Manuscript on paper of Henricus de Ratisbona, Vocabularius Dictus Lucianus
- Description
-
In Latin.
Script: copied by one scribe in small Gothica Cursiva Currens; the opening lines in low quality Northern Gothica Textualis Formata.
Stroking of majuscules, underlining and plain initials in red; this decoration stops after f. 34v (quire III), although space had been provided for the initials. Very large flourished initials or litterae duplices with elaborate penwork in red and green on multiple folios.
Binding: contemporary German binding: yellowish parchment over heavy wooden boards, sewn on four double cords. The upper of the two leather closing straps is preserved, attached to the rear board and closing over a pin in the front board; the lower one is replaced with a “wrap-around” leather strap. On each cover 5 brass bosses. The paper pastedowns are blank leaves with ink frame-ruling for two columns. Numerous white leather tabs. In the upper compartment of the spine a brownish parchment label with the handwritten inscription s. XIX (?) “Vocabularius / MS 1415”; it replaces a similar but earlier label with the same inscription, in the second compartment. - Provenance
- On the front pastedown the s. XV title “Vocabularius”, the number “19” (s. XIX) and the s. XVIII/XIX inscription “MS. 64”. On the basis of the remnants of three labels on the front pastedown and a pressmark label at the bottom of the spine the manuscript is believed to have belonged to a convent in Bressanone (Brixen) - either the Poor Clares or (more probably, given the contents) the Franciscans. The manuscripts of both convents were in the early twentieth century brought together in Solbad Hall (Tyrol), and hence dispersed. MS 91 in the collection of Bernard M. Rosenthal. Purchased from him on the Edwin J. Beinecke Fund.
