Making Medieval Manuscripts by Christopher De Hamel
Based mainly on examples in the Bodleian Library, this lavishly illustrated account tells the story of manuscript production from the early Middle Ages to the high Renaissance. Each stage of production is described, from the preparation of the parchment, pens, paints and inks to the writing of the scripts and the illumination of the manuscript.
Christopher de Hamel, formerly of Sotheby’s, is a Fellow of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. He is the author of 'Bibles' (Bodleian, 2011), and his most recent book is 'Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts' (Allen Lane, 2016).
