- Description
-
- This composite manuscript contains seven parts (ff. 1-4; ff. 5-60; ff. 61-90; ff. 91-111; f. 112; f. 113; ff. 114-122) that were most likely produced at different locations in England and in different periods of time. These parts were joined together in the library of Sir Robert Bruce Cotton (b. 1571, d. 1631). The manuscript contains theological, computistical, liturgical, biblical and historical texts. Among its contents is the Cosmographia (Cosmography), an 8th-century work that describes the cosmography of the heavens, the geography of the world, and the monstrous peoples and creatures that inhabit its different regions. The work is presented as a travelogue written down by its protagonist ‘Ister Aethicus’, a Scythian philosopher, that was then found and edited by the Church Father St Jerome (b. 347, d. 420). The manuscript also contains the Anglo-Norman Comput (Computus): the oldest extant scientific text in the vernacular, that was composed by Philippe de Thaon (fl. c. 1113–1150), the first Anglo-Norman poet, in 1113. Contents: ff. 1r-4v: St Augustine of Hippo (b. 354, d. 430), Bishop of Hippo, De Doctrina Christiana (On Christian Teaching), incomplete: ff. 1r-3v: Preface and Book 1, imperfect; ff. 4r-4v: Book 4, imperfect. ff. 5r-32r: Pseudo-Augustine of Hippo, Hypomnesticon contra Pelagianos et Celestianos (Hypomnesticon Against the Pelagians and Celestinans). ff. 32r-56r: Pseudo-Athanasius of Alexandria, De Processione Spiritus Sancti (On the Procession of the Holy Spirit), extracts. ff. 56v-57r, 58r-59r: Pope Paschal II, Epistolae (Letters). ff. 57r-58r: A record of the primacy of Canterbury, 1072. ff. 59r-59v: Acts of the Council of Rome, 1112. ff. 61r-90r: Aethicus Ister and Pseudo-Jerome (translator), Cosmographia , imperfect at the beginning and end: the text ends with Aethicus Ister’s alphabet. ff. 91r-91v: Computistical tables, the second one for the years 1133-1177. ff. 92r-97v: Calendar, adapted for the use of Canterbury. ff. 98r-108v: Computistical treatises. f. 109r: A genealogy of kings in Anglo-Norman, beginning ‘Hic est Istoria Francorum’. ff. 109v-111v: Computistical treatises, partly in verse. ff. 110r-111r: Philippe de Thaon, Comput (Anglo-Norman). ff. 112r-112v: The Book of Psalms, excerpt: psalms 6-7, imperfect at the end. ff. 114r-120v: The Book of Genesis, excerpt (Genesis 41.3-46.7). ff. 120v-122r: De Conceptione Beate Marie Virginis (On the Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary); the text is organized in nine liturgical lections that presumably were used for the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary. [ff. 60r, 60v, 90v, 113r [ruled], 113v, 122v are blank].
