‎The essays collected in this volume focus on a prominent aspect of Anglo-Saxon culture: educational texts and the Insular manuscripts which have preserved them. The English imported manuscripts and texts from the Continent, whilst a series of foreign masters, from Theodore of Tarsus to Abbo of Fleury, brought with them knowledge of works which were being studied in Continental schools. Although monastic education played a leading role for the entire Anglo-Saxon period, it was in the second half of the tenth and early eleventh centuries that it reached its zenith, with its renewed importance and the presence of energetic masters such as AEthelwold and AElfric. The indebtedness to Continental programs of study is evident at each step, beginning with the Disticha Catonis. Nevertheless, a number of texts initially designed for a Latin-speaking milieu appear to have been abandoned (for instance in the field of grammar) in favour of new teaching tools. Besides texts which were part of the standard curriculum, Anglo-Saxon manuscripts provide abundant evidence of other learning and teaching instruments, in particular those for a specialized class of laymen, the Old English laece, the healer or physician. Medicine occupies a relevant place in the book production of late Anglo-Saxon England and, in this field too, knowledge from very far afield was preserved and reshaped. All these essays, many by leading scholars in the various fields, explore these issues by analysing the actual manuscripts, their layout and contents. They show how miscellaneous collections of treatises in medieval codices had an internal logic, and highlight how crucial manuscripts are to the study of medieval culture.‎

‎Il presente studio si colloca all?interno di un complesso di ricerche che negli ultimi quaranta anni hanno affrontato la cultura grafica e la complessiva eredita culturale diumanisti della cerchia laurenziana, quali Angelo Poliziano, Marsilio Ficino, Bartolomeo Fonzio (libri appartenenti alla loro biblioteca, talora autografi oppure realizzati da copisti di fiducia, ma anche materiali di lavoro della piu varia natura, quali appunti, schedature, commenti inediti, traditi da fascicoli autografi, talora oggetto di plurime, successive sistemazioni in forma di volume). Il lavoro ha per oggetto la ricostruzione della biblioteca di Pietro Crinito (1474-1507), lo studio della sua cultura grafica e un catalogo dettagliato di tutti i libri che gli appartennero. In assenza di inventari e disposizioni testamentarie, la raccolta libraria del Crinito e stata ricostruita attraverso un sistematico spoglio della bibliografia di riferimento, ma anche attraverso controlli diretti dei singoli fondi delle principali biblioteche in cui sono giunti materiali dell?umanista fiorentino. La ricerca ha portato al reperimento di 34 volumi di proprieta del Crinito per un totale di 64 unita codicologiche. Particolare attenzione e stata dedicata ai manoscritti autografi del Crinito che, pur distribuiti in un arco di anni ridotto dal 1486 al 1500, permettono di delineare un quadro dell?evoluzione delle sue abitudini grafiche dagli anni della formazione scolastica all?eta matura. La ricerca individua l?evoluzione della scrittura e riconosce, a partire dal 1495, una svolta nelle scelte grafiche del Crinito che solo da questo momento, solo dopo lo studio degli autografi di Poliziano, adotta un modello di corsiva all?antica decisamente caratterizzato da forme di lettera e di legature di tradizione antiquaria.‎

‎L?originalite du nouveau repertoire d?incipit de manuscrits medievaux latins reside dans le caractere inedit de la majorite de la documentation rassemblee. Repondant a un souhait exprime depuis longtemps par plusieurs chercheurs, nous avons essaye d?enregistrer des informations figurant dans des fichiers peu ou pas accessibles a la majorite des medievistes. Constitues au fil du temps par des erudits ou par des equipes de chercheurs, ce materiel est susceptible de rendre d?enormes services a tous ceux qui souhaitent retrouver les manuscrits ayant conserve une oeuvre donnee ou bien encore identifier l?auteur d?un ouvrage considere jusqu?a present comme anonyme. Pour le moyen age, l?incipit d?un manuscrit ou d?une oeuvre, c?est-a-dire les premiers mots d?un texte, est le seul moyen tout a fait sur d?identification. Beaucoup de textes medievaux sont anonymes ou faussement attribues. Seul l?incipit peut alors servir a reperer les differents manuscrits qui conservent encore actuellement une oeuvre donnee. Des recherches peuvent etre faites sur differentes zones afin d?obtenir l?ensemble de la documentation concernant un incipit. L?ensemble du materiel sera publie en quatre volumes. Le dernier comprendra des index d?auteurs, de bibliotheques et de titres pour faciliter la consultation des donnees. Nous esperons donc que ce nouveau repertoire accessible dans les cabinets de manuscrits constituera une aide precieuse lors des recherches menees sur un manuscrit.‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2015 Hardcover with dusjacket, 296 p., 382 colour ill., 230 x 330 mm, 2015 Languages: English. ISBN 9781909400375.‎

