Manuscript Summary:
Manuscript Summary
This parchment manuscript has two collections of sermons on saints. The first is ascribed to the Dominican Peregrinus de Oppeln (pp. 3-250), whose name appears in the rubrics at the top of the winter (p. 3) and summer (p. 131) parts. The second collection, copied by a hand contemporary to the first, contains sermons by Jacobus de Voragine (pp. 251-346). That these authors were dominican is reflected in the importance given, for example, to Saint Catherine of Siena by Peregrinus (three sermons are dedicated to her, pp. 239-250), or to Saint Dominic by Jacobus de Voragine (two sermons on pp. 288-290, 311-315). On the other hand, the saints that are specific to the collection of Peregrinus, prior provincial of Poland, such as Adalbert, Wenceslas, or Hedwig, have been omitted. The copy has been made with care and is decorated systematically with pen-flourished initials. Contemporary annotations summarize the content of certain sermons, occasionally in schematic form. The ex libris (p. 351) indicates that before entering the Abbey Library, at the latest under the abbacy of Diethelm Blarer (whose stamp, dated to between 1553 and 1564, appears on p. 347), this manuscript belonged to Angela Varnbüler (1441-1509), prioress of the Dominican convent of Saint Catherine in Saint Gall (Mengis 2013, n° 52).
