[Essentials] List of relevant herbal manuscripts?
#19
From that "family tree", I get that 28 manuscripts of the Livre Des Simple Medecines were derived from You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.. That sounds wrong. Collins says that the Livre (e.g. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., Collins' Plate XXX) is the French translation of Tractatus De Herbis (Egerton 747), and indeed the text for each plant is as long as that in Egerton 747, with only one or two plants per page on two columns (while the Florence ms has a single paragraph for each plant and a fixed layout of exactly 4 plants per page); the illustrations in the Livre are like those in Egerton 747, without the fantastic elements added to Florence Pal. 586.
