Manuscripts

MANUSCRIPTS

The Manuscripts section is currently being moved. Until now manuscripts have been filed by country, town and library, but in future they will be incorporated into the rest of the collection.

For now, there is a temporary iconographic section consisting of cycles which are too bulky and of too frequent occurrence to fit into the rest of the Collection without causing overcrowding. This section is arranged as follows:

GODS & MYTHS

Historia Troiana
Aeneid
Argonauts

LITERATURE

Roman de la Rose

MAGIC & SCIENCE

Astrological manuscripts
  Aratea
  Non-Aratea
Encyclopaedic manuscripts
Writing systems
Types of people
Bestiaries

RELIGIOUS ICONOGRAPHY

Liturgical manuscripts
  Antiphonaries
  Books of Hours
  Breviaries
  Epistolaries
  Lectionaries
  Pontificals
  Psalters
  Sacramentaries
  Miscellaneous
