Summary:
Penguin presents the audiobook release of Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts written and browse by Christopher de Hamel.
This is a book about why medieval manuscripts matter. Arriving in person with a significant lighted manuscript in the initial is rather like meeting an extremely famous person. We may all pretend that a well-known superstar is no different from anybody else, yet there can be an undeniable excitement in actually getting together with and speaking with a person of globe stature.
The idea for this book, which is entirely new, is to invite the reader into a romantic conversation with an array of the most well-known manuscripts around, also to let each of those manuscripts illuminate the Middle Ages and sometimes today’s world too. Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts invites the reader to accompany the writer on exclusive private visits to a dozen very varied choices, in different parts of the world, to discover twelve great manuscripts also to explore their traditional and intellectual significance.
