Description
  • Selection of works by Lawrence of Durham (approximately 1114-1154), monk and prior of Durham Priory, probably compiled shortly after his death at Durham Priory as a memorial. It includes a full page portrait of a scribe at work, assumed to represent Lawrence. This manuscript contains all the works of Lawrence, apart from his early life of St Brigit and some minor works ascribed to him or referred to by other writers of which no copies are extant. On the life and works of Lawrence, see Sharpe (1997), 359-361, Rigg (1992), 54-61, Durham monks, 142-143 and ODNB.
