Byzantine Bookbinding Lecture and Exhibition at the RAS

Posted: 15 Nov 2012 07:48 AM PST

This evening, 15th November, the Society is delighted to welcome Professor Lucy-Anne Hunt (Professor Emerita, Manchester Metropolitan University) to present "Observations on some Byzantine and other Christian manuscripts and book covers from the medieval Eastern Mediterranean". This talk marks the opening of a two week exhibition of contemporary bookbindings inspired by Byzantine bookbindings which will also be held at the Society.



The bookbindings exhibited have been created in the last 12 months by art students and others at creative workshops in Bucharest, Budapest, Athens and Campobasso (Italy). This is a STUDITE project supported by the Culture Programme of the European Union and partnered with International Academic Projects.


The lecture and subsequent exhibition are free and open to all. However to view the bookbindings please contact Camilla Larsen to make an appointment - Tel: 02073884539 or cl@royalasiaticsociety.org
