Modern technology, such as digitization and multi-spectral imaging, is aiding papyrologists in all of these efforts.\n\nTexts on display are some of the highlights of the collection. They include a wonderful drawing of an elephant, a letter from a newly enlisted soldier to his mother, and, of course, some pages of the oldest manuscript with letters of St. Paul (one of the most famous texts of the collection).\n\nIn its 90-year history, the University of Michigan Papyrus Collection has trained more students and scholars in the field of papyrology than any other institution in North America. Founded by the visionary Francis W. Kelsey, the Papyrus Collection has been the training ground for papyrologists from around the world and home to many great resident scholars, such as Herbert and Louise Youtie, Ludwig Koenen, and Traianos Gagos, who died on April 26, 2010.\n\nPapyrology is the field of scholarship that deciphers and studies the texts written \u2013primarily on papyrus\u2013 by people living in the ancient Mediterranean world between 2,500 BCE and 1,000 CE. Most of these texts are found in Egypt where the climate is dry enough to preserve this fragile material. It is a highly specialized and technical field, requiring intensive training in language (Egyptian, ancient Greek, Latin, Arabic), history, and the unique set of skills necessary for reading original documents.\n\nThe exhibit is open during Audubon Room hours: Sun 1-7pm, Mon-Fri 8:30-7pm, Sat 10am-6pm.\n\nThis Exhibit is in Honor of Traianos Gagos (1960-2010).", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"3497-917770@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/3497", "building_id":"1000181", "building_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "campus_maps_id":"65", "room":"Audubon Room", "location_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":[], "website":"http:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/audubon-room\/events\/papyrus", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"University Library", "group_id":"1186", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UMichLibrary\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":90, "first_occurrence":917718 } , "3384-917829": { "datetime_modified":"20100826T223421", "datetime_start":"20101113T090000", "datetime_end":"", "has_end_time":0, "date_start":"2010-11-13", "date_end":"", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"The View From Below", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"The View From Below: Photography and Innovation on the Lower East Side", "event_subtitle":"Photography and Innovation on the Lower East Side", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"Curator: Sara Blair, University of Michigan", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"3384-917829@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/3384", "building_id":"1005179", "building_name":"202 S.

Presented each summer in Ypsilanti's Frog Island Park by WEMU and The Ark from1982 to 2001, it featured diverse musical styles\u2013Jazz, Blues, Zydeco, and other musical styles that grew out of the African American musical heritage. It was known at the time as \u201cthe world's biggest block party!\u201d\u009d Those who attended remember fun, cultural diversity, unpredictable weather and fantastic music! Wear your summertime festival attire\u2013your vintage Frog Island Festival t-shirt if you have one!\n\nMyrick \"Freeze\" Guillory inherited some great songs and a hot band from his mother, Queen Ida (who performed at Frog Island). Freeze is charging ahead to carry on the cultural traditions of zydeco music through high-energy, creative shows. Freeze, who played his first shows with the Queen Ida band in the mid-1970s, has become a featured performer with the group. Although he's committed to the time honored waltzes and peppery two-steps that characterize Ida's shows, Freeze adds some solid rhythm-and-blues numbers to his show, in keeping with one of Zydeco's most important traditions\u2013 innovation.\n\nAl Hill is a soul singer, a blues piano master, and an outstanding guitarist. His music is rooted in the blues, but pulls freely from soul, country, and jazz. A mainstay of the Detroit music scene for years, he relocated to Nashville in 2008. Don't miss your chance to experience him in a rare local show. \n\nThe evening will also feature live jazz from the Community High Jazz Combo during a buffet dinner provided by Zingerman's Roadhouse for those at the Gourmet Jazz Picnickers level and up.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"4000-914038@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/4000", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":null, "has_livestream":0, "cost":"General Admission: $45", "tags":["music"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)", "group_id":"1053", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":914038 } }
