| Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary The red-painted shelfmark and the binding suggest that this Priscian manuscript, from the end of the eleventh or the beginning of the twelfth century, belonged to the small remaining collection of the Basel Cordeliers. It contains the Institutiones maiores (books 1-16 of the widely copied grammar book, without books 17, Syntax, or 18, the Ars minor) and some interesting fragments that likewise pertain to grammar and rhetoric and thus to the higher education of a good popular preacher. On the front pastedown is a note on the previous owners and the price of the book as part of a larger transaction, as well as a pen trial in German concerning a horse trade. |
