Shelfmark: MC 27 (Monte Cassino 27) Author: Augustinius Title: Enarrationes in Psalmos; Tractatus in Epistolam Iohannis ad Parthos Language(s): Latin Country: Italy City: Monte Cassino Type: Codex Dimensions: 500 x 315 mm, 492 pages with 49 lines Date: 1087-1105 CE Holding Institution: Monte Cassino Library Notes on script: Written in Cassinese script; workmanlike but not expert. The base line wavers at times and the lateral spacing shows extreme variation, in contrast to the care of master scribes at this point. Ruling on flesh sides, each bifolium separately, top three horizontal lines and bottom 2-3 ruled to edge. Notes on decoration: Initial colored with orange-red, light green, bright yellow darkened in places by a tan wash, and lavendar; in form it is traditional but shows the Oderisian propensity for traditional initials with untraditional perfect symmetry (except, in this case, the animal tongue). |
