Miscellanies may easily make up the single largest group of medieval manuscripts. It was especially in the Late Middle Ages that the number of such multitextual manuscripts, often compiled by lay and religious individuals for personal or communal use, grew substantially. In spite of their relevance for the reconstruction of medieval culture, such manuscripts have not until recently garnered much scholarly interest. The present volume pinpoints the societal and cultural importance of fourteenth- and fifteenth-century miscellanies as well as their role in the understanding of textual creation, transformation and complexity, in both late medieval and early modern societies. The contributions scrutinise, on the one side, text corpora and textual traditions that had a seminal impact on late medieval European culture: the texts of Geoffrey Chaucer and Reginald Pecock, the manuscripts of Dante’s Commedia, late medieval Italian and Latin poetic anthologies, but also miscellanies from the Council of Basel and multitextual manuscripts containing anti-Hussite texts. On the other side, the volume takes into account individual scribes/compilers and collections: from remarkable cases such as Pico della Mirandola and Leonardo da Vinci, to personal collections made up by lesser-known but not less significant compilers and users. Under a strong pan-European umbrella, the volume embarks on specific problems, among which authorship, non-autonomy, composition, reception and use, along with more general issues such as multilingualism or the relationship between image and text. Though ubiquitous and complex, miscellanies blend the diverse cultural, economic and social tendencies of their prosumers, thus proving to be tokens of the appropriation of medieval knowledge and providing snapshots of a dynamic textual culture.

The production, transmission, and reception of texts from England and beyond during the late medieval and early renaissance periods are the focus of this volume. Chapters consider the archives and the material contexts in which texts were produced, read, and re-read; the history of specific manuscripts and early printed books; and some of the continuities and changes in literary and book production, dissemination, and reception in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Responding to Professor Julia Boffey's pioneering work on medieval and early Tudor material and literary culture, they cover a range of genres - from practical texts written in Latin to works of Middle English poetry and prose, both secular and religious - and examine an assortment of different reading contexts: lay, devotional, local, regional, and national. -- Back cover.

"In the panoramic sweep of The History of Great Britain by the Edinburgh minister, Robert Henry (1718-1790), the fifteenth century was an unlovely low-point, an age with a total want of taste. He was not unaware that this was also the time of 'the first restorers of useful and polite learning in the western world' but they were in a distant land: 'that new and better taste in the study of letters, which had so long prevailed in Italy, was little known or regarded in Britain till the beginning of the sixteenth century'. These tardy apish peoples had not yet roused themselves even to base imitation. Robert Henry was admired by David Hume but so abused by some reviewers that his fate can even now make an author shudder for fear of the reception their offerings might suffer. In those diatribes, however, no issue was taken with Henry's description of fifteenth-century culture. Moreover, whatever its perceived faults, Henry's monumental work proved influential. True, he is rarely cited now but some of the assumptions in the passages just quoted still popularly pertain. None might speak in terms of darkness or, indeed, of taste; hyperbole about 'an illiterate age' is no longer accepted style, and all would refer to what was happening in Italy as Renaissance humanism (two words invented since Henry's day). Despite those differences, few would query his chronology of British engagement with humanism -- but we should. As is made clear in Chapter I, since at least the 1940s, scholars have been unearthing and interpreting examples of fifteenth-century interest in the activities of the Italian humanists. This monograph is indebted to that work and builds on it"--

Il est rare de trouver pour ces années 1400-1500 des bibliothèques aussi riches. Leur caractère majoritairement inédit ajoute encore à l'intérêt et contribue à la connaissance de l'humanisme. Leurs propriétaires respectifs sortent également de l'ordinaire. L'étude de ces manuscrits et de cette bibliothèque révèle, entre autres, l'influence de la famille Jouffroy dans l'introduction de l'imprimerie à Albi dès 1474, la richesse des échanges intellectuels dans l'Europe de la fin du Moyen Âge, la splendeur de l'art florentin de l'enluminure ou encore la précocité de l'introduction de l'art italien de la Renaissance en France.
