Manuscript on paper of several treatises on orthography, including works by Sextus Pompeius Festus, Guarino da Verona, and Gasparino Barzizza
- Description
-
In Italian.
Script: copied by two scribes: the first part copied by a scribe called Stephanus in Humanistica Semitextualis Libraria; according to Barbero this scribe is perhaps identifiable with Stefano Guarnieri; the last part is by a scribe writing a script halfway between Humanistica Textualis Libraria and Cursiva Libraria. The opening majuscules of paragraphs protrude into the margin.
Red stroking of majuscules on pp. 1-11, 22-31, 44-51, 64-73, 88-93 only. There is ample space for headings and initials (with guide letters), but they have not been executed, except headings in Gothica Textualis on pp. 46, 49, 51, 66, 71, 92; plain red Gothic initials (4 lines) on pp. 46 , 49, 51, 66, 71, 92; a few initials have been entered at a later date.
Manuscript on paper of 1) Sextus Pompeius Festus (2nd century), De verborum significatione, epitome by Paulus Diaconus (8th Century). 2) Guarinus Veronensis (Guarino da Verona, 1374-1460), De vocabulorum observatione (Lexicon Servianum). 3) Gasparinus Barzizius Pergamensis (Gasparino Barzizza, c. 1360-1431), De orthographia (alphabetical part; see article 4). 4) Gasparinus Barzizius, De orthographia (systematic part), incomplete.