‎This volume contains an impressive range of texts, from Horace (Cat. 17) and Ovid (Cat. 61) to the earliest known copy of the Collectio Lanfranci (Cat. 5) and Gerard of Cremona?s translations of Rasis? works (Cat. 93). The bulk, however, consists of Bibles of two kinds: imposing glossed books, produced in great numbers in the twelfth-century, and their thirteenth-century successors, the compact pandects. Both categories include some of the most richly illuminated French manuscripts of the period. Among the former are two deluxe sets made for Thomas Becket, the first completed while he was in exile in Pontigny and Sens from 1164 until 1170 (Cat. 27-31), the second edited after his martyrdom by his secretary Herbert of Bosham (Cat. 32-34). The majority of the thirteenth-century Bibles are so-called ?Paris? or ?pocket? Bibles produced from the 1220s onwards, mostly in Paris, and containing the biblical books in a standard order. They are illuminated in a variety of figure and ornamental styles, some comparable to the Bibles moralisees of c.1220-1240 (e.g. Cat. 72), others bearing no resemblance to them (e.g. Cat. 73). There are also notable exceptions of complete Bibles made not in Paris, but in North-Eastern France or Champagne (e.g. Cat. 70), and displaying iconography, figure styles and order of books different from those found in their better-known Parisian contemporaries. We hope that the inclusion of numerous images in full colour representing Bibles illuminated in all of these different styles will inspire and support further research, especially on the ornamental initials which deserve more attention. While this volume contains outstanding examples of illumination, notably the work of the itinerant Simon Master (Cat. 46), it also includes books that are modest in artistic terms, but valuable in other ways. Among them is a glossed Ezekiel which boasts one of the finest Romanesque bindings to survive in Cambridge collections, made almost certainly in Paris c.1160-1170 (Cat. 41). Other aesthetically unassuming volumes form important groups of material, for instance, the books assembled by Master Robert Amiclas during his forty years in France and given or sold by him to the Cistercian Abbey of Buildwas in Shropshire (Cat. 20-26, 37).‎

‎KORTE INHOUD De handschriften uit de voormalige Ter Duinenabdij Beschrijving Via mgr. Boussen kwam een hele partij manuscripten en gedrukte boeken van het fonds van de Duinenabdij in de Seminariebibliotheek terecht. De catalogus van de Codices Dunenses, door Antonius Sanderus in 1638 opgemaakt, getuigt van de glorievolle tijd (13de-14de eeuw), toen Ter Duinen een centrum van studie was en sommige van zijn doctores Parisienses aan de Sorbonne afstond. Getuigen ook van de bloei van het scriptorium Dunense. De Codices Dunenses zijn slechts voor een vijfde deel in het Seminarie terechtgekomen. De Stadsbibliotheek van Brugge bezit er een goede 300 van, het Seminarie 82. Treffend is vooral het feit dat de ge llustreerde codices bijna zonder uitzondering tot het fonds De Roover van het Seminarie behoren. Tot de Bibliotheca Dunensis behoorden sedert de unie met de Abdij Ter Doest (1627) ook de codices van deze abdij. Van de 171 manuscripten van Ter Doest zijn er 21 in de bibliotheek van het Seminarie bewaard. Ook een aantal andere handschriften van andere vroegere abdijen behoort tot deze collectie.‎

‎Spectacle for a Spanish Princess. The Festive Entry of Joanna of Castile into Brussels (1496)‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 440 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:240 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503594439.‎

‎Summary On the evening of 9 December 1496, Princess Joanna, Infanta of Castile, reaches the outskirts of Brussels where a procession of secular and ecclesiastical dignitaries welcomes her. After having been married to Philip the Fair in Lier, Joanna travelled to Brussels by herself. Equipped with torches and processional crosses, the citizens accompany her all the way to the heart of the city, the large market square with its magnificent town hall. The Berlin manuscript 78 D5 is the first illustrated report of an entry concentrating on one single lady. The manuscript is a treasure to all those interested in urban culture of the Early Modern period. The author of the festival booklet compares the well-lit city with the splendours of Troy and Carthage. Twenty-eight stage sets, or Tableaux Vivants, and an elaborate procession mirror the costly intellectual program presented to the sixteen-year-old princess. The carefully planned theatrical productions underscore themes of marriage, female virtues and the politics of war and peace. The program includes entertainments, soundscapes, and pyrotechnic amusements. The Latin texts are made available in English translation. The entire manuscript, with its sixty-three folios, is reproduced in colour. Eleven leading scholars present their new findings on this spectacular entry from an interdisciplinary approach.

