Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 41 of 2019

Most of the 52 manuscripts added by the Vatican this week represent the Medieval or early Renaissance world, Vat.lat.5360, however, contains an interesting bridge between the scientific worlds of the Classical and Medieval worlds and those of the Early Modern period. f.5v (see right) contains a model of the Aristotelian universe, with the 4 elemental spheres, earth, water, air and fire, surrounded by the spheres of the heavens, a good Classical universe. The illustration for Terra and Aqua, however is a post-Magellanic earth, with both the east and west coasts of North and South America defined, as well as a plausible Antartica.

The border below comes from the first page of a Lectionary of some sort, Ross.273 f.1r
