Download 825 Karolus FoStylent Family
family of 2 fonts from GLC
In the beginning of the 800s, during the reign of Carolus Magnus (or Karolus, as he signed himself), a great reformation of the written characters was conducted under the authority of Alcuin, Paul Diacre and Theodulfe. The new style, named Caroline script, was completely set up between 820 to 830. It was a regular script, with few ligatures, very legible, but only with lowercase. The capitals remained the old Romans ones.
