Notes:
Housed in a modern, mat frame (410 x 510), visible on one side only., Twelfth-century bifolium fragment of Pope Gregory I's (c. 540-604) Homilies on the Gospels. The Homilies were among the most widely read and venerated texts of the Middle Ages. Delivered to the people of Rome during 590 and 591, soon after Gregory's election to the papacy, these sermons on the gospel readings for Sundays and feast days represent his only surviving public liturgical preaching. The Homilies were copied many times during the Middle Ages and survive in more than 400 manuscripts. Portions of them were also taken into the liturgy as readings in the Breviary., Protogothic (praegothica) script, probably continental, and Script indicates that it was likely produced in the twelfth century, possibly on the continent. Purchased by Special Collections, Waldo Library from Mackus Company, Fairlawn, Ohio on July 11, 2005.
