The sense of "title", as in "book title", in modern English derives from this artistic sense, just as the legal sense derives from plainer inscriptions of record. Use in Western art The increasing reluctance of the art of the West to use ''tituli'' was perhaps because so few people could read them in the Early Medieval period, and later because they reduc ...
