Laboratories of the Senses: Medieval Manuscript Facsimiles From Production to Pedagogy
Facsimiles of medieval manuscripts offer scholars and students
opportunities to experience and investigate in depth these complex
products of medieval minds and hands. Medieval and Renaissance
Studies at Carleton is pleased to welcome Giovanni Scorcioni, founder
of FacsimileFinder.com and expert in facsimile production, to lead a day
of engagement with this important tool for our research and teaching. In
addition to presentations by Giovanni Scorcioni, the day will include
time to share successful facsimile-based assignments, to discuss
challenges, and to workshop assignments with facsimiles to hand.
Please sign up here. Note: Signing up does not oblige one to attend the full day.
For more information or to express interest in presenting an assignment,
please contact William North (wnorth@carleton.edu).
