Books in Medieval Times

Pupils of grade 5a in Szkoła Podstawowa nr 11 in Przemyśl and their Polish teacher Ms Katarzyna Skotnicka studied about the history of books in Medieval Times and made a film about it. Before the invention of printing machines books were handmade and treasured as works of art and  symbols of knowledge. They were written by monks and the monasteries had the first libraries. The handwriting was very neat and painstaking so the book creation required hard work and patience.
