It's #FragmentFriday! Today we have a leaf from a late 14th or early 15th century French Book of Hours. The text comes from verses 12-22 of Psalm 101, one of the Seven Penitential Psalms. This leaf is held at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio. #medievalsky #medievalmss

This week’s #ManuscriptMonday features a leaf from an Italian antiphonal, likely produced during the second half of the fifteenth century and bearing antiphons and responsory verse. This leaf is a palimpsest, containing earlier music and text perpendicular to existing text. #medievalsky #medievalmss

I am SO PROUD of my Simmons Library & Information Science students! They've been studying a Book of Hours dismembered by Otto Ege in the 1940s & today they put it back together in @fragmentarium.bsky.social! Reversing the scourge of biblioclasm, one leaf at a time! #fragmentology #medievalsky

Walahfrid's Advent calendar, door 10. Lovage (Levisticum officinale) Although its juice and smell Are thought to injure the eyes and bring the shadows of blindness, Yet its tiny seeds are often added to cunningly blended Cures, winning fame from praise that is due to others. #histmed #medievalsky
