  • Résumé : CCCC MS 437 is a thirteenth-century portable Bible of small size and written in very small script, probably made in northern France. The manuscript begins with a heavily abbreviated copy of Peter of Poitiers (d. 1205), Genealogia historiarum (Compendium in genealogia Christi), and ends with a list of themata for sermons with a listing of gospel readings for the Sundays of the year.
