Visiting the Wren Library of Trinity College, Cambridge today, taking in (you guessed it) yet more Statuta Angliæ #manuscripts — including one which features this rather unhappy little fellow. 😕 #MedievalManuscripts#LegalHistory#HistLaw#Law @bookhistodons@medievodons
Includes a 15th C Petrarch, Dati's La Sfera (with the Tower), a 16th C Arabic Diatessaron, many song books from Chigi, a 16th C Ge'ez Gospel, some early Greek, a Maronite Office... and more! @medievodons@bookhistodons#Medieval#Medievodons
Because I fixed a bug in the code, 115 #Manuscripts were tracked as new from the #Vatican this week https://www.wiglaf.org/vatican/2024/week18.html
The load time for the Vat.lat page had exceeded my timeout for the last 7 weeks, this has been fixed! There's a lot of papal history, including several Scrutini, sermons, commentary, satirical poems, Thomas Aquinas in Terza Rima, Beneventan music, coins and more! #Medieval#Medievodons@bookhistodons@medievodons
Please share the information about the below as widely as you can - this is a #palaeography course for the general public, which is super rare!
"Join Dr Manuel Muñoz in a one-day overview of Iberian late-medieval books at the London International Palaeography School. We will explore the evolution of book scripts between the 13th and the 15th centuries, and we will discover what makes late-medieval Iberian #manuscripts unique."
