Professor McLeod will give the fifth annual lecture in history of the book. His talk will be about the work of Venetian Aldo Manuzio (1449-1515), a printer of many first Greek editions and the first to print in italics. He will also give a graduate workshop.

His visit is co-sponsored by LiteracyStudies@OSU, the Department of History, the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, and University Libraries.
