A total of thirty-eight manuscripts were digitized this week. Following the recent pattern, the vast majority were from Capp.Sist, which added twenty-one, and a further eight from it's sub collection, Capp.Sist.Diari. For the rest, four came from Cerrulli.pers, and one each from P.I.O, P.I.O.slav, Barb.lat, and Vat.ebr. The final volume, actually a combination of two printed books, came from the rarely seen Borg.ill collection, which contains volumes from the Balkans, formerly the Roman province of Illyricum.
That volume was Borg.ill.19, a sammelband of a breviary in Croatian, written in the Glagolitic script, the oldest of the Slavic scripts. This calendar portion of the manuscript, from which the leaf to the right, f.3r, comes is the older of the two parts, printed in Venice in 1491. The remainder of this volume, and the two successive volumes in the fond, contain the rest of the test of the Breviary, printed in 1561, also in Venice.
At the bottom is part of the border decoration from Vat.ebr.533, an 18th C Megilat Esther. This one was hand written and decorated, but in the style of printed/engraved works of the time. For whatever reason only this membrane, the fourth of five, was colored.
