Index of manuscripts in Middle English prose contained in Scandinavian libraries
This volume examines libraries in Scandinavia containing Middle English prose texts: the Royal Library of Copenhagen, Denmark, the Royal Library of Stockholm, the University Library of Uppsala, Sweden, and the Sch yen Collection in Oslo, Norway. An extensive collection of alchemical writings in Copenhagen is listed for the first time. Medical texts are well represented, including Lanfrank's surgery and a Canutus treatise in Copenhagen, and the famous medical miscellanies in Stockholm. Uppsala has a number of religious works. The SchØyen Collection is a private MS collection containing items of Middle English prose.
