SUMMARY:Medieval & Renaissance Manuscripts: Designing the Book
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \n \nBefore the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg in the mid-15th century\, books were designed\, written\, and illustrated by hand. Today these handmade manuscripts are highly valued\, and greatly sought after by collectors and institutions around the world. \n This presentation addresses two aspects of illustration in medieval and Renaissance manuscripts before the dominance of the printed book. First\, it defines the components and principles of decoration that are featured in many manuscripts\, ranging from full-page miniatures to the minor decoration of small painted initials and line-fillers. Second\, it focuses on several types and genres of manuscripts\, including illuminations in Bibles\, liturgical books\, legal texts\, classical works\, and the extremely popular Books of Hours. The overall theme of the presentation is how manuscript illustrations help the reader navigate through a text\, whether it is written in Latin or in a vernacular language. \n An in-person and virtual presentation by Barbara A. Shailor\, PhD FSA\, author\, researcher\, professor of paleography and codicology\, and President\, The American Trust for the British Library \n ** The Windle-Loker Lecture Series on the History of the Illustrated Book \n** Co-presented & co-hosted by The American Trust for The British Library \nTo register for the Virtual event: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_hYrD7q2ySEGz45gQoHmKUQ#/registration

He will discuss his experiences\, humorous and otherwise\, from researching his master’s thesis and doctoral dissertation to his fifteen books.

His teaching career spanned over 40 years at both Yale University and Winthrop University. He was the inaugural Ellison Capers Palmer\, Jr. Professor of History at Winthrop University and was the first Winthrop faculty member to be named South Carolina Professor of the Year. \nDuring his tenure at Winthrop\, he was awarded the Outstanding Junior Professor Award and several years later was named Distinguished Professor. Upon retirement\, the Governor of South Carolina awarded him The Order of the Silver Crescent\, which is the state’s highest civilian award for significant contributions\, leadership\, volunteerism\, and lifelong influence within a region or community. For those who love football and movies\, Dr. Silverman was one of the Captains of the T.C. Williams High School football team immortalized in the movie “Remember the Titans.” \nTo Register for this Webinar: \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Zomi1iLkTlGSZnUz9M7-_w \n[you will receive an email confirming your registration] \nFor More Webinars check out the Archives
