Coffee With A Codex is an informal lunch or coffee time to meet virtually with Kislak curators and talk about one of the manuscripts from Penn's collections. Each week we'll feature a different manuscript and the expertise of one of our curators. We meet over Zoom and everyone is welcome to attend.
On June 6, curator Dot Porter brought out Ms. Codex 1881, a late 15th-century collection of Latin astronomical treatises and tables of the 12th through 14th centuries, illustrated with six volvelles and numerous diagrams. Written in Germany, circa 1481.
