The Bible Manuscripts Engagement Diary, 2000 Features 24 Beautiful illustrations from The British Library's unparalleled collection of bible manuscripts. Handsomely produced in a convenient large-format for home and office use, it is printed in colour throughout, with 24 full-page plates and 60 other smaller details. The British Library diary for the year 2000 marks the millennium with a celebration of the Library's collection of Bible manuscripts, one of the most important in the world. The Library holds some of the earliest manuscripts of the New Testament in Greek, as well as many manuscripts of the Old Testament in Hebrew, the Bible in Latin and in most other western and eastern languages. Beautifully written and splendidly decorated, some of these are the finest specimens of their times of the arts of calligraphy, illumination and miniature painting. Others, more humble in outward appearance, preserve significant and unique readings which have shaped the modern text of the Bible. Sturdily produced in a large week-to-a-page format, with colour illustrations throughout and a cloth quarter binding, The British Library Engagement Diary 2000 will have a wide appeal as a practical and attractive gift. A companion Address Book, in the same large format, is a perfect complement to the Diary.
