- Description:

Forms part of the Kenneth Willis Clark Collection of Greek Manuscripts (David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library, Duke University)
Format: Manuscript gathering.
Titles from opening rubrics.
Layout: Written in 1 column of 25 lines; ruled consistently on the verso of the leaf using a mastara.
Script: Written in a strong round bouclé hand with letters vertical but slanting slightly in the direction of the writing; with clear and distinctive accents and breathing marks in a dark brown ink. There is a mixed usage of uncials and cursives. The hand has many characteristics of those found in Duke Gk. MS. 81.
Decoration: Red penwork of the initial letter and penwork ornamentation on fol. 1r. Ornamental marginal initials average one to the page. Red ink appears to have been used for the title and dates which appear in the upper margins.
Title cataloged from existing description.
fol. 1r-3v: Life of Alexius for March 17; fol. 4r-8v: Life of Sophronius by Ioannes Zonara for March 11; watermark of an anchor encircled and surmounted by a six-pointed star, and two letters ("P-B") and surmounted by a trefoil (similar to Briquet 9619 (the letters) and 523 (the anchor)). Bound out of order (correct order: fol. 4-8, 1-3).
Binding: Around a single signature, the pamphlet binding is of dark brown paste paper over light-weight binder's boards. Two blank endsheets, added by the binder, bear the mark "G. Fichtner Nachf." Also preceding the text is a sheet that appears to have been inserted at the time of the binding on which is pasted a square of graph paper with the handwritten title label in black ink: "Manuscrit Graec. /[double rule]/ XVI Siècle."
