DESCRIPTION:
This - Desciphering Secrets: The Illuminated Manuscripts of Medieval Europe - is my (a student) reason for taking this course. The course is available through coursera.org (as a massive open online course = MOOC), and can be taken either "free" or for a small fee (your choice).
In my estimation the course is primarily for those who love medieval manuscripts.
The course is short - 7 weeks - and has a LOT of information (except maybe for those who are already professionals in the field).
I will be taking the course again (probably several times) because it offers me so much information.
I will post other videos about the "hands-on project" part of the course.
