| Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary This first part of the three-volume Engelberg Bible (together with Cod. 4 and Cod. 5) contains the Pentatuch and the books of the Prophets. The captioned pen sketch with verse of dedication on fol. 1v
portrays Abbot Frowin (1143-1178) presenting the codex to Mary, the
patroness of the Cloister. This large-format volume was, according to
the colophon on 281v,
written by Richene, the only scribe from Frowin’s time that we know by
name. The careful preparation of the parchment with decorative
needlework and the staid style of script and initials in limited colors
are characteristic of the recognizable works of Frowin’s library. |
