'Liber sancte Marie de Thosan, ex dono Iohannis monachi nostri'. Dit is mogelijk Johannes de Vos.'Liber sancte Marie de Thosan, ex dono domini Gerardi de Or[s]camp. Anima eius requiescat in pace. Amen' - 13de eeuw
Summary:
Manuscript 76 is a composite manuscript consisting of two units:
(ff. 1r-201v) the fourteen Pauline epistle; and (f. 202r-237v) the
Book of Wisdom. Both texts are accompanied by the corresponding
Glossa ordinaria. The first seven leaves of the Pauline epistles
have been used for a variety of notes and Biblical passages. On
folio 3v the descend from Noah is depicted, accompanied by a
consanguinity table. Folio 7v contains a table of contents. In this
particular case, we can reconstruct the background of each of the
units and the moment of their combination into the current volume.
Each unit has an ownership inscription and a note on the manner of
acquisition. The first unit found its way into the Ter Doest
library as 'a gift of our monk John' (ex dono Iohannis monachi
nostri), who might be identified with Johannes de Vos (f. 201v).
The note in the second unit (f. 237r) describes how the text was
given to the abbey at the request of lord ('dominus') Gerardus de
Orscamp, 'whose soul may rest in peace'. Shortly after the latter
text was received by the monks, it was bound together with the
Pauline epistles in an early Cistercian binding from the twelfth or
thirteenth century. Each page has a single column with the text,
surrounded by marginal glosses on each side, and interlinear
glosses within the text. The Pauline epistles contain a few
prominent and well executed multicoloured initials, a.o. at the
beginning of the epistle to the Romans ([f. 8r]). The Book of
Wisdom is decorated in a more sober fashion, with alternating red
and blue initials. [Summary by Dr. Mark Vermeer] Title:
