Manipulus curatorum

Description:

CCCC MS 225 contains a fifteenth-century copy of the Manipulus curatorum, a work of pastoral care attributed to the fourteenth-century author Guido de Monte Rocherii. The manuscript was never part of Matthew Parker's collection, being donated to Corpus Christi by John Gibson (matriculated 1717). For this reason the manuscript does not appear in any of the catalogues before Nasmith's of 1777, though a hand-written entry describing the work was added to a copy of Stanley's catalogue of the collection.
