or ricus?] viii’.</h3> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Digitally annotated composite ARCHiOx recording of the dry-point addition to New College Library, Oxford, MS 287, f. 2v [detail]</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h5><strong>New College Library and Archives, Oxford</strong></h5> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-2 col-md-offset-2 col-sm-3 col-sm-offset-1"> <div class="field field--name-field-attachment field--type-file field--label-hidden field--items"> <div class="field--item"><span class="file file--mime-application-pdf file--application-pdf icon-before"><span class="file-icon"><span class="icon glyphicon glyphicon-file text-primary" aria-hidden="true"></span></span><span class="file-link"><a href="/sites/default/files/2024-07/21NCN4%20%282024%29%20Hodgkinson%20on%20Doodles%20and%20Dry%20Point.pdf" type="application/pdf; length=982503" title="Open file in new window" target="_blank" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="bottom">21NCN4 (2024) Hodgkinson on Doodles and Dry Point.pdf</a></span><span class="file-size">959.48 KB</span></span></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> </div> </div> </div> </div> Mon, 29 Jul 2024 17:51:48 +0000 Christopher 3148 at Ï㽶ֱ²¥ MS 287 and its Text /node/2484 <div class="top-wrapper"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field--item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/styles/large_navigation/public/2022-07/New%20College%20Library%2C%20Oxford%2C%20MS%20287%2C%20f.%202v.jpg.webp?itok=PYXkE5th" width="655" height="435" alt="New College Library, Oxford, MS 287, f. 2v" class="img-responsive"> </div> <div class="field field--name-node-title field--type-ds field--label-hidden field--item"><h2> Ï㽶ֱ²¥ MS 287 and its Text </h2> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-author field--type-string field--label-hidden field--item">Jemima Bennett</div> <div class="field field--name-field-issue field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Issue number</div> <div class="field--item">(2022): 17</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-notes-category field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Notes category</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/372" hreflang="en">MS 287</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/52" hreflang="en">Library Manuscripts</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/373" hreflang="en">Bernard André</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/193" hreflang="en">King Henry VIII</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="middle-wrapper"> <div class="inner-middle-wrapper"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-8"> <div class="field field--name-field-summary field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field--item"><h3>MS 287 was written as a gift for King Henry VIII—from his court poet Bernard André—for New Year’s Day 1515, the main gift-giving occasion in Henry’s court at which the king regularly received books.</h3> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>New College Library, Oxford, MS 287, f. 2v</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h5><strong>New College Library and Archives, Oxford</strong></h5> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-2 col-md-offset-2 col-sm-3 col-sm-offset-1"> <div class="field field--name-field-attachment field--type-file field--label-hidden field--items"> <div class="field--item"><span class="file file--mime-application-pdf file--application-pdf icon-before"><span class="file-icon"><span class="icon glyphicon glyphicon-file text-primary" aria-hidden="true"></span></span><span class="file-link"><a href="/sites/default/files/2022-07/17NCN4%20%282022%29%20Bennett%20on%20MS%20287.pdf" type="application/pdf; length=332931" title="Open file in new window" target="_blank" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="bottom">17NCN4 (2022) Bennett on MS 287.pdf</a></span><span class="file-size">325.13 KB</span></span></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> </div> </div> </div> </div> Thu, 28 Jul 2022 18:33:06 +0000 Christopher 2484 at
