Coffee with a Codex Special Tuesday Edition: Petrarch Unboxing!
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 Tuesday, April 9 at 12pm Noon EST / 5pm GMT Curator Dot Porter was joined by SIMS Curator of Manuscripts Nick Herman and Penn PhD student in Italian Studies and Comparative Literature Julia Pelosi-Thorpe to unbox a new manuscript purchase! Petrarch's Canzoniere and Trionfi, with Leonardo Bruni's Life of Petrarch. Written in Florence in the 1470s. Watch as we "meet" our new manuscript for the first time!
