Magister Stephanus super libros Machabeorum et super Ezechielem [titel fenestra]
Stephen Langton - ca. 1155 - 1228 (VIAF: 7385506) - auteur
In manuscript 38 two commentaries on books of the Bible are bound together. These were written by Stephen Langton (d. 1228), archbishop of Canterbury and one of the driving forces behind the Magna Carta: (ff. 1r-42v) Stephen Langton super Macchabeorum; and (ff. 43r-124v) Stephen Langton super Hiezechielem. Both works are also present in a contemporaneous collection of Langton's Bible commentaries, known as manuscript 37. Manuscript 38 was copied in the thirteenth century, possibly in either Ten Duinen or Ter Doest. It must have been the work of multiple scribes, as more than one scribal hand can be distinguished. The layout is overall similar, with the text copied in two columns and all initials added in red ink. The back cover contains a note with the contents of manuscript 39. The manuscript is bound in a seventeenth-century binding of the 'Campmans' type. [Summary by Dr. Mark Vermeer]
