Description:
CCCC MS 506 was written in Prague between 1393 and some time after 1399. It contains a large collection of sermons by Guibert of Tournai OFM (d. 1284), extracts from the Postilla litteralis in uetus et nouum testamentum by Nicholas of Lyre OFM (d. 1349), a Disputatio de censibus perpetuis by Michael Blide, doctor decretorum of the University of Prague in 1399, and finally a canon law tract. The dating is based on a colophon at the end of the sermons and on the text by Michael Blide. The book has a contemporary binding. This volume is part of the Elbing collection; a group of manuscripts which belonged to a Brigittine convent at Elbing (Elblag), near Gdansk. The collection was donated to Corpus Christi College by Richard Pernham (1583?-1628) or his wife, Mary, whose signature is in many of these books.
