[Cynnabar] 3 Faiths exhibit at U of M

[Randy Asplund]

I posted about this a couple of weeks ago. Since that time I received  
a very kind offer from the head of the Rare Book Room of the Hatcher  
Library, Dr. Pablo Alvarez. He is willing to give us a personal tour  
of the exhibit if we are interested. If it is a date he cannot manage,  
he can have someone else give the tour. Its a very nice offer. Please  
write and tell me if you are interested and what days/evenings and  
times would work best. I am thinking either a Tuesday or Friday evening.

Sacred Hands: An exhibit of manuscripts with texts of the three  
Abrahamic faiths
http://www.lib.umich.edu/special-collections-library

This exhibit is in the Audubon Room, Library Gallery (Room 100,  
Hatcher Graduate Library). We are very pleased to have the opportunity  
to display treasures never shown in a physical exhibit before, such as  
a gathering of parchment leaves containing works by the Coptic writer  
Shenoute of Atripe (348-465) as well as unique examples of Islamic  
manuscripts.
The visitor will be also rewarded with an audio feature consisting of   
medieval music and the recording of four readings from some of the  
manuscripts on display.
