- Description:
- Binding: Original undecorated white parchment (spine repaired) over wooden boards; spine with three raised bands. Remnants (rectangular brass plates fixed with four nails) of two clasps attached to the rear cover. At the top of the front cover the damaged early inscription in ink: “*******o*ale” (pastorale?)., On many pages the reading is impaired by the acid ink., Script: Copied by one hand in bold Gothica Cursiva Libraria. The running headlines and the marginal notes are written in small Gothica Cursiva Currens of often scant legibility. The pastedowns are copied by a contemporary hand writing a very bold and angular Gothica Hybrida Libraria (Fractura)., The headings are written or underlined in red; red heightening of the majuscules and red plain initials. There is no red heightening and the initials are not executed on ff. 133-156., and The modern pencil foliation, in the lower corners, skips a leaf after f. 217 (= f. 217 bis).

- Alternative Title:
- Frater Bruno
- Description:
- Binding: Twentieth century. Yellow velvet over rounded wooden boards. The former cover consists of a 17th-century document on parchment with text on the inner side, largely illegible due to the remnants of paste on its surface, issued by “Frater Bruno [d'Affringues, 1600-1631], ... totius ordinis Cartusiensis generalis minister”. The former binding contained also three fragments of a 13th-century manuscript on parchment, containing liturgical directions. These are now kept apart with the former cover and a former parchment flyleaf., Red heightening of the majuscules, but layout and decoration lack uniformity. (1) Up to f. 12r inclusively the chapters start in the middle of a line and are preceded by a red paragraph mark; the corresponding chapter number is written by another hand at the same height in one of the side margins, and the chapter heading is added by the same hand in one of the margins and connected to the beginning of the chapter by a reference mark or by a connecting line. (2) From f. 12v up to at least f. 22v the chapters open at the left margin with a 1- or 2-line red plain initial and the corresponding heading and chapter number are copied in red by a contemporary hand in the open space on the preceding line; instructions for these are provided by the scribe (B) in small handwriting alongside the upper or lower edges. (3) Starting f. 23v for the final chapters 40-42 we see the type of layout and decoration as described under (1). On f. 1r a large and narrow “shaped inset” littera duplex in red and green initial F in red and green (8/16 ll.). with extremely developed penwork in the same colours and green extensions in the left margin., Script: Copied by two scribes writing a heavily abbreviated early Gothica Textualis Libraria with simplified letter forms: hand A (ff. 1r-10r, line 5) is rather bold and uses single-compartment a and straight s in all positions; hand B (ff. 10r, line 6-26v) is slightly less careful, there is more variety in the shape of a, and final s is either round or straight., and The lower edges of ff. 2, 7 and 11 are irregular; the lower outer corners of ff. 18, 23 and 24 are defective.
