| Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary This manuscript primarily preserves a collection of sermons that were copied in the fifteenth century and were intended to serve as models for preachers. Into that pre-existing codex were inserted a number of texts stemming from the beginning of courses at the University of Paris copied in the middle of the fourteenth century. These are principial lectures (principia) to the Book of Sentences of Petrus Lombardus and the Sacred Scriptures, but not only. They were most likely bound into this manuscript because of their resemblance to sermons. Four of the texts copied here have appeared in modern critical editions, but without taking recourse to this manuscript because it was unknown to the editors. These are: pseudo-Methodius' Epistola de Antichristo; Pope Clement VI (Pierre Roger)'s Collatio ("Salomon sedebit") approving the election of Charles IV; Humbert de Preuilly's Principium in metaphysicam; the Principium "Omnium artifex docuit me sapientiam," which has been ascribed to Bonaventure. |
