SUMMARY:Decoration of Hebrew Manuscripts after the Invention of Printing
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Grolier Club \n\n\nThrough an examination of Illustrated 18th century Hebrew manuscripts and decorated Scrolls of Esther we will explore the fascinating evolution of artistic Hebrew manuscript following the invention of the printing press. \nThis lecture explores the fascinating evolution of decorated Hebrew manuscript following the invention of the printing press. Despite the advent of printed books\, Jewish communities across Europe and the Middle East maintained a rich tradition of hand-decorated manuscripts for religious purposes. The talk will examine the artistic and cultural significance of these works\, highlighting how decorated Hebrew manuscripts remained a vibrant expression of Jewish identity and creativity well into the modern era. Sharon Liberman Mintz is the Curator of Jewish Art at the Library of the Jewish Theological Seminary and the Senior International Specialist of Judaica and Hebraica at Sotheby’s. \nEmile Schrijver is the General Director of the Jewish Cultural Quarter in Amsterdam and Professor of Jewish Book History at the University of Amsterdam. \n\n\n\n\nRegistration \nLivestream here: https://www.youtube.com/live/2P8hqdDDQLQ \nRegister here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/virtual-decoration-of-hebrew-manuscripts-after-the-invention-of-printing-tickets-1612590895779?aff=ebdsoporgprofile \nIf you are a Grolier Club member\, please register yourself and your guests via the Club website.

SUMMARY:Benjamin Albritton on California Bindings
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by FABS \nThe FABS Bindings Zoom Group welcomes Benjamin Albritton for a talk on California Bindings. \nStanford University Special Collections has many exceptional items in its care and Benjamin Albritton\, Rare Books Curator\, has selected a group of volumes related to the development of fine binding practice in California in the first half of the 20th century. The particular focus of this presentation will be two groups of fine bindings in Stanford’s collections: binders associated with The Bookbinders’ Guild of California first exhibition in 1902; and bindings displayed at the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition. These two collections provide a snapshot of binding practices and influences at two key periods in the development of the craft in California\, and Ben is eager to share these examples with us and encourage a dialogue about how to make these and other binding-related materials in Stanford’s collections more accessible to the broader community of practitioners and researchers. \nTo join the list for links and announcements\, contact Jennifer Larson: info@fabsocieties.org
