(Mark, chapts. 9-10, including the Transfiguration)nn"ILLUMINATED VELLUM MANUSCRIPT LEAVES FROM A PORTABLE BIBLE IN LATIN. (France, ca. 1250) 5 3/4 x 3 3/4". Double column, 49 lines, written in a tiny gothic book hand. Each leaf featuring capitals struck with red, headlines and verse numbers in blue and red, and one-line versal initials in red or blue. Many leaves with larger (typically four-line) initials in blue or red with elaborate penwork infilling and marginal extension in the same and contrasting colors. SOME LEAVES WITH LARGER INITIALS (typically seven- and nine-lines high) IN DIVIDED RED AND BLUE, OFTEN WITH VERY LONG MARGINAL EXTENSION, sometimes the entire length of the leaf. Most leaves with at least some (and a few leaves with many) MARGINAL ANNOTATIONS IN AN INCREDIBLY TINY HAND. Leaves variably dampstained diagonally across upper portion (sometimes as little as a tenth of the leaf affected, sometimes as much as a third, the discoloration never really absent, but never really dark), vellum a bit cockled, but pleasing leaves nevertheless, the text still quite distinct, the vellum generally clean, and the margins especially ample. Available are a number of leaves from a sizable fragment of a so-called pocket Bible, a 13th century innovation that is discussed in item #9, above. Of special interest here are the annotations: while the script of our leaves is quite tiny (though no smaller than many other 13th century portable Bibles), the annotations here are half(!) the size of the text, a fact that is almost as astonishing as the fact that these marginal notes are beautifully written and perfectly legible (though requiring for most eyes the assistance of magnification). Provided with each leaf offered here is an English translation of the text present on both sides of the leaf. While no English printed version is equivalent to the Latin Vulgate text used here, we have chosen one that comes close, using the 1582 Rheims New Testament and a 1635 printing of the Douay Old Testament.",Full pdf available, https://dl.mospace.umsystem.edu/mu/islandora/object/mu%3A439247/datastream/PDF/view

Manuscript vellum bifolium (two leaves) from a book of hours. The text includes parts of the Gospel readings and some prayers. Folio 2r begins with Psalm 116:1: "Laudate Dominum omnes gentes; laudate eum omnes populi." France, late 15th or early 16th century. Batarde hand. Text in one column of 17 lines. One and two-line illuminated initials, in gold, red, violet and white. 12.7 x 9 cm. Catalogued by PRB&M (short description included with the item).

A complete parchment leaf, double columns of 29 lines, brown ink, written in Carolingian minuscule. The text includes, in Latin, two homilies on the Circumcision by Origen and Bede. 294 x 236 mm (242 x 190 mm). The fragment is stored in a binder from The Schoyen Collection, MS 621.

"Folio extra (61 cm x 36 cm, 20.25" x 14.25"). This single parchment leaf is from a large choirbook—an antiphonal. (The term choirbook refers to a particular format of a codex of liturgical music, intended to be placed on a lectern in the midst of the liturgical choir and to be large enough for those standing in the choir to sing from; an Antiphonal, specifically, contains the antiphons and responsories for the celebration of the daily office.) This particular choirbook is written with eight lines of text and music per page. The text is in black ink in a gothic liturgical hand, with two red initials on each page, for a total of four, the verse and response signs being also in red, and the first letter of the second half of the responsory being overlined in red. The music is on a four-line red staff with black neums, as is usual.nnThe text and music on this leaf are part of the responsory Cantemus domino ... in the eighth mode (beginning with the words "et ascensorem"), the third responsory at Matins for the Fourth Sunday of Lent, the text for which is excerpted from the canticle of Moses (Exod. 15:1-19).nnHesbert, Dorn René-Jean. Corpus Antiphonalium Officii, IV, 6270, var. A ("Currus Pharaonis ..."). Traces of soiling, a little creased, very small tears to one margin from sewing holes, four rectangular spots with remnants of adhesive on verso. Lightly ruled in pencil; gutter edge with a streak of dust-soiling and outer edge with prick marks (for ruling the page) remaining.",Full pdf available, https://dl.mospace.umsystem.edu/mu/islandora/object/mu%3A439211/datastream/PDF/view

