Description
  • Summary:
    In manuscript 534 seven works are brought together. The codex consists of two units, each with their own subject and origin. The first unit contains five texts, all on the subject of grammar. It begins (ff. 1r-77r) with the Institutiones Grammaticae, an exposition on Latin grammar by the early sixth-century author Priscian; followed by (ff. 77v-83v) a part of the Ars grammatica by the fourth-century grammatian Aelius Donatus; (ff. 83v-92v) the De accentibus liber, a work on syllables and their accents, often ascribed to Priscian; (ff. 97r-109r) De disciplina scolarium, ascribed to Boethius (d. 524); and (ff. 111r-130v) an unfinished copy of the Absoluta by Petrus Hispanus (mid twelfth-century), a summa on the Institutiones of Priscian. The second unit contains two glossed books of the Bible: the (ff. 131r-189v) Actus apostolorum glosati; and the (ff. 190r-197v) Apocalypsis glosata. Author of the glosses on Revelations is Gilbert de la Porrée, a French theologian and bishop of Poitiers (d. 1154). The first unit dates from the third quarter of the thirteenth century and was possibly written in England, in or near Oxford. The second unit is somewhat older, dating from the second decade of the century. The layout of the texts is not uniform. The first four texts are all written in a single column, with wide margins for notes. The Absoluta has been written in two columns per page, while the two Bible books contain a single column for the original text, surrounded by one or two columns of glosses. Initials have been added in red and blue ink; in the Absoluta only in blue ink. The first initial of the Absoluta has been executed as a gilded historiated initial. [Summary by Dr. Mark Vermeer]
