Codex Rubeæ Vallis
This manuscript originated in Rodendael Abbey near Brussels. After it was obtained by Count Paul Riant, he left it to the Abbey of St. Maurice at the end of the 19th century. The manuscript consists of 24 texts of various lengths, most of which belong to the intellectual movement referred to as devotio moderna in the 15th century Low Countries. In particular, the manuscript contains exempla by Jacques Vitry, The Imitation of Christ or the Liber floretus, the latter dated to 1416. Artificial composite manuscript from the 15th century.
