Bodleian Winter Exhibition
 8 DECEMBER - 3 MAY 2010 Crossing Borders: Hebrew Manuscripts as a meeting-place of cultures. The Bodleian's winter exhibition tells the story of how Jews, Christians and Muslims have together contributed to the development of the book. It illustrates the cultural exchange, the social interaction and the religious toleration between Jews and non-Jews in the Muslim and the Christian worlds during the late Middle Ages. The exhibition draws on the BodleianHebrew holdings, one of the largest and most important collections of Hebrew manuscripts in the world.
