    Absolutely incredible - imagine how steady your hands would have to be to paint in that much detail? And the patience required . . .

    Hi sir,I want to ask you some questions:
    1.what is the difference between:philology,codicology,manuscriptology,paleography,manuscript studies?
    2.do they include historical linguistics?
    3.can a person study all codices and manuscripts around the world?
    4.if they are different from each other,is there a field that covers them all?
    5.how can I self study them?
    6.what sources should I use to study them(considering that I am in 11th grade so the sources must be from complete beginning to most advanced)?
    Thank you so much❤️

    What is unfortunate here is that historians involved in this exhibition never bothered to look up Jean de France's proper and complete title... it almost seems as if they had not done their job thoroughly. . . Jean de France was: Duc de Touraine et de Berry (Duke of Touraine and of Berry) - AND - was Dauphin de Viennois (Dauphin of Viennois). ...as son of Charles VI 'Le Bien-Aimé' ('The Beloved') of France, he was also Prince of France ...so, much more than a duke here. . . Shame really. . .

      Actually, if you listen to the presentation, you will hear him refer to the Duke as the prince, and he references the brothers working in princely quarters. I believe that these men are highly knowledgeable about their subject and would be stupefied if they didn't know the information you gave. If they didn't give his full name it was most likely because it is cumbersome and not important. They are, after all, focusing on the work.

    @cfh99nyc Yahshua Messiah did not start the doctrines of Free will, Original Sin, Trinitarianism, Purgatory, Sun-day worship, veneration of idols/graven images, Luciferianism. All these are doctrines of institutions such as Catholicism/Protestantism and have no basis in Biblical Christianity. You must have him confused with Jesus/Mithras/Apollo/Sol Invictus....silly

      Then look into the technical aspect of how these extremely old books were made. There's a video showing how the animal skins were pulled and scraped to make the pages, along with what pigments were used for color, gold foil, a scribe writing and how the book was finally bound. Wish I could own a book from that time.
