3 Leaves from a Latin Religious Handbook
in Small-Format
[First published on 1 February 2016, with updates.]
Continuing our series of Manuscript Studies (now with a Contents List), Mildred Budny reports on a set of 3 non-continuous leaves from a dismembered pocket-sized Latin religious handbook, purchased online and now in a private collection. Written in Gothic rotunda script with simple bichrome embellishments, the leaves came from a bound volume of unknown origin and provenance.
