RGME Symposium 2014 Program & abstracts corrected]

The “Save the Date” Announcement (Save the Date 16-17 May 2014) set the stage by describing the intentions and scope of the subject. To sum up:

This symposium explored the workings of workshops, as revealed through the traces of artists, craftsmen, scribes, authors, editors, printers, and patrons, across a wide range of subjects, regions, and materials, in transitions from classical antiquity and early Christianity through the long Middle Ages and thence to the early modern period and beyond. We seek to discern how these editorial agents of whatever kind shaped and reshaped materials — tangible and intangible — in transmitting the legacy of the past, often in the process to form works which perhaps seemed more viable in changing times, expectations, and systems of belief. Memory may hold a significant place among the materials, processes, and forces at work in the processes of collecting, shaping, and, in many cases, transforming complex bodies of evidence in a robust or precarious voyage from the past.

The Research Group on Manuscript Evidence warmly thank the Sponsors, Donors, and Contributors to the Symposium, which formed part of the celebrations for our 2014 Anniversary Year. Other celebrations have included our Sessions at the 2014 International Congress on Medieval Studies in May, along with an Anniversary Reception. Read the rest of this entry →

Identity & Authenticity

Creating, Recreating, Transmitting & Preserving Identities Across Time & Place

We held a Symposium at Princeton University on 22 & 23 March 2013 with the theme of “Identity & Authenticity: Creating, Recreating, Transmitting & Preserving Identities Across Time & Place”. Here we publish the Symposium Posters, Program, and Abstracts of the Papers, with thanks to all our Sponsors, Contributors, and Participants.

Poster 2

The challenges of shaping, reshaping, maintaining, conveying, and validating identity, both personal and collective, are perennial human concerns. Our symposium explored subjects, regions, and materials from the early medieval period to the present day. Presentations considered, for example, Western European and Syriac manuscript discoveries, Byzantine liturgical textiles, medieval seal-matrices and “forgeries,” Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic magical recipes from the Cairo Genizah, the transmission of Islamic paper, the reliquary of John the Baptist owned by the Knights of Malta and the Tzars, the medieval-style Hammond Castle in Massachusetts, the challenges and opportunities of collecting medieval manuscripts nowadays, and digitization projects dedicated to manuscripts and archives for teaching and research.

2009 Anniversary Symposium “Gathering at the Threshold”

January 1, 2014 in Anniversary, Conference Announcement, Events, Photographic Exhibition

Gathering at the Threshold:
A Celebratory Symposium

In 2009 and 2010 the Research Group celebrated the twentieth anniversary of its formation as an entity in England and the tenth anniversary of its formation as a nonprofit educational corporation based in Princeton, New Jersey. The stages of our history and the variety of our activities are reported in the pages of our Profile and History.

The date of our “official birthday” as a New Jersey Nonprofit Corporation occurs in November. We celebrated our Tenth/Twentieth Anniversary of 2009 with a gathering of Trustees, Honorary Trustees, Honorary Associates, Volunteers, and newcomers.

1995‒2000 Symposia on “The Transmission of the Bible”

January 1, 2014 in Abstracts of Conference Papers, Conference Announcement, Events

“The Transmission of the Bible”
A Series of Annual Symposia (1995‒2000)

[First published on our first website on 19 April 2006, with updates]

Beginning in 1995, the Research Group jointly sponsored a series of Annual Symposia on “The Transmission of the Bible,” organized by Mildred Budny and held at various centers in turn. The series began with the invitation by our Associate Jane Rosenthal to hold a symposium soon after the Research Group moved its principal base to the United States in the autumn of 1994. Both Princeton University and Douglass College of Rutgers University hosted two symposia in the rotation.

Photographic Exhibitions & Masterclasses (1990–)

January 1, 2014 in Events, ICMS, Manuscript Studies, Photographic Exhibition

[Published on 1 January 2014, with updates]

Now in Bembino

Since 1990, sometimes as part of its Seminars, Workshops, and Conference Sessions, the Research Group has held photographic exhibitions on Anglo-Saxon and related manuscripts at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge; the University of Oxford; and elsewhere.

