Genevieve's Journeys

 buttongirl  was asking about my Luttrell class - it's basically a guided walk through the Luttrell facsimile that my sweetie got me a few years ago.

I only know of one other person in the SCA who owns a copy, so scribes and 14th c mavins are regular attendees to see the next-best-thing to seeing it in person.

I still haven't done the thorough, page-by-page study and read-through I promised myself when I got it, but I have done classes on it. The easiest one is an overview; the making-of, the dominant themes in the artwork, the well-known artwork (agricultural scenes) compared to the mostly-unknown artwork.

I also have a class about (surprise!) the heraldry in the Luttrell Psalter. 

I have the happy opportunity to attend this year's Canterbury Faire for the first time.

On this trip, I'm planning to bring my facsimile of the Luttrell Psalter.

I'm somewhat late contacting the A&S organizers at CF, but I'm hoping to offer an informal class about the psalter at the faire: an opportunity for scribes and other interested readers to look through it, ask questions, discuss and generally ooooh and aaaah.

It would be especially of interest to scribes and illuminators, heraldic artists, 14th c. costumers, and general 14th c English mavins.

All that's required is a (dry, sheltered) space with table and chairs.