‎Summary By comparison with Latin Europe, Anglo-Saxon civilization is notable for the amount of literature preserved in contemporary manuscripts in the vernacular language, formerly called ?Anglo-Saxon' but now more usually called ?Old English'. This literature includes some remarkable poetry, which is the subject of the present collection of essays. Some of the earliest poems may well have been written at a time when northern England held the intellectual leadership of Europe. The approach is holistic, investigating important issues in the manuscripts that affect the integrity of the texts to be studied or the way they relate to each other, examining metrical issues that affect the way the poems are appreciated for their compositional skill, studying particular textual problems that require elucidation or even emendation to make the meaning clear, and finally offering readings of particular poems focussing on themes that are central to Old English poetry. A postscript examines Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky, which is presented as a ?Stanza of Anglo-Saxon Poetry'. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Section A: Manuscripts Foreword 1.

‎Summary For inquisitive Christian minds in the Middle Ages, there were many reasons to learn Hebrew. The rediscovery of classical sources and Aristotelian philosophy and the engagement with Graeco-Arabic sciences that marked the renaissance of the twelfth century also brought about an acute awareness of the need for a philological understanding of the Hebrew language. In England in particular, various factors combined to encourage and facilitate the study of Hebrew texts, not only among well-known writers but also among English scholars whose names have not been preserved. They nevertheless produced bilingual Hebrew-Latin manuscripts in collaboration with Jewish scribes, along with manuals, textbooks, and reference aids to facilitate access to the sources. This volume presents an edition and analysis of one such learning tool: a thirteenth-century grammar written in Hebrew, Latin, and Anglo-Norman French (the vernacular language of the Jews of England) in a complex combination of Hebrew and Latin alphabets.

‎Summary Medieval astronomers used tables to solve most of the problems they faced. These tables were generally assembled in sets, which constituted genuine tool-boxes aimed at facilitating the task of practitioners of astronomy. In the early fourteenth century, the set of tables compiled by the astronomers at the service of King Alfonso X of Castile and Le n (d. 1284), reached Paris, where several scholars linked to the university recast them and generated new tables. John of Lign res, one of the earliest Alfonsine astronomers, assembled his own set of astronomical tables, mainly building on the work of previous Muslim and Jewish astronomers in the Iberian Peninsula, especially in Toledo. Two major sets had been compiled in this town: one in Arabic, the Toledan Tables, during the second half of the eleventh century, and the Castilian Alfonsine Tables, under the patronage of King Alfonso. This monograph provides for the first time an edition of the Tables of 1322 by John of Lign res. It is the earliest major set of astronomical tables to be compiled in Latin astronomy. It was widely distributed and is found in about fifty manuscripts. A great number of the tables were borrowed directly from the work of the Toledan astronomers, while others were adapted to the meridian of Paris, and many were later transferred to the standard version of the Parisian Alfonsine Tables. Therefore, John of Lign res' set can be considered as an intermediary work between the Toledan Tables and the Parisian Alfonsine Tables.

The first section begins with two witnesses to Lesley's excellence as teacher and culminates with an appreciation of her as a scholar. The second section explores the scholarly terrain in which Lesley has made her most signal contributions: the material and cultural sites and artefacts within and by which the Christian Scriptures emerged as a field of theoretical inquiry in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The third and final section explores Latin Christian use of scriptural inquiry and understanding so as to engage scholarly and religious traditions outside those of the Latin Church.

‎Summary The present book is a result of the Turfan studies carried out at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities since more than 100 years. The edition of Old Uyghur fragments that could be assigned to various texts about the Bodhisattva Avalokite?vara provides an insight into the history of Central Asian Buddhism. The monograph is accompanied by commentaries to a large number of subjects related to Tantric Buddhism of the Middle Ages. Some of the manuscripts have illustrations of the 40 objects held in the hands of the Bodhisattva Avalokite?vara of thousand arms and eyes well-known from statues and temple banners from Turfan, Dunhuang as well as China, Korea, and Japan. The Old Uyghur manuscripts are mainly based on Chinese originals of the Mijiao section (T. 1057, T. 1060, T. 1064 and T. 1982). One booklet was translated from a Tibetan original. The book concludes with a word index as a complement for the study of the Old Uyghur lexicon.

