Manuscript on parchment (trimmed) of a fragment of De Arithmetica by Boethius
- Description
-
In Latin.
Script: copied by one hand in Carolina. The glosses in a different, small handwriting. Headings in Capitalis. The words following an initial in a mixture of Capitalis and Uncialis. Headings and plain initials (in Capitalis) in red. The table on f. 2v is traced in double red ink lines, the space between the double lines coloured yellow.
Boethius, De arithmetica, 1.10.87-1.11.52, with interlinear glosses. One bifolio, the two leaves not in succession. Loss of text caused by holes and the rubbing on ff. 1r and 2v.
Binding: the bifolium was used for the binding of a book, ff. 1r and 2v being the outer side of the covers; because of the wide inner margins, relatively little text was lost in the process. - Provenance
- Purchased from the collection of Bernard M. Rosenthal.
