia during the reign of Charlemagne) for Latin while continuing to write Old English in Insular minuscule. | | | These styles included Insular half-uncial, used for fine books in Latin, and the less formal minuscule, used for both Latin and the vernacular. | | | Thereafter Old English script was increasingly influenced by caroline minuscule even as it retained certain distinctively Insular letter-forms. |
