<p class="MsoPlainText"><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Workshop description</span></b><span style="font-size:12.0pt">: Also known as the “Gnostic Gospels,” the codices were discovered in 1945 in Upper Egyptian town of Nag Hammadi. These codices are thought
to have been written during the fourth century and are the oldest codices to have survived with some of their bindings still intact. There were thirteen codices found, but only twelve bindings survived. The codices were leather bound with Coptic text written
on papyrus sheets. The writings in these codices include fifty-two mostly Gnostic treatises, but they also include other works, such as the Corpus Hermeticum and a partial translation/alteration of Plato’s Republic. One of the most famous writings is the Gospel
of Thomas which is only complete in the Nag Hammadi Codices.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">This course is for archivists, librarians, or anyone who is interested in learning and teaching the history of the codex. The class will begin with a short discussion of early codex formats, including binding
models of the Nag Hammadi codices. Each participant will make a small, historically accurate Nag Hammadi Codex VIII, which can be used for teaching and display. No previous experience necessary.
