Description

This comprehensive catalogue by Boydell Press provides the first adequate documentation of the 277 medieval manuscripts held in the Worcester Cathedral Library. This collection is the largest in any English cathedral aside from Durham, featuring works that primarily date from the eleventh to the late fifteenth centuries. Most of these manuscripts originated from the pre-Reformation Cathedral Priory. The volume offers a deep look into the contents, physical characteristics, and history of these little-known texts. Researchers and historians will find specialized strengths in areas such as scholastic theology, biblical studies, sermons from the 13th to 15th centuries, and early music. This work serves as an essential reference for anyone studying the historical holdings of the Worcester Cathedral Library.
