Abstract/Contents

Summary
CCCC MS 507, dating from the late fourteenth century, probably made in Germany, contains a collection of sermons. The main part of the book contains the Sermones quadragesimales by Iacobus de Voragine OP (d. 1298), a series of sermons for the season of Lent. It also contains sermons attributed to Bernard of Clairvaux OCist (1090-1153), and Henricus de Frimaria OESA (d. 1340). 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 either Richard Pernham (1583?-1628) or his wife Mary, whose name is in many of these books.
Contents
Sermones quadragesimales -- Homiliae quatuor super Missus est -- Sermones quadragesimales -- Two sermons -- Letters of Pope Boniface and Pope Alexander to the Teutonic Knights -- List of indulgences
