Abstract
|
:
|
Greek manuscript production has a long and fascinating history, covering almost every area of intellectual, religious, literary, and administrative endeavor in the Greek-speaking world of the medieval and early modern eras. Exereunēseis sta cheirographa tēs Gennadeiou Bibliothēkēs features eleven essays on the rich and exquisite Greek manuscript collection of the Gennadius Library. Each of the authors is a leading manuscript scholar, and each chapter is illustrated by color plates highlighting some of the most interesting and beautiful examples held in the Library's care.<p>The Gennadius Library of the Amerikanikē Scholē Klasikōn Spoudōn stēn Athēna and the Hellēnikē Palaiographikē Hetaireia have joined together to produce this volume on Greek manuscripts in both Greek and English editions. Their publications marks the relaunch of the Gennadeion monograph series and allows the American School of Classical Studies to continue its commitment to bilingual publishing.
