Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 3 of 2024

It was an extremely quiet week at the Vatican, only sixteen manuscripts were digitized. Of those five came from Ott.lat, four each from Barb.lat and Vat.lat, and one each from P.I.O., Patetta and Pal.gr.

To the right is a page from Vat.lat.6772, a 14th C collection of papal bulls, issued by the pope in Avignon. The Bull starting here, starting on f.XXr (they foliated in roman numerals this time), addresses an unnamed Hungarian cleric and instructs him to investigate the miracles of Princess Margaret(† 1270), daughter of King Bela IV. Pope Urban VI wrote this decree shortly into his controversial reign, and whether or not it was acted on, it was not successful. Margaret was not formally consecrated until the reign of another controversial pope, Pius XII.

At the bottom is a line of Syriac from f.6v of P.I.O.32.
