Abstract

This manuscript is a short treatise on the virtues, on paper, comprising two gatherings, perhaps once part of a large volume. The text was written closely, rapidly, and roughly; unruled and with a varying number of lines; and with numerous abbreviations, crossings out, and marginal insertions and corrections. Trimming has resulted in some losses to marginal notes.

Abstract

This is an early sixteenth-century Italian manuscript by Domizio Calderino, which includes two texts: a treatise on the gods and a commentary on Virgil's Aeneid. The manuscript is made of five or six different paper stocks, one of which is of a smaller size. The initials of the first words in each text division are in large majuscules outside the text block.
