The lecture deals with a largely forgotten translation of the Book of Psalms done anonymously at the exiled court of King James II in Saint-Germain-en-Laye in 1700, reporting an investigation (which turned out to be a genuine adventure) into the identity of the translator(s). The story behind the translation has been reconstructed on the basis of interdisciplinary evidence and will be unveiled to the audience, illustrated by pictures of manuscripts, rare books and their even rarer editions.
