Scheide Librarian Emeritus (Princeton) Paul S. Needham will discuss the history and production of the Catholicon, and present his findings that it was printed not from movable type, as previously thought, but instead from two-line castings — a discovery that continues to incite vigorous discussion in the field. The RBML’s recently acquired copy of the 1469 edition will be on display. This event is free and open to the public.
