Coffee with a Codex: Ethiopian Manuscripts

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 February 26, curator Dot Porter will bring out a selection of manuscripts from Ethiopia, including a prayer book (LJS 102), an illustrated protective roll (Ms. Roll 2059), and a liturgical book (Ms. Codex 2338). They were all copied in the late 19th or early 20th centuries, and reflect the distinctive and longstanding Ethiopian manuscript art and culture. (CWAC Recording)
