Coffee with a Codex: Ymage du monde
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.
In 1245, Gautier of Metz composed a poetic summary of all knowledge on the creation of the world and man, geography, and astronomy, and Penn has two copies! On September 5, Curator Dot Porter will bring out LJS 264, written in France around 1400, and LJS 55, written in France in the 1290s. (LJS 264: OPenn, BiblioPhilly, Internet Archive; LJS 55: OPenn, BiblioPhilly, Internet Archive. CWAC Recording featuring both)
