Abstract

The thirteenth-century medieval scribe, the ‘Tremulous Hand of Worcester’ is known for the tremor visible in his script. Thorpe & Alty combine historical analysis with the first neurological study of the scribe’s handwriting. After considering various differential diagnoses, they conclude that the balance of evidence favours essential tremor.
