The Book of Kells is an illuminated manuscript from the 9th century containing the four Gospels of the New Testament. While its original purpose was religious, it is considered a masterpiece of Celtic art. Experts believe it was first created at the monastery of Iona before being moved to Kells for protection from Viking raids. It remained at Kells monastery until the 16th century when it was given to Trinity College Dublin where it remains today. The extraordinary artwork and intricate illuminations found throughout are estimated to have taken 30 years to complete by hand.
The document discusses the evolution of books from early writing systems through the development of paper, binding techniques, and printing technologies. It notes that early forms of writing included clay tokens, pictographs, cuneiform, hieroglyphs and others. Paper was developed as a lighter writing surface from papyrus, vellum, and later paper from China. The codex form of folded pages bound together emerged. Block printing and movable type allowed larger scale reproduction starting in China, then Gutenberg's printing press revolutionized production in Europe. Developments like the linotype, offset lithography, desktop publishing, and digital books continued advancing the medium.
The document summarizes the history and development of books and mass media from ancient times to the modern era. It discusses the origins of writing systems, the development of paper and early books, the invention of the printing press and moveable type, and the rise of mass publishing and literacy. It also covers the modern book publishing industry, including publishers, authors, booksellers, and new developments like e-books and self-publishing.
Celtic designs often feature intertwining lines and are commonly seen in Celtic crosses.

The document provides examples of Celtic designs and discusses where they are often seen today and in historical works of art from Irish monks.
The Secret of Kells is an animated film from 2005 that is loosely based on the creation of the historic Book of Kells illuminated manuscript. The film follows Brendan, a young monk, as he helps the monk Aiden complete the book while discovering the world outside the abbey walls. It uses the mystery around the book's origins to craft an ending that explores themes of preservation of faith and culture against invading forces.
Brendan is a 12-year-old monk who lives in the Abbey of Kells in 9th century Ireland. When his uncle's brother Aidan arrives, he decides to teach Brendan the art of manuscript illumination to help finish a secret book. Brendan discovers this art and leaves the abbey for the first time to gather materials. The Book of Kells is an illuminated Latin manuscript containing the Gospels that was created by Celtic monks around 800 AD, possibly started in Iona and continued in Kells. It remained in Kells until being sent to Dublin in 1654 and has been kept at Trinity College since 1661, making it one of the finest illuminated manuscripts remaining from the Middle Ages.

The document provides a history of pillars in Freemasonry from early operative mason times to their modern symbolic role in lodges. It traces how pillars evolved from references in the 1410 Cooke Manuscript to depictions in the 1700s of wardens flanked by two pillars with cupped tops. By the late 1700s, pillars had diminished in size and were placed on wardens' pedestals, with globes later added atop the pillars. The document summarizes that pillars have remained a continuous theme in masonry and are still present in some lodges today.

The document provides a history of libraries from ancient times to the modern era. It discusses how the earliest libraries began as collections of clay tablets and scrolls in places like Egypt and Mesopotamia. Some important early libraries included the Library of Alexandria, founded in the 3rd century BC, which was a major center of knowledge but was eventually destroyed. Libraries grew again during the Roman Empire and Middle Ages within monasteries, which helped preserve knowledge. The modern library system developed from the 15th century onward with innovations like the printing press and movement for public libraries in the 19th century led by Andrew Carnegie. The Library of Congress was established in 1800 and has grown to be the largest library in the world.

Early Medieval Art developed after the fall of the Western Roman Empire and preceded the Romanesque period of the 11th century. Christian monks played a key role in preserving art by creating illuminated manuscripts. Northern European peoples like the Merovingians and Anglo-Saxons developed artistic styles using interlaced designs and abstract animal imagery. Under Charlemagne's empire, Carolingian art revived Roman forms and focused on book illuminations. Ottonian art flourished in Germany with architectural styles influenced by Byzantium and illuminated manuscripts featuring linear figures.
The document discusses several artifacts from Anglo-Saxon and Viking cultures including a round fibula from the 7th century AD decorated with gemstones, a purse lid from the Sutton Hoo ship burial decorated with gold and garnet plaques depicting animals, and a carved animal head found on the Oseberg ship burial in Norway from the 9th century AD. The artifacts demonstrate the importance of animals and animal-style artwork in Norse and Anglo-Saxon culture as symbols of strength and depictions on functional objects like weapons, jewelry, and ships.

The Lever Museum in London was one of the first private museums open to the paying public in the late 18th century. Its collections included a large number of birds acquired by its owner Sir Ashton Lever, as well as ethnographic objects from the Pacific collected by Captain Cook. However, Lever refused access to the "common people" and only allowed certain classes of visitors. This highlighted the emerging debate around public access to knowledge and new ideas of museums as places for both education and entertainment for all of society during the Enlightenment period.
Carolus Magnus (Charlemagne) united much of Western Europe under his rule in the late 8th-early 9th centuries. He established new academies, encouraged the copying of manuscripts, and firmly established the power of the Catholic Church.

Freemasonry 095 the pocket history of freemasonryColinJxxx
This document provides a summary of theories about the origin of Freemasonry. It discusses groups such as the Druids, Culdees, Rosicrucians, Essenes, ancient mystery schools, and various guilds of stonemasons. While some similarities exist, there is little evidence to prove a direct lineage from any ancient group. The most plausible connection may be to medieval guilds of stonemasons, but operative masonry was not proven to have esoteric rituals until more modern times. The exact origin of Freemasonry remains uncertain due to a lack of clear historical records from earlier periods.

Beard-pullers: two pairs of
confronting men pull each
other’s beard or their own one
Interpretations by scholars:
• these images illustrate human
conflict
• they evoke the entanglements of
human relationships and emotions
• show the spiritual community
• show the intimate friendships
among the monks who created
the manuscript
13. The “Chi Rho” page
Chi Rho Page. Book of Kells. Iona, Scotland, 8th-9th century
Element of Earth: Two rats
fighting for a communion host
Two cats with mice on their
backs survey the scene
St Augustine (not transubstantiation): the
unbelieving mouse can not eat God’s flesh,
a spiritual sign dependent upon faith
St Thomas Aquinas (transubstantiation): the mouse, along
with the unbeliever eats the Lord's flesh (the bread has been
converted into that substance. Faith plays no role here)
Medieval conundrum: If Jesus says “I am
the bread of life and whoever eats of this
bread shall have eternal life,” then what
happens to the mouse who eats the
Eucharist? And what about the cat that
eats the mouse?
