Sandars Lecture: A Cabinet of English Literary Treasures: Reflections of Fifty Years of Book Collecting

Wed 8 March 2017

McCrum Lecture Theatre

The second in this series of Sandars Lectures will focus primarily on John Dee's annotated copy of John Hardyng's Chronicle, printed by Richard Grafton in 1543. It will examine the interaction of this most learned of owners with a fascinating and politically charged text, but also place book and owner in the wider context of Queen Elizabeth's scheme for the British Empire.
