Museum in a Box

We were out yesterday at Liverpool Central Library, just a 10 minute walk from our office. We did a quick repair job and gave an impromptu workshop on Museum in a Box.

"Ich musste sehr dafür sorgen, dass die Berichterstattung nicht zu Dan-Brown-mäßig wird," sagt Dirk Schultze, einer der beiden Entdecker einer mittelalterlichen Handschrift an der @stabi_berlin. Doch die Geschichte hinter diesem Manuskript liest sich mindestens genauso spannend wie der "Da Vinci Code": spkmagazin.de/2025/der-moench-

www.spkmagazin.deDer Mönch und die HandschriftVon dem Benediktinermönch Ranulf Higden (ca. 1280-1364) aus Chester ist nicht viel überliefert.
