Summary:"Making the Renaissance Manuscript examines the making of the handwritten and hand-illuminated book during a time of great political, religious, and technological transformation in Europe. Through approximately forty loans from eight regional institutions, as well another forty items from Penn's own collections, this catalogue examines the full intellectual and artistic depth of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries through a varied selection of extraordinary manuscirpts, cuttings and incunables, from the Philadelphia region"--Front cover flap.
