Description
  • This manuscript is entirely dedicated to the Commentary on Daniel by St Jerome (b. c. 347, d. 420). An inscription added at the Benedictine abbey of St Maximin in Trier shows that it was in that monastery shortly after its production. Added corrections, punctuation, marginal notation, practice alphabets, and marginal outline drawings (such as the lion in the bottom margin on f. 109r) suggest that it was well used by both novices and more fully educated monks. It was apparently still considered an important text by the 14th century, when five folios were added to supplement the lost ending of the text. The text has been printed in Patrologia Latina 25, ed. Jacques-Paul Migne, pp. 491-583. Contents:ff.1v-117r: St Jerome, Commentary on Daniel, beginning: ‘Contra profetam Danielem’. [f. 1r is blank.]Decoration:5 medium penwork initials with simple interlace decoration, some also with zoomorphic decoration, marking the start of divisions of the text (f. 4r, f. 59v, f. 79r, f. 109v). Small penwork outline initials at the start of other divisions of text (for example f. 15v). 1 simple initial in red (f. 115r). Small initials and capital letters marked in red throughout ff. 113r-117v. Explicit and ownership inscription in red on f. 117v. Greek words and quotations are marked by a line above the word or phrase.
