Medieval manuscripts document the preservation of the text until the invention of movable type printing by Gutenberg around 1450. The early printed Bibles include versions in Latin and Greek\, and several that show the struggles among various political factions and church reformers to control the translating of the Scriptures into the language of the people. See the King James Bible of 1611 that became the accepted standard.\n\nFor Audubon Room hours\, see https://www.lib.umich.edu/audubon-room UID:2220-918606@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/2220 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:visual arts LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Audubon Room/First Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20090722T143534 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20100130T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20100130T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ida: Darwinius masillae DESCRIPTION:\"Ida\,\" a new exhibit in the Exhibit Museum's Rotunda\, displays a high-resolution cast of an extremely rare fossil discovered in 1983 near Messel\, Germany\, but only recently made available for study. The fossil has proven to be a “link” between the prosimian and simian (\"anthropoid\") primate lineages. It has \"advanced\" front teeth (incisors and canines) and second toes like those of monkeys\, and is broadly representative of what human primate ancestors may have looked like during the Eocene epoch 47 million years ago. Ida (prounded \"eeda\") is named after after the daughter of Dr Jørn Hurum\, the Norwegian vertebrate paleontologist who secured one section of the fossil from an anonymous owner\, and led the research. Ida was about eight months old\, or the equivalent of a six-year-old human. Publication of a paper on the discovery was accompanied by a book\, The Link: Uncovering Our Earliest Ancestors by Colin Tudge\, and a documentary shown on the History Channel (US)\, BBC One (UK)\,and various stations in Germany and Norway. U-M paleontologist Philip Gingerich and U-M anthropologist B. Holly Smith were two members of the \"dream team\" invited to study Ida. The exhibit will be on display through May 2010.

This two-part symposium explores new practices in documentary photography through the work of some of its most important contemporary practitioners. The first session is devoted to the work of Alec Soth. Soth (b. 1969) is a member of Magnum Photos. He rose to international prominence with the publication of his first monograph\, Sleeping by the Mississippi\, in 2004. A visual record of the people and things Soth encountered during his travels along the 2\,300-mile river\, it revealed Soth to be a new and important voice in the tradition of lyrical documentary developed by Walker Evans\, Robert Frank\, and others. Since then Soth has published NIAGARA (2006)\, Fashion Magazine (2007)\, Dog Days\, Bogotá (2007) and The Last Days of W (2008)\, projects that have cemented his reputation of one of United States most important contemporary photographers. Soth's work is represented in major public and private collections\, including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, the Museum of Fine Arts Houston\, and the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis\; and his photographs have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions\, including the 2004 Whitney and São Paulo Biennials. He is represented by Gagosian Gallery in New York and Weinstein Gallery in Minneapolis.
