In celebration of Notre-Dame de Paris’s grand reopening after the devastating 2019 fire, Johns Hopkins alumna Kathy Borrus, A&S '98, will share insights from her book, Notre Dame de Paris: A Celebration of the Cathedral. Kathy will lead us through the cathedral’s rich history—from the laying of its first cornerstone in 1163 to its many transformations over the centuries. Discover the events, people, and fascinating details that have shaped this iconic structure, all illustrated with beautiful historical images from her book.
This Alumni Author Talk will be moderated by Anne E. Lester, the John W. Baldwin and Jenny Jochens Associate Professor of Medieval History at Johns Hopkins University. Professor Lester recently published an article with Perspectives on History on the cathedral’s restoration and reopening. #AHAPerspectives
