Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 29 of 2019

In continuing the recent pattern, the 34 manuscripts added this week have several paired sets. Pal.lat.1692 and Pal.lat.1693 both appear to be copies of P. Papinius Statius' Thebais with interlinear glossing by Boccaccio. We also have a matched set of Epistles and Homilies by St Augustine in Ross.192 and Ross.193. Vat.Lat. 1574(formerly microfilm scan) and Vat.lat.1577 are two copies of Propertius' Elegiae, finally Vat.lat.2570 and Vat.lat.2580 are both works by Juan de Torquemada. The interesting combination of red/blue penwork and a small cadel form the first line of Vat.lat.2570 (see f.1v to the right) - "Ubera mea sicut turris". It appears that his arms, complete with Cardinal's hat, are painted at the bottom of the page (cf. Vat.lat.1130 f.2r), but this is unconfirmed.
