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.

On June 4, curator Dot Porter will bring out Ms. Codex 2141, a 16th century collection of approximately 20 prayers with calligraphic ornamentation, including prayers for the morning, forgiveness of sins, comfort and help, the sermon, receiving the Eucharist, and the evening meal; and to the Holy Trinity. Probably written in Nuremberg, Germany, no later than 1579.

Note that the Zoom links for Coffee With a Codex are reusable - register once and attend every Thursday at 12pm EST / 5pm GMT.
