Cujas: Virtual Exhibition

Over 28-29 April, the Collège de France hosted a colloquium devoted to Jacques Cujas, the noted humanist jurist, the 500th  anniversary of whose death falls this year. This was held under the auspices of the chair of Dario Mantovani. For details of the colloquium, along with recordings of the presentations made, see https://www.college-de-france.fr/site/dario-mantovani/symposium-2021-2022.htm The colloquium was also organised by Xavier Prevost of the university of Bordeaux and Alexandra Gottely of the Bibliothèque interuniversitaire Cujas.

Linked with the Colloquium is an exhibition organised at the Bibliothèque Cujas, the Law Library of the universities of Paris. This exhibition is accessible online, with various texts relating to the colloquium. It is well worth a look, and full of fascinating stuff http://expo-jacques-cujas-1522-2022-biu-cujas.univ-paris1.fr
