Description
  • Fragments from a heavily glossed, fifteenth-century treatise written on paper used as front and back pastedowns. The text on these pastedowns remains unidentified, but the lines on the back pastedown share similarities with the section of text from De potentiis animae transcribed by Lottin from three manuscripts in his 1934 article (pp. 205-6): Bruxelles, Bibl. roy. MS 12014-41 (fols. 159vb-160ra), Bruges, Bibl. comm. MS 513 (fol. 323r), and Paris, Bibl. Nat. MS lat. 6552 (fol. 28va.). The author of this work is not known, although Lottin suggests he was a member of the Dominican order likely active during the mid-thirteenth century (p. 205).

Provenance
  • That volume is signed on the title page by Johann Albert Fabricius (1668-1736) in 1706. Fabricius was a German classical scholar and prominent bibliographer. He was a professor of ethics and rhetoric in Hamburg from 1699 until his death, and he also served as the librarian to Johann Friedrich Mayer (1650-1712), a pominent Lutheran theologian in Wittenberg and Hamburg. Fabricius is credited with having written over 100 works, including the Bibliotheca Graeca and the Bibliotheca Latina. Presented to St. Xavier College by N. R. Thomas Roche Butler (Covington, KY) on Dec. 27th, 1868, and recorded on the title page in an inscription. An inscription on the verso of the title page in a late fifteenth- or early sixteenth-century hand was added by Margarete Kettelrandes, a nun who states that she received the book from her father.
