A new course featuring one of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 Library카지노 게임 컬렉션�s newest acquisitions 카지노 게임 컬렉션� a hand-coloured 1493 edition of the Nuremberg Chronicle that is now part of the Schulich-Woolf Rare Book Collection 카지노 게임 컬렉션� is opening its doors to the public for an upcoming class.

Members of the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s and Kingston communities are invited to join professors Sharday Mosurinjohn and Richard Ascough (Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s School of Religion) and their students for a lecture in Religion and Art (RELS 345) on Wednesday, Oct. 10 at 11:30 am at the W.D. Jordan Rare Books and Special Collections in Douglas Library. The event, and the Nuremberg Chronicle, will be introduced by Principal Daniel Woolf.

In their remarks, Dr. Ascough and Dr. Mosurinjohn will explore multiple facets of the Nuremberg Chronicle, known as one of the most important and extensively illustrated books of the 15^th century.

For 15th century readers it was a chronicon 카지노 게임 컬렉션� a history 카지노 게임 컬렉션� made of text and image. As an artefact, the book embodies an important story, one of both the fracturing of Europe along socio-political and religious lines and its expansion through trade and exploration 카지노 게임 컬렉션� aspects of the globalization we see today.

Yet another story is that of the book itself, which has been around the world and in the hands of many owners and readers in its 500-year lifetime. The Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s copy is a stunningly beautiful volume in Latin printed by Anton Koberger on July 12, 1493 and hand-coloured in 1521 by its one-time owner Johann Kruyshaar of Lippstadt (1484-1555), better known as Joannes Cincinnius, a Westphalian humanist, author and scholar of considerable significance. It is a large first edition folio containing 1,809 woodcuts, ranging in size from small medallion portraits to large double-page maps. Joannes Cincinnius카지노 게임 컬렉션� marginal notes are found intermittently throughout the text.

While there are more than 1,240 extant copies of the Nuremberg Chronicle in Latin and 1,580 of it in German, not all are hand-coloured and of those many are not signed or dated. Joannes Cincinnius카지노 게임 컬렉션� signature and annotations make this copy unique. 

Now, residing in a collection that is part of a vast network of galleries, libraries, archives, and museums, this book is not only treasured and protected but available for study as artefact, literature, and visual art. Indeed, the images of European cities, maps, portraits, and other illustrations, plus the graphic designs and printing, have made this book famous.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�We카지노 게임 컬렉션�re delighted that our students have access to this inspiring book, and that we카지노 게임 컬렉션�re able to draw upon it in our course to connect ideas across disciplines and cultures,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Dr. Mosurinjohn.
