Manuscripts in the Curriculum

Les Enluminures is sponsoring a unique program that enables colleges, universities, and other educational institutions in North America and Canada to borrow a select group of diverse manuscripts dating from the thirteenth century onwards for teaching. The pilot program will run for three years on a semester basis starting in January 2017. Central to its philosophy is the integration of real manuscripts into the curriculum in courses where students can work closely with original material under the guidance of a professor. Exhibition of the manuscripts is also envisioned. There is a nominal fee that contributes to out-of-pocket expenses of the program. A description of the program, the schedule, teaching guidelines, and descriptions of the manuscripts are available online: http://www.textmanuscripts.com/curatorial-services/manuscripts.
