Hello beautiful people,
Can anyone help me ID this manuscript ? I know it's around 12th~15th century England, but am struggling to pinpoint the exact one. It's not the Auchinlek MS.
Hello wowrakan. Happy new year to you and to all.
These pages seem to belong to a religious-themed book in which there are a good number of French words. Religious books were almost always written in Latin. I doubt very much that this one, written in a Middle English hybrid, predates the fourteenth century.
In addition, the Gothic font is very similar to books from the 14th century, including copies of Chaucer's works. The shape of the pilcrows also takes me back to that same time. Very difficult to specify more, but english is not my native language. There are people on this forum who can give you better information.
