Paradoxes of the Digital Age: The Cairo Genizah and the Material Text with Professor Marina Rustow
Digital technology and a critical mass of specialists are increasingly focused on the materiality of the medieval manuscripts of the Cairo Genizah. What happens when we look at Genizah manuscripts not as inert vehicles for written words but as objects with biographies and social lives? This event is free, however booking is required. To book, email Eventbrite by 25th October. Venue: Milstein Seminar Rooms, Cambridge University Library.
