| Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary This massive manuscript, dated 1435, contains a series of texts listed on the table of contents (pp. 1a-3a). Almost entirely copied by a single hand, the texts are arranged in two columns and introduced by rubrics and simple red initials, except for the first initial, which is larger and executed in blue (p. 5). In addition to the Liber collationum sanctorum patrum (pp. 5a-185b), the Vitae patrum (pp. 186a-225a), and the Verba seniorum (pp. 581a-695a), it contains devotional texts, such as the Thomas a Kempis’ De imitatione Christi (pp. 235b-279b) and the Liber de medela animae (pp. 364b-406b). The red leather binding dates from the fifteenth century. |
