2 vols, cloth, 4to, 33 x 27 cm, xxvii, 328 pp + atlas of 8 pp, 187 phototype facs. From the preface : "[T]he present volumes represent the first instalment of the Catalogue of the Western Manuscripts, and describe the first group of the Latin rolls and codices which are almost exclusively written in the book hand.The actual nucleus of the collection of manuscripts described in this volume consists of those acquired from Earl Spencer with the Althorp Library, purchased by Mrs. Rylands in 1892. They are, however, few in number (little over twenty), and of slight importance in comparison with the great accession that came with the purchase, in 1901, of the manuscripts of the Earl of Crawford and Balcarres, formerly at Haigh Hall. These, which constitute the first 118 numbers of the present collection, include many volumes of the greatest beauty and interest. The residue, between 50 and 60 in number, have been acquired at various times from the Phillipps and other sales, or singly from booksellers. They make up a total of 183 articles.Among the Crawford manuscripts are examples, of first-class quality, of the art and calligraphy of all the great schools of Europe. Italy is represented by the Ravenna papyrus (1), the Exultet Roll (2), the Lyra (29-31), the Colonna Missal (32-37). France by the Luxeuil Homiliary (12), the Amiens Bible (17), the Apocalypse (19), the Psalter of Jeanne de Navarre (22). From the Netherlands come the Liege Gospels (10), the portion of a Bible (16), the beautiful Horae (39). Germany is unusually well represented by the Prüm Lectionary (7), the Murbach Cyprian (15), the Altenburg Bible (4, 5), the Arbor Caritatis (18), the Gospels of Otto (98), of Svenhilda (no), of Bremen (87). There is a remarkable group of Spanish books : Beatus on the Apocalypse (8), Gregory's Moralia (83), Cassiodorus on the Psalms (89), Smaragdus (104) : and Portugal contributes a fine Armorial (28). England is less prominent ; but the Sarum Missal (24) would be a leading feature in any collection, and the Canterbury Epistles (109) is of very considerable interest. The Leges Angliae (155) is also a most remarkable book. " From the publisher's description: "The collection includes important early texts and calligraphic treasures from the great writing-schools of Europe, many encased in sumptuous jewelled and enamelled bindings, and first-class examples of medieval illumination from England and the continent. Among the subjects represented are biblical, liturgical and patristic texts, hagiography, history, theology, philosophy, law and science."