‎Summary Publication of 27 original documents, which are the oldest testimonies of the diplomatic practice of medieval Russian cities and principalities and which all come from the collection of the Riga City Council, historically preserved since the 13th century. This volume publishes the 27 oldest charters preserved in the Riga City Council's collections on the relations of the Hanseatic city with the Russian world, the principalities of Smolensk and Polotsk, the cities of Novgorod and Pskov. These charters are the oldest original documents and contemporary copies testifying about Russian diplomatic practice between 1191/1192 and 1338-1341. All documents are transcribed (palaeographic and diplomatic transcription) and translated into French. The publication also focuses on the external characteristics, and thus on the palaeographic, sigillographic and other peculiarities of medieval Russian charters. The introductory studies are published in French, and all palaeographic descriptions as well as historical and diplomatic comments are bilingual, in French and Russian. High-quality digital facsimilesof each document are published for the first time. The publication will considerably facilitate comparative studies in paleography, diplomatics, and especially on the history of the Baltic region.

‎Summary Baroness Angela Burdett-Coutts (1814-1906), descendant of a wealthy and well-known family of bankers, inherited quite young, through a series of unpredictable circumstances, the enormous fortune of Thomas Coutts, her maternal grand-father. She spent most of her long life in London, where she occupied a prominent position in society, becoming well-known not only for her splendid life-style and her important literary and political acquaintances, as, for instance, Charles Dickens and Admiral Nelson, but also for her active role as a philanthropist. This book explores a little-known side of her life; although she did not know Greek, she became the owner of ca. 100 Greek manuscripts, mostly theological, datable between the tenth and the sixteenth century, a part of which she donated to Highgate School. The manuscripts, with all the Baroness's possessions, were dispersed at auction in 1921 and in 1987 and are now mainly divided between American and European University Libraries. This book has identified for the first time the Baroness's Greek manuscripts, located and described them in detail, with special attention to their script style and their origin, adding to their description one or two plates of each codex.

‎Summary Di Tommaso d'Aquino, il pi noto e studiato teologo medievale, ci sono giunti cinque testi autografi, che vengono presentati qui per la prima volta all'interno di uno studio complessivo. La scrittura che li caratterizza talmente ostica da essersi guadagnata, gi nel Medioevo, l'appellativo di littera inintelligibilis, e spesso viene considerata una scrittura assolutamente personale. Quando si studiano le opere di un uomo considerato eccezionale, in effetti, facile incorrere nell'errore di giudicare anomalo, o straordinario, tutto ci che egli produsse, anche sul piano materiale. Obiettivo principale di questo lavoro quello di descrivere la scrittura di Tommaso e di inserirla nel suo contesto, esaminandola come un'espressione della scrittura dei dotti del tempo. Il volume suddiviso in tre parti. Dopo una descrizione codicologica dei manoscritti conservati, ci si concentra sulla scrittura attraverso una minuziosa descrizione dei fatti grafici. Infine, a partire dagli elementi materiali ricavati dall'esame degli autografi, viene esaminato il metodo di lavoro seguito da Tommaso e dai suoi collaboratori. Il punto di vista privilegiato quello della storia della cultura scritta: gli autografi di Tommaso sono analizzati nella loro materialit come testimonianze importanti che aprono spiragli di conoscenza sul lavoro intellettuale nel medioevo.‎

‎Illuminated Manuscript Production in Medieval Iceland. Literary and Artistic Activities of the Monastery at Helgafell in the Fourteenth Century‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 275 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:192 b/w, 22 col., 47 tables b/w., 2 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503589022.‎

‎Summary This book examines a cultural revolution that took place in the Scandinavian artistic landscape during the medieval period. Within just one generation (c. 1340-1400), the Augustinian monastery of Helgafell became the most important centre of illuminated manuscript production in western Iceland. By conducting interdisciplinary research that combines methodologies and sources from the fields of Art History, Old Norse-Icelandic manuscript studies, codicology, and Scandinavian history, this book explores both the illuminated manuscripts produced at Helgafell and the cultural and historical setting of the manuscript production. Equally, the book explores the broader European contexts of manuscript production at Helgafell, comparing the similar domestic artistic monuments and relevant historical evidence of Norwich and surrounding East Anglia in England, northern France, and the region between Bergen and Trondheim in western Norway. The book proposes that most of these workshops are related to ecclesiastical networks, as well as secular trade in the North Sea, which became an important economic factor to western Icelandic society in the fourteenth century. The book thereby contributes to a new and multidisciplinary area of research that studies not only one but several European cultures in relation to similar domestic artistic monuments and relevant historical evidence. It offers a detailed account of this cultural site in relation to its scribal and artistic connections with other ecclesiastical and secular scriptoria in the broader North Atlantic region.

