Description
I graduated in Art History, Hebrew Studies and Medieval Studies, and obtained my PhD in 2012 at the Central European University, Budapest. I created the catalogue descriptions of the Hebrew material for the Online Catalogue of Illuminated Manuscripts at the British Library. I also worked as manuscript cataloguer in the Polonsky Foundation Digitization Project at the Bodleian Library, and in the Hebrew Manuscripts Digitisation Project at the British Library. I was co-curator of the exhibition “Hebrew Manuscripts: Journeys of the Written Word” at the British Library (2020-2021). Currently, I am a research associate at the John Rylands Research Institute and Library, at the University of Manchester.
