Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary This paper manuscript, copied in the fourteenth century by many hands, is a collection of spiritual texts. It has two fifteenth-century ex libris of the Abbey Library (p. 1), as well as the stamp of Abbot Diethelm Blarer, from between 1553 and 1564 (p. 64). On the top pastedown appears a table of contents contemporary to the fifteenth-century half binding in red leather. An excerpt from the Stimulus amoris (III, 17) starts the book (pp. 1-9). It is followed by a widely-copied book by the Franciscan Bonaventure, De triplice via, also known under the title Incendium amoris (pp. 10-25), and then a treatise on the eight beatitudes (pp. 25-36). Passages from John Chrysostom’s De reparatione lapsi appear in two different places in this manuscript (pp. 41-54 and 186-193). Hugh of Saint Victor’s Soliloquium de arra animae, also widely copied in the Middle Ages, follows on pages 54-64 (Goy 1976, n° 94). Finally, this volume contains the Speculum humanae salvationis (pp. 65-171), extended with two of its three non-typological chapters, De septem stationibus passionis Christi (pp. 171-177) and De septem tristitiis B. V. Mariae (pp. 177-185). Contrary to normal practice, this text is not illustrated; even the fact that it is rhymed is hardly observable, since it is copied continuously. |