"12mo (appr. 14.5 x 10 cm, 5.75 x 4"). [1] f. Leaf from a psalter, likely part of a breviary or book of hours; the text on this leaf is part of Psalm 34 (35). One side of the leaf is visible in its mat, and it contains 6 one-line gilt initials, framed in pink and blue, with white tracery within and outlined in black. The lines' fillers are similarly pink and blue, studded with gold roundels. The text is written in black in a gothic bookhand, less angular than some; the pink used is almost reddish purple, and the blue is relatively pale. The pages are ruled in pink, 16 lines to the page.nnIn a simple cream-white mat. Excellent condition.",Full pdf available, https://dl.mospace.umsystem.edu/mu/islandora/object/mu%3A439484/datastream/PDF/view

"Two leaves (15.7 x 11 cm). Textualis hand. Four or five one-line illuminated initials per page and line-fillers (some unusual). One two-line illuminated initial."

"Two leaves (10.7 x 8 cm). Hybrida hand. One two-line initial on one leaf, with ink flourishes in margins; a total of 8 small initials (red alternating with blue; one-line high) on other pages."

TWO ILLUMINATED VELLUM MANUSCRIPT LEAVES WITH UNFINISHED MARGINAL DECORATION, FROM A BOOK OF HOURS IN LATIN. TEXTS FROM NONE AND VESPERS FROM THE HOURS OF THE CROSS. (France, ca. 1415) 6 3/4 x 4 3/4". Single column, 16 lines, in a bold and attractive uncluttered gothic book hand. Each leaf with identical decoration: capitals struck with yellow, three one-line and three two-line initials in gold on a blue and magenta ground with white tracery, two line endings in the same colors, BOTH SIDES OF BOTH LEAVES WITH DELICATE DRAWINGS IN LIGHT BROWN INK OF FLORAL SPRAYS emanating from the two-line initials (and in the upper and lower margins of the recto of each leaf), THE DRAWINGS MEANT TO BE PAINTED IN, BUT THE WORK NEVER COMPLETED. Just a hint of soiling, some minor fading in the text without loss of legibility, otherwise in fine condition.nnThese leaves, which appeared consecutively in the Book of Hours from which they were taken, are excellent specimens of the illuminator's work in progress. It is clear from these examples that the scribe's work was done first and that another artisan, no doubt with higher status, followed up by painting the border decoration (a third person may have done the initials and line endings as an intermediate step)." nnBook of Hours (unfinished),Full pdf available, https://dl.mospace.umsystem.edu/mu/islandora/object/mu%3A439275/datastream/PDF/view

Book of Hours (includes part of the Office of the Dead). "Textualis hand. Six one-line illuminated initials on fields of red on one side; five one-line and one two-line on the other."

Manuscript on vellum, in Latin. France?, ca. 1500? Folio (30.3 x 22.8 cm, 12 x 9"). [1] leaf. The ever useful Patrologia Latina gives the authorship of the text on this leaf as "Auctor incertus (Augustinus Hipponensis?)" and goes on to inform us, "Est Petri Chrysologi sermo quinquagesimus tertius, sed hic passim interpolatus, seu multis auctior sententiis, quas commonstrant ansulae. Confer Alcuini librum de Virtutibus et Vitiis, cap. 6."nnThe main text begins: "Felices pacifici, quoniam filii Dei vocabuntur. Meritum christianae virtutis vilescit in cunctis, si unitatem non habeat pacis, nec pervenit ad vocabulum filii, nisi per nomen pacifici. Pax est, quae exspoliat hominem servitute, dat nomen ingenuum, mutat cum conditione personam; ex famulo liberum, filium facit ex servo."nnThat is, the leaf contains a discussion of peace and peacemakers, based on the line in the Beatitudes "Blessed are the peacemakers . . ."(Matthew 5:9). It is written in brown ink, in a beautiful and clear gothic bâtarde script, in two columns of 40 lines. On the recto there is a three-line initial F (beginning the text "Felices pacifici . . .") with elaborate pen tracery in red extending a total of 15 lines. Some of the letters on the top line of text have some striking tall ascenders. Beneath the last line of text on the verso is "Explicit de pace."nnPatrologia Latina, XXXIX, col. 1858. Natural flaw in one margin, not touching text. Light soiling in bottom margins.",Full pdf available, https://dl.mospace.umsystem.edu/mu/islandora/object/mu%3A439343/datastream/PDF/view
