Reading the Renaissance

You are warmly invited to the launch of Queens’ Library's latest exhibition, ‘Not a Day Without a Line: Past lives of Renaissance books in Queens’ Library’, with an opening talk by Dr Jason Scott-Warren (Senior Lecturer at the English Faculty and Director of the Centre for Material Texts), followed by wine and nibbles, and a view of the exhibition.

Featuring unique discoveries made during the Library's two-year ‘Renaissance Queens’’ cataloguing and digitisation project, the exhibition provides fascinating insights into how, why and by whom Queens’ books were read in the Renaissance period. 

The event will take place on Wednesday 28 February 2018 at 5.30pm in the Munro Room and Old Library of Queens’ College.

All welcome – please RSVP to library@queens.cam.ac.uk by Sunday 25 February.

The exhibition will then be open to the public from 1st-29th March, 1.30-4.30pm (open late on Thursday 15th March until 7.30pm), on weekdays.
