Medieval manuscripts highlight of Lilly workshops at Indiana University


British scribe and illuminator Patricia Lovett will be this year?s guest for Indiana University?s Mediaevalia at the Lilly, an annual event focused on the Lilly Library?s large collection of rare medieval manuscripts and books.

The event is directed by Professor Hildegard Keller with Indiana University?s Germanic Department and Medieval Studies Institute and Cherry Williams, the Lilly?s curator of manuscripts.

As part of the event, Lovett will teach two workshops demonstrating calligraphy, illumination and manuscript-making. The workshops will be held on Thursday, Nov. 3, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 to 5 p.m. in the Slocum Room of the Lilly Library. Both workshops are free and open to the public, but registration is requested by calling the library at 812-855-2452.
