Music to my Eyes

I'd never seen this anonymous woodcut in a 1491 book at #NewberryLibrary (Inc. 571) or the music it is part of anywhere previously... has anyone else? Beautiful addition in any case!

The first line only has "Iohannes" visible. The next "De nuptiis et de matrimonio" can clearly be read. The last: "duo evangel-" decline as needed. Looks early XIII.

HSP and HSC aren't really competitors. HSC is for German-language manuscripts worldwide. HSP is primarily for manuscripts in German Collections. If you cite something, use the HSP formulation of the institution and shelfmark, not the HSC one.

Well, the whole spine is on the site. It's just that someone decided to crop the spine to get rid of the black space, and, as a result, the default viewer (and bsky) give it a crappy rendition. The bad news is that someone put the shelfmark sticker directly over the key part of the dating.

And it took less than fourteen years!

I also had high school French. By the time I got my PhD, I was fluent in Latin, and cranking out the editiones principes, I was reading Aristotle in Greek, fluent in Italian and French, and not terrible in German.

Years ago, when I applied to Iowa history in medieval, I was in my first semester of Latin my senior year. When I was accepted, I was in the second semester. I read some catalines over the summer and audited a third-semester course while starting my MA. (1/3)
