The New York Public Library possesses one of the finest collections of medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts in North America, yet its manuscript holdings are scarcely known to scholars, much less to a wide public audience. Medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts are vehicles of the collective memory of western European culture, and provide a material connection between the scribes, illuminators, and patrons who produced these works and the audiences who view them today. The works represent diverse genres, from Bibles and missals to romance literature and science texts. Drawn entirely from the Library's Spencer Collection and the Manuscripts and Archives Division, the 100 medieval and Renaissance manuscripts in the exhibition will focus on the 9th through the 16th centuries -- seven hundred years of profound political, ecclesiastical, social, and intellectual change in Western Europe and the world.

Welcome readers!

This post is being sent from sunny and warm Las Vegas, Nevada. Bethany and I have lived here since January of '05, when we moved here to follow a job offer for me.

I work in a printing company here, part of the Mankato, MN company which I had worked for in the past. I am a Prepress System Administrator, which means that I maintain mostly Mac (with a few dirty Windows) systems which we use to prepare customer files for printing.
