This lecture is part of a series entitled "Beyond the Book of Kells: The stories of eight other medieval manuscripts from the library of Trinity College Dublin."
In this first talk of the series, Dr Laura Cleaver, Ussher lecturer in Medieval Art, will discuss TCD MS. 92: An Illuminated Psalter and Hours. All that remains of an exceptionally fine psalter-cum-Book of Hours made in the fourteenth century, TCD MS 92 is a lavish manuscript that offers a window into complex religiosity of the late medieval English aristocracy, the margins that surround the pious prayers teeming with dragons, monkeys and grotesque beasts.
