Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 16 of 2019

See the Macro Typography page for details on the 24 manuscripts digitized this week.

Though a light week due to Easter, there were still some interesting manuscripts added. One of note is Vat.lat.2509, a collection of legal texts starting with Bernardus Papiensis' Compilatio with apparatus by Tancred of Bologna. This has roughly the standard layout of a legal text, similar to a copy of Gratian's Decretals, but the scribe has been more fluid with his use of the text block to optimize the page, see f.11v to the right
