Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Following the newest procedures of the "archaeology of the book", this catalogue raisonne presents a detailed description of the Coptic holdings of the Pierpont Morgan Library. The first efforts to provide such a catalogue date back to the twenties and thirties of this century. The introduction includes chapters on the modern history of the Coptic manuscripts, their antiquity and provenance, the method employed in this catalogue to describe them, and the history of the ancient monastery of St. Michael near present-day Hamuli, whose library yielded the bulk of the Morgan Coptic collection. In the individual entries, the literary contents of the manuscripts are treated at length and secondary literature, including modern editions and translations, is listed. Extensive concordances facilitate the use of the catalogue. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Catalogue of Coptic Manuscripts in the Pierpont Morgan Library (Oriental Series 2) Series: Corpus of Illuminated Manuscripts, 5 Authors: Depuydt L. Year: 1993 ISBN: 978-90-6831-498-4 Pages: XXXVII-468 plates Price: 375EURO Add to cart Summary: This album of photographic plates is a companion volume to the descriptive Catalogue of Coptic Manuscripts in the Pierpont Morgan Library. It presents a visual record of the Morgan Coptic collection. The Morgan Coptic collection is unrivaled in wealth of Coptic manuscript illumination dating to before AD 1000, including a near monopoly on early Coptic frontispieces. Following a brief introduction and a few images of the desert location near the town of al-Hamuli, where the bulk of the Library's Coptic manuscripts were unearthed in 1910, the body of the album presents the collection for codicologists, art historians, and paleographers under the two categories of Decoration and Script. The album contains a comprehensive record of frontispieces, headpieces, tailpieces (including what may be the oldest Christian illumination), a sampling of marginal ornaments and ornamental initials, specimens of the scripts of most literary manuscripts, and selected documentary texts and bindings. Full concordances between call numbers, plate numbers, and catalogue numbers are also provided. Language : english text - the set of two Vols. Size: in-4°.
