Thursday, February 29 at 5:00pm<\/strong> | Italian Research Seminar: M.A. Students Presentations<\/a> (University of Notre Dame) \u2014 This semester’s speakers are: Fabiola D’Angelo and Peter Scharer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the spring exhibition, Mapping the Middle Ages: Marking Time, Space, and Knowledge<\/em><\/strong>, primary objects bring to the fore the tension between literal and figurative arrangements of space, time, and knowledge during the Middle Ages. Geography, whether real or imagined, manifests on the page to convey a variety of spatial arrangements: topography, pilgrimage, peripatetic liturgical procession, and boundary marking. The materiality of medieval manuscript books expresses a similar reality through geographic colophons, regional markings of book production, devotional locals, and even the dispersing of manuscripts through modern-day biblioclasty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To map the Middle Ages is to journey through the space created by the objects and the individuals who used them. The manuscripts in this installation are drawn from the collection of the University of Notre Dame\u2019s Hesburgh Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This exhibition is curated by David T. Gura, PhD, Curator of Ancient and Medieval Manuscripts.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The current spotlight exhibits are Football and Community at Historically Black Colleges and Universities<\/strong> and A Warning Against Rum in Early America<\/strong>. Both spotlights will change out in February, check our website for more details in the near future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Please join us for the following public events and exhibits being hosted in Rare Books and Special Collections: Thursday, February 1 at 5:00pm | Italian Research Seminar: “Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s Way of Seeing Water.
