Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 22 of 2021

A quiet week this week with only 18 manuscripts digitized. A number of Greek manuscripts in the Vat.gr fond have been added as well as three more from the works of Gaetano Marini. One of the other manuscripts added this week is a copy of Beato Amadeu da Silva's Nova Apocalipse, Vat.lat.5680 f.9r to the right. Composed in Portugal in the late 15th C, this work prophesied a "Angelic Pastor" (future Pope) who, alongside an Emperor, would restore harmony in the world under the leadership of the Church. This was influential in the 16th C as the Reformation and later Counter-Reformation swept across Europe.

The bar at the bottom comes from the start of Georgius Pachymeres' History, found on p.1 of Vat.gr.1775
