Summary:
Manuscript 224 is the second volume in a two-volume set containing
De sacramentis christianae fidei, with Ms. 223 being the first
volume. The De sacramentis is the most important work of Hugh of
Saint-Victor (d. 1141), an important pre-Thomist scholastic
theologian and a prolific writer. It is an epitome of Hugh's
thoughts, dealing with a variety of theological subjects. The
manuscript dates from the early thirteenth century, and might have
been copied in the scriptorium of Saint Donatian in Bruges. The
text is presented in two columns per page and lacks decoration.
Rubrication is present and initials are added in red or green. The
larger initials at the beginning of the preface and the first
chapter have been executed more elaborately in blue and red ink.
The manuscript contains an ownership inscription of Ter Doest that
has been extended to include a book curse. When this abbey was
fused with Ten Duinen, the books were absorbed into the latter's
library. The first and last leaves carry the cross-shaped stamp of
Ten Duinen. The manuscript is bound in an early Cistercian binding
from the thirteenth century: blindstamped calf over wooden boards,
with traces of five metal mounts and two clasps. [Summary by Dr.
