Dated and datable digitized manuscripts
So far as I know there has been no attempt to gather together the large number of digitized manuscripts that have been identified as dated or datable. This page is a preliminary attempt to do so. Arrangement is by country of origin (currently England, France, Germany, Italy, other/unlocalized and then by (earliest) date. My original intention was to include only manuscripts that have been fully digitized, but this would have made for a much shorter list. Manuscripts that have NOT been fully digitized are identified with an asterisk (*). The symbol † indicates that the link is to a digitized image of one of the catalogues of dated manuscripts.
Current coverage includes all relevant digitized manuscripts known to me in the following collections:
-
Cambridge, Corpus Christi College: information derived from P. R. Robinson, Catalogue of dated and datable manuscripts c.737-1600 in Cambridge libraries (Cambridge, 1988), and from Parker Library on the Web
-
