11 Oct '17

Happening next month! 10th Annual Lawrence J. Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age November 2-4, 2017 Intertwined Worlds In partnership with the Rare Book Department<https://libwww.freelibrary.org/rarebooks/index.cfm> of the Free Library of Philadelphia, the Schoenberg Institute of Manuscript Studies (SIMS<http://schoenberginstitute.org/>) at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries is pleased to announce the 10th Annual Lawrence J. Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age. Despite the linguistic and cultural complexity of many regions of the premodern world, religion supplies the basis of a strong material and textual cohesion that both crosses and intertwines boundaries between communities. This year's theme, "Intertwined Worlds," will highlight the confluence of expressions of belief, ritual, and social engagement emerging in technologies and traditions of the world's manuscript cultures, often beyond a single religious context. It will consider common themes and practices of textual, artistic, literary, and iconographic production in religious life across time and geography, from ancient precedents to modern reception and dissemination in the digital age. This year's symposium features a keynote address by Phyllis Granoff, Lex Hixon Professor of Religious Studies, Yale University, on "The Mystery of Mistakes: Reflections on Indian Illustrated Manuscripts," to be held at the Free Library of Philadelphia at 6pm,on November 2, 2017 (reception beginning at 5pm). For more information and to register, please go to: http://www.library.upenn.edu/exhibits/lectures/ljs_symposium10.html .

New article on Caroline minuscule in Werden
by Anna Dorofeeva 26 Sep '17

26 Sep '17

I'm delighted to announce the publication of the first article in the project 'A Partial Survey of Continental Scribal Centres Writing Caroline Minuscule, c. 700 – 1000', run by the Network for the Study of Caroline Minuscule (NSCM), at http://litteracarolina.upenndigitalscholarship.org/ survey-project/scribal-centres <http://litteracarolina.upenndigitalscholarship.org>. The article on Werden, by Max Schmitz, is now available to download under a CC BY-NC-CA license. It brings together a full list of the fragments and manuscripts written in Caroline minuscule associated with the scribal centre at Werden to c. 1000, all searchable on our online database, making it a valuable resource. A full introduction to the project is also downloadable; it is recommended that you read this first, as it contains important information about the structure of the articles. Forthcoming articles will cover Freising, Metz and Lorsch. Several scribal centres are still unassigned, and expressions of interest for these are welcome; please visit the website for more details. Our grateful thanks go to APICES for the J.M.M. Hermans grant, which funded this project. In addition to the survey project, the NSCM website now offers a brief guide to Caroline minuscule script, as well as a blog series on European research libraries, written as a guide to visiting and working in these libraries by researchers who have travelled there in person. These may be of particular interest to students and early-career scholars. Best wishes, Anna Dorofeeva carolineminuscule(a)gmail.com
