A palimpsest (/ˈpælɪmpsɛst/) is a manuscript page, either from a scroll or a book, from which the text has been either scraped or washed off so that the page can be reused, for another document. Parchment and other materials for writing or engraving upon were expensive to produce, and in the interest of economy were re-used wherever possible. In colloquial usage, the term palimpsest is also used in architecture, archaeology, and geomorphology, to denote an object made or worked upon for one purpose and later reused for another, for example a monumental brass the reverse blank side of which has been re-engraved.
Etymology
The word "palimpsest" derives from the Latinpalimpsestus, from the Ancient Greekπαλίμψηστος (palímpsestos, "scratched again", "scraped again") originally compounded from ψάω (psao, "to scrape") and πάλιν (palin, "again"), thus meaning "scraped clean and used again". The Ancient Romans wrote (literally scratched on letters) on wax-coated tablets, which were easily re-smoothed and reused; Cicero's use of the term "palimpsest" confirms such a practice.
A palimpsest, in planetary astronomy, is an ancient crater on an icy moon of the outer Solar System whose relief has disappeared due to creep of the icy surface ("viscous relaxation") or subsequent cryovolcanic outpourings, leaving a circular albedo feature, perhaps with a "ghost" of a rim. Icy surfaces of natural satellites like Callisto and Ganymede preserve hints of their history in these rings. A typical example is Memphis Facula on Ganymede, a 340 km wide palimpsest.
I’ve been too afraid to revisit this melody because of the traumatic memories attached but I had a breakthrough last night and finished a song. Here is a snippet...I called it ‘Palimpsest’ because rather than discarding this old idea, I reworked it into something new and hopeful.
Your hurt might linger but it doesn’t get to define your present. Sometimes, closure doesn’t come in the form of forgetting or effacing your past pain, but rather giving that pain new context.
After all, you have survived. You’re here now, stronger than ever with more wisdom and a greater capacity to love, and that is so very beautiful. 🖤

What is a palimpsest, and why is it important? (Dr. Brubaker answers)
We announced in August that Dr. Asma Hilali will be coming on to interview. This video is a status update, and also sets the stage for the discussion with Dr. Hilali, which will occur at the end of this week, with the video going up early next.
The Sanaa Palimpsest will not form the sole basis of Dr. Hilali's discussion, but she is known for her book on that manuscript fragment, so we will touch on it when we speak.
In the current video, Dr. Brubaker first explains what a palimpsest is: A manuscript page, usually parchment, that has been written once, then washed off and recycled to produce a second page of writing. Palimpsests are not limited to Quran manuscripts; other pieces of writing exist on them too. Brubaker mentions one in the Cambridge University Library that contains quranic...

The Power of the Palimpsest | Stephen Bliss | TEDxBermuda
As Senior Artist with Rockstar Games from 2001 to 2016 Stephen Bliss helped establish the highly recognizable illustrative style that defined the look, feel and positioning of the gaming mega-franchise Grand Theft Auto. Today Stephen has shifted gears and armed with a camera and an eye for the undiscovered, he shows that art, even unintended, is all around us.

Palimpsests are not limited to Quran manuscripts; other pieces of writing exist on them too. Brubaker mentions one in the Cambridge University Library that contains quranic material that was erased and overwritten by biblical material.
The Sanaa Palimpsest is important because it has been dated early, (its 95% probability range partly overlaps the lifetime of Muhammad) and also because its lower text is variant in some interesting ways. First, it has a different sura (that is, chapter) order from the one used now. Second, it has textual variants from the standard rasm.
Again, we will discuss this palimpsest, and more, in upcoming videos. Also, if you have specific questions that you would like Dr. Brubaker or Dr. Hilali to address, please leave them in the comment section below. We will not be able to get to all of them, but will look at them when considering which way to take the conversation.

As Senior Artist with Rockstar Games from 2001 to 2016 Stephen Bliss helped establish the highly recognizable illustrative style that defined the look, feel and positioning of the gaming mega-franchise Grand Theft Auto. Today Stephen has shifted gears and armed with a camera and an eye for the undiscovered, he shows that art, even unintended, is all around us.
Pioneering British artist Stephen Bliss worked as Senior Artist for Rockstar Games from 2001 to 2016 where he helped establish the illustrative styles for the video game phenomenon Grand Theft Auto.
In a career that spans 3 decades, 2016 saw him return to his roots as a fine artist. His work has been exhibited in many international galleries, and his commissioned murals in the Wynwood district of Miami for Art Basel won him recent acclaim.
2017 will see him painting a large mural hanging directly over the Hudson River, working on a collection of artwork for a solo show in London, designs for his clothing label Bliss, a campaign for a new Coca Cola product, characters for VR and AR, and a poster for legendary band The Pixies.
