Paperback, XIX+268 p., 210 x 270 mm. ISBN 9782503535647. Le present volume propose une description de 190 manuscrits notes conserves dans les bibliotheques publiques de la Region Champagne-Ardenne. Ils forment une collection disparate qui documente les chants et les poesies liturgiques au repertoire de l?ancienne province episcopale de Reims et des dioceses de Langres et de Troyes. Les vestiges les plus anciens sont conserves de maniere fragmentaire ou sous forme d?additions sur les livres de l?abbaye Saint-Thierry de Reims. Le fonds remois se distingue en outre par un bel ensemble d?ouvrages liturgiques destines a la celebration de la messe, tandis que les antiphonaires et breviaires du diocese de Langres (Chaumont, Langres) revelent de nombreux offices propres du sanctoral local ou diocesain. Les collections de Charleville-Mezieres et de Troyes reunissent egalement un ensemble representatif de livres liturgiques a l?usage de diverses communautes cisterciennes et cartusiennes. Les manuscrits champenois se singularisent en outre par la diversite des notations musicales. Si la notation francaise est pour ainsi dire inexistante a Reims, les manuscrits d?origine remoise utilisent, jusqu?au XIIIe siecle, une notation de type messin. En revanche, la notation a points lies et a petits carres dont la collection de la bibliotheque de Troyes conserve quelques beaux temoins semble avoir ete largement repandue dans la partie meridionale de la Champagne. Les collections champenoises offrent par ailleurs de nombreux temoins de notations neumatiques mixtes associant diversement des elements des notations messine et francaise. Une introduction presentant sommairement les fonds, leur histoire et leurs particularites, eclaire le cadre historique dans lequel ces manuscrits ont vu le jour ou ont ete utilises.

Bound, Pages: 303 p. illustrated in color. fine condition. new. ISBN 9789042929159. From the 16th to the 19th century, illuminated manuscripts were collected by the great printer-publisher Christophe Plantin and his Moretus successors and descendants. Ranging in date from the 9th to the mid-16th centuries, the manuscripts in the Museum Plantin-Moretus come from all over Europe, chiefly the Southern Netherlands and France with a significant representation of 15th-century Dutch illumination. More surprisingly, about a quarter of the collection comes from England: manuscripts of the 10th to 15th centuries that left the country with Catholic refugees. Alongside the acknowledged masterpieces and rarities, like the Bohemian Bible of 1402, are volumes that have remained virtually unknown, their aesthetic appeal and historical or textual interest often passing unnoticed in the absence of published reproductions. In this beautifully produced catalogue, each of the 102 volumes is illustrated in colour, with more extensive coverage of the 55 volumes with the most rewarding illumination. For the first time it is possible to gauge the extent and nature of this fascinating and under-explored collection, still housed in the building on the Vrijdagmarkt in Antwerp to which Plantin moved his famous sign of the Golden Compasses in 1576.

Hardback, XXVIII+616 p., 281 b/w ill., 150 x 230 mm. ISBN 9782503514406. Volume IV is devoted to the items in the Beinecke's general collection with the shelf numbers 481, 482, 483, 484, and 485, each a discrete collection of manuscript fragments. The text consists of 285 entries -- describing single leaves, groups of leaves, or pieces of leaves -- of medieval and Renaissance manuscripts written between the seventh and sixteenth centuries in Western Europe. They are, for the most part, the battered remnants of otherwise lost books from the Middle Ages. Almost all of the fragments included in this catalogue are in Latin, although there are a few items in Middle High German and in Hebrew. The two larger groups of fragments described here (MS 481 and MS 482) were assembled originally as a palaeographical collection documenting a wide range of Latin bookscripts used during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Included are specimens in Uncial, Visigothic, Merovingian, Beneventan, and humanist scripts, as well as numerous examples of Caroline minuscule and Gothic book hands,with a particular richness in eleventh- and twelfth-century manuscripts from Southern Germany. The fragments described in the catalogue are almost all derived from books. There are manuscripts of biblical texts (with and without glosses), classical and patristic authors, exegetical treatises, sermons, liturgical works, monastic rules, medieval encyclopedias, legal works, scholastic treatises, schoolbooks, grammatical works, medieval chronicles, calendars, and medieval poetry. Classical authors are represented by manuscripts of Vergil and Cicero; the Greek fathers by Basil and Origen (in Latin translation); the Latin fathers by Augustine, Jerome, and Gregory. Medieval writers include Isidore, Bede, Paul the Deacon, Notker Balbulus, Bern of Reichenau, and Thomas Aquinas; and on the secular side, Boethius, Priscian, Wirnt von Gravenburg, Eberhard of Bethune, and Ludolphus de Luco. There are numerous liturgical manuscripts, many of them with early examples of musical notation, including a substantial portion of an eleventh-century breviary; sequentiaries with works by Notker Balbulus and Gottschalk; and seventeen leaves of a twelfth-century antiphonary from Lambach that shed new light on the performance there of a Magi play. Manuscripts written in Italy, Spain, France, England, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and the Low Countries are represented. A few items can be attributed to specific writing centres, including scriptoria in Luxeuil, Reims, Tours, Fresing, Fulda, Schaffhausen, Lambach, Kremsmunster, and Melk. New.
Hardback, 446 p., 1 colour ill., 152 x 229 mm. ISBN 9782503542324. This is the first of a projected series of four volumes describing manuscripts and fragments in British libraries containing commentaries on the Latin Aristotle. This volume covers the Bodleian Library and the college libraries of the University of Oxford. It lists 397 items, including portfolios of fragments from more than one original book, dating from the late twelfth century until c. 1500. While many of these manuscripts have come to Oxford from elsewhere in Europe, some as recently as the twentieth century, the majority were made locally and used in the medieval University. Many of them, such as the important Canonici collection in the Bodleian Library, have not been adequately described before, while most of the anonymous commentaries have not been listed at all. Four indexes are provided to facilitate searching the main text.

The Duke of Hamilton had collected a remarkable series of mediaeval manuscripts, mainly illuminated, at an early age. This collection was purchased, for ?70,000, by the Prussian government. Because of the high cost of the collection, it was decided to sell a portion of it, hence this memorable sale which included the purple vellum codex of the Gospels presented by Henry VIII to Pope Leo X; it was bought by Quaritch for ?1500, sold to Theodore Irwin, of Oswego, and re-sold, in 1900, to Mr Pierpont Morgan.
