Coffee with a Codex: Golden Legend

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 July 11, Curator Dot Porter will bring out Ms. Codex 434, an anonymous translation of the Golden Legend different from translation used in early printed editions. Written in Italy in 1459. (BiblioPhilly, OPenn, Internet Archive, CWAC Recording)
