A study group of leaves and fragments, in Latin, manuscripts on vellum [12th to 15th centuries]
A selection of manuscripts from Western Europe, including an Italian 14th-century privilege, part of an early French chronicle, liturgical texts, and a charming 15th-century illuminated Calendar featuring early English saints.
Comprising:
(i) A fragmentary strip from a Chronicle [France, c.1200].
c.270 × 70mm. Remains of 25/26 lines, ruled in red and brown ink, written in a fine early gothic display script from a large format manuscript, 2-line initial 'S' (clean tear but aside from the trimming in good condition). One side of the fragment is devoted to chronological calculations from Adam, from the beginning of the World to the Flood, from the Flood to King David, from King David to the Ascension of Jesus. There are repeated references to Adam and the beginning of the World. Saint Jerome is cited (probably a reference to his own revision of the Chronicle of Eusebius). On the other side of the fragment are dates generally without events filled in; but in the few instances where events do accompany their dates, there is mention of the (Germanic) Alamanni, Saxony, and the devastation of eastern [...] (text cut away)].
Provenance: Colker MS 495; acquired in 2002 from Quaritch.
(ii) A fragment from a noted Breviary [Germany, 12th century].
c.150 × 115mm. The upper corner of a leaf, preserving part of 15 lines, blind-ruled, written in a protogothic bookhand, with neums (stained and creased from use in a binding).
