looking for transcrip/ audio file of particular BBC radio show
I know this is a long shot -- but
On Thursday April 26 I was listening to the BBC World News and heard a very interesting story. Unfortunately I didn't hear the begining of the story.
It was about a museum / building? that was doing a show with many different medieval / very old manuscrips of different Holy books side by side. Showing the smiliarities instead of the differences.
I remember one bit where they were describing 2 manuscrips one Muslim and one Christian done by 'probably the same school' because they were both illuminated & caligraphied the same. Both in (arabic??/ IIRC) scrip and both looked the same, only the content of the words were different.
I have scoured the BBC.co.uk site and can't seem to find any links to yesterday's broadcast.
Can anyone help?
Oh! DUH! I was listening to it from 8:30 -9am on WNYC (NY, NY radio station) - if this helps.
