Manuscript Summary:Jean Germain Fidèle Bajol is both the author and the copyist of this history, in Latin, of the bishops of Basel. He dedicated his text to Bishop François Xavier de Neveu (pp. 7-11), whose coat of arms is depicted immediately before the dedication (p. 6). The text consists of eight biographies in order: Jean Conrad de Roggenbach (pp. 13-14); Guillaume Rink de Baldenstein (pp. 15-16); Jean Conrad de Reinach-Hirtzbach (pp. 17-23); Jacques Sigismond de Reinach-Steinbrunn (pp. 24-27); Joseph Guillaume Rinck de Baldenstein (pp. 28-33); Simon Nicolas de Montjoye d’Hirsingue (pp. 34-39); Frédéric Louis François de Wangen-Geroldseck (pp. 40-45); Franz Joseph Sigismond de Roggenbach (pp. 46-55); François-Xavier de Neveu (pp. 56-61). The carefully-produced copy is clearly structured: a rubric gives the name of the bishop, then the text follows in a single column inside a pencil-drawn frame, with the dates in the margin. The last date indicated, 1803 (p. 60), provides the terminus post quem for the completion of the volume.(rou)
