Geniuses & Giants. Handwritten notes. Their's.
About manoscripta.com and our services
WHAT IS manoscripta.com ?
Would you like to share an afternoon in the company of some of the most intelligent and influential people to ever have walked on the surface of this planet?
- Whose ideas were both radically innovative and highly controversial?
- Many of whom - say Einstein, Newton, Dawrin, Kepler, Freud - have helped define our very understanding of the word "genius"?
- Whose work effected change in the world that can still be felt today?
You have come to the right place.
THAT is precisely what manoscripta.com is all about.
Accessing a vast and unique repository of handwritten documents, manoscripta.com offers a novel way to connect people like you and me with the great minds of the ages:
through their handwritten legacies.
"From Newton to Freud,
to Frank Lloyd Wright to Kepler and on to Napoleon..."
These handwritten papers come in a myriad of different formats.
Scientific papers submitted for review, maybe a visa application, a note scribbled in anger to a noisy neighbour, a letter to a relative or lover. Papers that time, happenstance (and some very informed and dedicated collectors) have combined to preserve, and that manoscripta.com can now organize into mesmerizing exhibits.
Each of these documents - perhaps because of the handwriting style, the choice of paper used, the ideas or events the note describes and the tone of the language used - will invariably reveal to us something about the writer. And when that writer is, say, Freud or Newton, well... that all becomes rather interesting. No...?
While reading and gazing at the ink on often time-yellowed pages, time flies and we may suddenly realize that we feel we have spent a few intimate and precious moments in close company with truly great talents and minds, meeting them as it were, in their world and in their time.
This feeling of proximity to genius can be a very rewarding and unique one, and it is one that manoscripta.com seeks to share with the world in a new, exciting and diligently well-organized format.
OUR SERVICES TO SELECT INSTITUTIONS
We have access to literally thousands of rare documents, that we may be able to put at the disposal of your institution, for example: to charm your visitors with a themed document exhibit that supports your institution's current mission and values.
We are a well-organized one-stop source that can offer the opportunity to arrange themed exhibitions of these documents.
From Einstein to Puccini, Kepler to Mahler, the scientists, composers, writers, artists, sportsmen, politicians and figures who have directly had a hand in shaping the world we live in and how we perceive it.
Letters and notes of all kinds - all handwritten by some of the most remarkable people through the ages - can help your institution charm visitors, gain traction, and attract media attention.
Do you have Italian opera in your concert hall program thïs autumn?
How about a small themed letter exhibit - say Verdi, Puccini and Mascagni - to completely charm your audience already in the foyer? A meeting of statesmen? How about letters from great kings and statesmen from bygone eras to provide inspiration and perspective?
Perhaps an exhibit of letters and notes for your science museum, from some of the greatest scientists that ever lived - say Newton, Einstein, Curie, Freud, and Mendeleev?
These are the types of experiences we can offer, bringing people in proximity to the great minds of the ages - and all within the bounds of a focused theme and setting that mirrors and enhances your organization's values and goals.
