Alexander de Hales, Summa theologica Halensis
F-72sm
General Information
Written in Gothic cursive by a single hand.
Two non-consecutive leaves. The text was initially identified by William Duba, Fragmentarium, May 2023.
Original Condition
Contemporary foliation in ink (black, underlined in red) on the recto of the leaves, on upper right margin, outside the outer bounding line: 58 (?), 62.
Based on the existing text, it seems that there would have been 4 leaves between the two surviving leaves; thus these two leaves are possibly the third-innermost bifolium of a gathering.
Current Condition
Staining from leather turn-ins around the corners of the leaves and other water damage. Minor tears, especially around sewing holes.
Book Decoration and Musical Notation
2- to 3-line initials in blue with pen flourishing in red. Paragraph marks in red. Rubrics in red.
