medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I did one of those Library things using the WorldCat database:
Subject - Manuscripts
Keyword - medieval
keyword - facsimile
The result was 700+ hits, beginning with the Cloisters Apocalypse.

> No, many Manuscripts were filmed after World War II. Not all. The printed
book lists sold by Manuscripta are different.
ahhh...
i wasn't aware of that.
wish that the mss. in the Bibl. mun. at Chartres had been filmed before the
catastrophic fire of May, 1944:

on a related matter:
there is, as it happens, a very nice 11th c. Chartrain ms. in the Angelica
library in Rome (Angelica 1085).
a few years ago i came across a couple of color reproductions of two
reasonably spectacular illuminations from it --just enough to severely tempt
me-- but have not been able to find any others, either in print or on the
web.
does anyone have any ideas about how i might run down some more
reproductions?
i'm about out, myself.
