It is a compilation of curiosities, derived from earlier writers such as Pliny the Elder, covering the ancient world, historical, social, religious and natural history. This manuscript was owned in the Middle Ages by Reading Abbey in Berkshire, a large number of whose manuscripts survive in the British Library and elsewhere. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
