• Résumé : MS 508 is a fifteenth-century Bohemian or German manuscript containing a miscellany of theological and devotional texts. These include the Expositio symboli apostolorum by the theologian, Johannes Marienwerder (1343-1417), the anonymous De quattuor cautelis religiosorum, the Praeceptorium seu Expositio in decalogum by Henricus de Frimaria OESA (d. 1340), regent of the Erfurt studium of the Austin Friars, the Pseudo-Bernard of Clairvaux, Speculum peccatoris, the Stimulus amoris by James of Milan OFM (fl. c. 1296), and De doctrina siue preparatione cordis by Hugh of Saint-Cher (c. 1200-1263). The book is in its original binding. This volume is part of the Elbing collection; a group of manuscripts which belonged to a Brigittine convent at Elbing (Elblag), near Gdansk. The collection was donated to Corpus Christi College by Richard Pernham (1583?-1628), or by his wife, Mary, whose signature is in many of the books.
