Online thx to #PolonskyGerman https://t.co/aqB9MDROZY - there are more copies of the same world chronicle in Nuremberg where the volume came from. Cf. the forthcoming post by Linus Ubl from the #BloggingMss competition w/ @anjdunning @AinonenT
Amazing to see the Lederschnitt-Einband of the Platterberger chronicle in high res. There is an article by Linus Ubl on the link to contemporary copperplates in OGS 46 (2017) https://t.co/RhoZr6jXkF
Crowdsourcing for codicology answers: This is an offset from a pastedown on the front board of @UKLibraries Latin VII. (flipped it around for legibility) Any thoughts on where it comes from? #bloggingMSS #medievaltwitter
Paleography tricks: Unfortunately, this does not say "Pant michi domine," but "Parce michi domine," a quite different request. The scribe of Latin VI (at the @UKLibraries) has been a fan of tricky Rs. This R occurs on fol. 94r. #bloggingMSS
Really pleased to see one after the other the #BloggingMss posts come to digital life - "der Trost der Bäume" (w/ apologies to @writingbrecht for using the quote for medieval trees of virtues) is now needed more than ever!
Disappointing houseplants and crumbling towers:
@M_L_Angerer is trying to make sense of handwritten diagrammes on a 15thC paper MS & finds that the Tower of Wisdom is faulty.
Another excellent crop from #PolonskyGerman #BloggingMSS challenge

Worried more about storms than plagues? @UKLibraries MS Latin V has still got you covered! An early owner has written in the very back (fol. 116v) of their Book of Hours a prayer against thunder and storms. You're welcome. #BloggingMSS #medievaltwitter
So relevant, it hurts. @UKLibraries Latin MS IV fol. 142v, an early owner has written in an "Oratio contra pestem" (prayer against plague) into the back of their tiny, tiny (80 x 58mm) Book of Hours. #bloggingMSS #medievaltwitter
What's for dinner: giraffe or lynx?
Inquiring minds want to know what was available at the dinner table in the minds of 10thC German translators/glossators

Congrats to @LuiseMorawetz, Winner of #PolonskyGerman #bloggingMSS challenge
"Me dude": from the Ancrene Riwle, a 13th c. monastic rule for women ... Unfortunately, not as in "Me dude, calm down, stop being wrathful like the pelican". #medievaltwitter #bloggingMSS (found in BL, Cotton Cleopatra C. vi on folio 49v)
The importance of being (im)perfect
#BloggingMSS Popular Choice Award Winner @DarkArchives
Movies tend to show the most extraordinary models of medieval MSS. @NDomeisen looked at a couple of less dolled up & far more common examples