‎Beyond Words. New Research on Manuscripts in Boston Collections‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, xxxii + 361 pages, Size:228 x 304 mm, Illustrations:91 b/w, 200 col., Language: English. ISBN 9780888442215.‎

‎Summary In the fall of 2016 an international scholarly conference accompanied the exhibition Beyond Words: Illuminated Manuscripts in Boston Collections. The speakers were chosen because of their expertise and because they were known to have research underway pertaining to important manuscripts in the exhibition. The aim of both exhibition and conference was to provide a broad overview of the history of patronage and book production over the course of the High and late Middle Ages, to the extent that the eclectic holdings of Boston-area institutions permitted. Most of the papers delivered at the conference have been collected as essays in this abundantly illustrated volume which, while still linked to the exhibition, now has an independent purpose. Just as the essays cover a wide range of topics, all relating to the history of the book, but also, inter alia, to the history of law, liturgy, literature, and libraries as well as to devotion, theology, and art, so too the approaches adopted by the contributors are as varied as the materials they study, ranging from paleography, codicology, and provenance research to painstaking reconstructions of historical patterns of patronage and the interpretative strategies of authors and artists. What results is not simply a wealth of fascinating insights into individual illuminated books, their makers, and their readers, but also an indication of how much remains to be learned about the materials to which the exhibition served as no more than an introduction.

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, xix + 463 pages, Size:155 x 245 mm, Language(s):English, Armenian. ISBN 9782503590349.‎

‎Summary Hellenists know the services rendered by the R pertoire des catalogues de manuscrits grecs of Marcel Richard and Jean-Marie Olivier. It is an indispensable heuristic tool, but also a witness to the development of codicology and cultural history. Such a tool was lacking for specialists of Armenian manuscripts, philologists, linguists, and art historians. Armenian Manuscripts. Catalogues, Collections, Libraries (in English) is the second edition, revised and updated, of the R pertoire des biblioth ques et des catalogues de manuscrits arm niens first published in 1992. It includes the four supplements published in the journal Le Mus on in 1995, 2000, 2004, and 2019, as well as new sections devoted e.g. to the main copy centers of Armenian manuscripts. The book provides a full bibliography on all repositories of Armenian manuscripts in the world, public and private, large and small. It also gives many insights about the fate of Armenian manuscripts in the course of history: where and when they have been produced, mostly in medieval monastic centers, how they escaped invasions, fires, thefts and even destructions linked to the genocide of the Armenians, and finally how they ended up in private or public collections where they can be studied and admired today. Tables of concordance between current and old references enable one to locate manuscripts that are thought to have disappeared or to find more complete descriptions in an old catalogue than are given in recent lists. The volume also includes an impressive index of manuscripts.

‎Summary This volume pays homage to manuscripts and early printed books as material witnesses in the Middle Ages. The essays discuss broad questions relating to the partisan interpretation of texts, but they also illustrate how small details of format, script, and decoration uncover the text, its context, and its reception. Some articles explore scientific methods, examining whether social network analysis can offer an advance over traditional methods of establishing textual connections and using statistics to understand the transmission of ancillary materials. Others present critical editions and contextualize lost genres, providing a first edition of an unedited summary of Ovid's Metamorphoses steeped in the Boccaccian genealogical tradition, exploring mock funeral eulogies for animals, and discussing the variety of texts that pay witness to Ovid's penetration into vernacular literature. A closing brace of essays catalogue collections and reflect on changing trends in the study of manuscripts.

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 327 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Illustrations:1 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503573397.‎

‎Summary This is the third and final volume describing manuscripts and fragments in British libraries containing commentaries and glosses on the Latin Aristotle. It covers institutional libraries from Aberdeen to York, including cathedral libraries, and lists 193 main items (including fragments dismembered from several books), dating from the twelfth century until c.1500. While many of these manuscripts have come to Britain from elsewhere in Europe and were only acquired post-1500, they represent teaching and learning not only in the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge but also in continental universities. A majority of them are now held in the British Library, London, and many have not been fully described before. The volume also includes addenda from Oxford and Cambridge, and four indexes are provided to facilitate searching the main text.‎
