Coffee with a Codex: Book of Hours

An informal lunch or coffee time to meet virtually with Kislak curators and talk about one of the manuscripts from Penn's collections. Each week we'll feature a different manuscript and the expertise of one of our curators. Everyone is welcome to attend.

On June 1, Curator Dot Porter brought out Ms. Codex 1056, an illuminated book of hours written in Rouen, France, for a woman. (OPenn, BiblioPhilly, CWAC Recording)
