Written in Italy in the second half of the fourteenth century, ff. 380-387v probably in Naples or in the Kingdom of Naples. Belonged to Giuseppe Martini (1870-1944), Italian bookseller and collector; H.P. Kraus, list no.189 (1958), “Text Manuscripts from the Middle Ages to the XVIII Century for the most part from the Giuseppe Martini Collection,” no.92.

Bought by UCLA from Kraus, New York, in 1966.

Physical description:

Parchment, ff. i (modern) + 391 (foliated 1-388, with 45 , 213 , 301 , ) + i (modern); 148 × 105 (93 × 68; fols. 381-387, 100 × 68) mm. 1-3 4 5-9 10 11-18 19 20-31 32 34 . Plain horizontal catchwords in the center of the lower margin. 2 columns of 31 lines (fols. 381-387, 26/34 lines); ruled in lead, double bounding lines. Written in a small round Italian gothic bookhand (littera textualis); ink varies from grayish brown to greenish. On f. 1, a 2-line illuminated pink and blue initial with a border of pink and blue stylized floral patterns in the inner and part of the upper and lower margins; 2-line initials alternately red on blue penwork and blue on red; initials sometimes slashed with red; paragraph marks alternately red and blue; titles in red minuscule, inconsistent in numbering the Sundays of the liturgical year. The sermons on the Transfiguration that fill the last 2½ columns of quire 33 and the added quire 34 (ff. 380rb-387v) are a slightly later addition in a rounded script that expands letters more in width than in height; minims show a tendency to be broken; the a is flat-topped and squarish; the tironian 7 appears both crossed and uncrossed; top and bottom lines show long ascenders and descenders with chancery flourishes slashed with red; strong French influence is seen in the red and blue penwork extending from top to bottom margin, esp. ff. 383v, 386v, 387v. Many marginal notes throughout the codex by three or more contemporary or slightly later cursive gothic hands, one of which has carefully corrected the text.

Bound in wooden boards backed in leather with diagonal rules and traces of two clasps, s. XIX.

Note:

Secundo folio: [sordida-] rum scilicet vestem nigram
