Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 15 of 2024

Even by recent weeks, this was a quiet week of digitizations, with only thirteen manuscripts added this week. The majority of these, eight, were from Ott.lat, three were from Barb.lat and one each came from Chigiani and Vat.gr

To the right is is f.37v from *Ott.lat.886, a late 16th C copy of Laevinus Torrentius' Hymnorum, de partu Virginis, ad Pium V. This work was printed in Leiden by Christopher Plantin as part of the Poemata sacra in 1575. The Vatican copy is prefaced with a dedicatory letter to Pope Pius V.

At the bottom is a line of text, well two lines of text since it cuts across both columns, from f.2r of Barb.lat.1454. This is a 14th C copy of Guillaume Durand's Speculum Judiciale
