Coffee with a Codex: Medical and astrological miscellany

An informal lunch or coffee time to meet virtually with Kislak curators and talk about one of the manuscripts from Penn's collections. Each week we'll feature a different manuscript and the expertise of one of our curators. Everyone is welcome to attend.

On December 7, Curator Dot Porter brought out LJS 463, a compilation of German texts concerning astrology and medicine, written in or around Buchau, Germany, in 1443. (OPenn, BiblioPhilly, CWAC recording)
