Really excited to see this out in the world, open-access ✨ I argue that coloured/enlarged letters (litterae notabiliores) and paragraphs are used in the manuscripts to mark dialogue and the textual structure of Acallam na Senórach. MS pictures and direct links to @dias-isos.bsky.social are provided!
