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 November 1 (rescheduled from September 27), Curator Dot Porter will bring out Ms. Codex 1590, a Secular (as opposed to monastic) antiphonary for liturgical use in Lyon, containing the chants of the Divine Office for major feasts and Sundays. Written in France, probably Lyon, in the last quarter of the 13th or first quarter of the 14th century. See the record here: https://franklin.library.upenn.edu/catalog/FRANKLIN_9949613113503681
