10742 Planting Letters and Weaving Lines: Calligraphy and The Saint John's Bible   

The Saint John’s Bible is a feast for the eyes unlike anything created for centuries. Join author Jonathan Homrighausen for a discussion of his book, Planting Letters and Weaving Lines. This book uses the poetic images of the biblical Song of Songs and the letters of this unique Bible to show how to look at letters as art. We will explore how writing is like weaving, how a page is a garden, and how even the form of this Bible brings life out of death.

Recommened: Jonathan Homrighausen, Planting Letters and Weaving Lines: Calligraphy, The Song of Songs, and The Saint John’s Bible (Collegeville, MN: Liturgical Press, 2022).
