A one-day International Seminar on Byzantine Manuscripts will be held at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), on May 17th, 2024.
BYZANTINE MANUSCRIPTS. New Insights into the Study of Byzantine Manuscripts: Text, Image, and Liturgy.
II MABILUS International Seminar
Dir. Manuel Castiñeiras
The study of Byzantine manuscripts has undergone a deep transformation in recent years. Digitization, laboratory analysis techniques and interdisciplinary projects have allowed a better knowledge of a very valuable written and illuminated heritage which, in the case of Spain, is very well represented in the collection of the National Library of Madrid and the Library of the Royal Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial. On the occasion of this international seminar, a series of experiences in the field of Byzantinology will be presented. They are helping to enhance and disseminate the Byzantine legacy from a wide range of perspectives. These talks will be complemented by the presentation of the book, The Akathistos Hymnos and Intermedial Compositional Processes in Later Byzantium-Sung, Written, Painted, edited by Jon C. Cubas (Palgrave, Cham, 2024).