Mostly using photographs by Mildred Budny, they include many of the Research Group Seminars on “The Evidence of Manuscripts” as well as these occasions:

“The Integrated Approach to Manuscript Studies” (Tokyo, 1992)

Exhibition held with variations at the University of Tokyo at Komaba, at Chuo University, Tokyo, and at Aoyama Gakuin University, Tokyo (November and December 1992). The Exhibition Booklet is now downloadable here (2016).

“The Integrated Approach to Manuscript Studies” (International Congress on Medieval Studies, 1993 & 1994)

The previous exhibition held with further variations twice at Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo at the International Congress on Medieval Studies (May 1993 and May 1994).

These exhibitions formed part of the contributions by the Research Group on Manuscript Evidence and its Director to the Congress, as reported for our Session at the 28th International Congress on Medieval Studies and Session at the 29th International Congress on Medieval Studies. The 1994 exhibition was designed to accompany the Dedication ceremony for the new Richard Rawlinson Center for Anglo-Saxon Studies. The current activities of that Center are reported here: About Us at the Richard Rawlinson Center.

“The Monastic Library: Books from St. Augustine’s Abbey, Canterbury” (Princeton University, 1995)

Exhibition held at Wilson College, Princeton University (March 1995).

*****

Since 2006, invited Master Classes taught by Mildred Budny, in Princeton and elsewhere, have provided instruction on aspects and techniques of responsibly photographing manuscripts, documents, and works of art for purposes of research, preservation, exhibition, and publication. Some of these classes accompany, and augment, our continuing work on Genealogies & Archives.

Front Cover Volume I: Text

Front Cover Volume II: Plates

Our publications or co-publications include photographs of the manuscripts themselves and related materials (many or mostly by Mildred Budny). Some publications contain so generous a number of photographs as to constitute a form of exhibition, as with the two-volume illustrated catalogue of Insular, Anglo-Saxon, and Early Anglo-Norman Manuscript Art at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. They are listed in our Publications.

While the world in recent years has turned widespread and extensively funded attention to the production, proliferation, and presentation of digital images reproducing manuscripts for online exhibition, the photographic work of the Research Group on Manuscript Evidence in its foundational collaborative and integrated study of manuscripts, before the dawn of the Digital Age, represents an example of the collaborative efforts to produce and reproduce images as accurately as possible so as to demonstrate the evidence and to encourage responsible interpretations from a wide and integrated range of specialists, students, and interested “bystanders” alike.

An example demonstrating these multiple approaches is our 2014 Seminar on “Manuscripts & Their Photographs”.

In August 2008, in exploring new developments and potential for our first website [launched in 2007 as www.manuscriptevidence.org, and then archived as http://www.manuscriptevidence.org/data/ during the transition to our second, updated website, launched in 2014 as manuscriptevidence.org/wpme/; You are Here], we were granted generous permission to photograph a group of medieval manuscript fragments and documents in a private collection, and to publish these images here, when the site allowed.

The photography is designed to show the whole objects, as well as details.

We invite, conduct, and report research on these materials. With their accompanying descriptions and assessments, the display may constitute a virtual exhibition.

We welcome questions or comments about the images. We hope that exhibiting them in this way will promote fuller knowledge of their nature, context, significance, and relatives.

We may also use this opportunity to discuss suitable techniques of photographing manuscripts and other artifacts responsibly, with respect to the directions of scholarly interests as well as curatorial and conservational concerns. Not always do these interests and concerns need to stand at odds with or against each other, especially with communication and collaboration. Such discussion may function, for example, as form of a tipsheet or masterclass.

As part of this process, we continue to present results and to discuss the issues involved in photographic recording of manuscript and related materials. An example is recorded at web.princeton.edu/sites/medieval/calendar_f10.html, with its accompanying Poster. We thank the owners of the image and of the photograph for permission for reproduction on the poster.

[Update]

And now, we offer fruits, with illustrations, of these interlinked processes of photography, research, photography, research, reflection, revision, and reports, in our series of blogposts (since 2015) on Manuscript Studies. Its Contents List (shown there) is growing.

Besides, along the way, we have also been able to open a series of Galleries on this website (since 2014) showcasing, generously from another private collection, a set of images of scripts and texts across the centuries and in a variety of languages:

Scripts on Parade
Texts on Parade

Have a look! More to come . . .

Please let us know if you recognize any of the manuscripts from which some of these fragments have come!
