Manuscript Summary:
Manuscript Summary
This volume contains St. Bonaventure's Legenda maior of St. Francis, the Vita beati Antonii and two documents regarding the Portiuncula indulgence. The manuscript was written by Elisabeth von Amberg (ff. 1-127) and Katherina von Purchausen (ff. 129-176) in the year 1337. It is decorated with an initial portraying St. Francis as a knight (f. 4r) and a vignette showing the bestowal of the Stigmata (f. 77v). The appearance of the name of St. Clara in the text suggests that the codex was written in a cloister of the Poor Clares, perhaps the Paradise. It came into the posession of the Capuchin cloister in Frauenfeld at the beginning of the 17th century and has been held in the provincial archive of the Capuchins in Lucerne since 1848. (ber)

Peter Kamber, Überlieferte Manuskripte und franziskanische Mendikanten. Erschliessung mittelalterlichen Handschriften aus Beständen der Minoriten im Kanton Luzern, in: Helvetia franciscana, 47 (2018), 11-42.

Die im Vorderdeckel eingekerbte Abkürzung LCV auf dem Vorderdeckel steht für Liber Conventus Villingani. Die Handschrift kam wohl 1794 bei der Versteigerung der Bibliothek durch Kauf an das Kapuzinerkloster Frauenfeld. Als Ursprung der Handschrift kann man sich das Klarissenkloster am Villinger Bickentor vorstellen.
