About this Paged Content
This is a thirteenth-century compendium of moral and didactic writings, with a colophon dating the manuscript to 1268. The book contains a varied collection of texts, ranging from Roman Seneca in the 1st century, through the North African apologist Fulgentius in the sixth, to the near-contemporary sermons and the recent Moralitates of the learned Englishman Holcot. The manuscript is a good example of a late medieval compendium, and contains a variety of authors known all across Europe.
