====== Celebrating the work of Aldus Manutius ======


14 January-6 April 2015, University of Glasgow Library (Hillhead Street,
Glasgow, G12 8QE, Scotland) 

Curated by Michelle Craig 


A small display of **Aldine incunables** has been put together. This will be on show in our foyer in **Special Collections** on level 12 of the library until April 2015. We have chosen three books that highlight Aldus’ major contribution to print culture: his first book, Constantinus **Lascaris’  Erotemata** (1495); **Jamblichus**: De mysteriis Aegyptiorum, Chaldaeorum, Assyriorum (1497) – one of the many Platonic works that Aldus published; and a **Psalter** (1498) printed using one of Manutius’ Greek cursive typefaces.


**Free** admission
