Dear Members and Followers,
I
have had some great responses from members providing items for these posts and the emails that I am sending out at this time. I'll send and post them out at different times, so you don't get
overwhelmed with too many things to do all at once.
One just to hand is from Pam Forbes which is time sensitive, thank you Pam this course looks great.

In reply for your request for interesting items - there is a free
course from Trinity College Dublin, currently running online about the
Book of Kells. It started 9 March, you can still join but you have
limited time to finish.
It covers
- Where and how the manuscript was made
- The social context from which the manuscript emerged, including early medieval faith and politics.
- The artistic context of the manuscript, reflecting local and international styles.
- The theology and interpretations of the text.
- How and why the manuscript survived
- The Book of Kells and contemporary culture.
You can join at Ireland and the Book of Kells History Course - FutureLearn
Keep safe and remember to check on your friends.
Cathy
