Once more the manuscripts of Stein monastery and the copyists of the Erasmiana manuscripts

Once more the manuscripts of Stein monastery and the copyists of the Erasmiana manuscripts JAN WILLEM KLEIN Once more the manuscripts of Stein monastery and the copyists of the Erasmiana manuscripts In a contribution to this journal in 1988 I dealt with the two Erasmiana manuscripts at Gouda (Gouda, Streekarchief Hollands Midden [Regional Archives of Central Holland] (henceforth SAHM), Librije coll. 1323 and 1324.' MS 1323 was written by two copyists at two quite different times. One copyist (called A) wrote the first 60 leaves around 1590; the other copyist (B) wrote the remaining 121 leaves in about 1590. MS 1324 has entirely been written bij copyist A in about i524. The hitherto hypothetical localisation of both manuscripts could be deter- mined with the help of a diurnale preserved in the Royal Library, The Hague (MS 71 J 67). This manuscript contains some additions in hand A. Since the diurnale is explicitly localised we now know that copyist A lived and worked in the monastery of Stein.2 Because of the dating, the identification of the writer as a monk of Stein and a slight similarity in the handwriting I cautiously suggested that copyist A might be identifiable as Erasmus's friend Servatius Rogerius.3 This was how matters stood in 1988.

Abstract

JAN WILLEM KLEIN Once more the manuscripts of Stein monastery and the copyists of the Erasmiana manuscripts In a contribution to this journal in 1988 I dealt with the two Erasmiana manuscripts at Gouda (Gouda, Streekarchief Hollands Midden [Regional Archives of Central Holland] (henceforth SAHM), Librije coll. 1323 and 1324.' MS 1323 was written by two copyists at two quite different times. One copyist (called A) wrote the first 60 leaves around 1590; the other copyist (B) wrote the remaining 121 leaves in about 1590. MS 1324 has entirely been written bij copyist A in about i524. The hitherto hypothetical localisation of both manuscripts could be deter- mined with the help of a diurnale preserved in the Royal Library, The Hague (MS 71 J 67). This manuscript contains some additions in hand A. Since the diurnale is explicitly localised we now know that copyist A lived and worked in the monastery of Stein.2 Because of the dating, the identification of the writer as a monk of Stein and a slight similarity in the handwriting I cautiously suggested that copyist A might be identifiable as Erasmus's friend Servatius Rogerius.3 This was how matters stood in 1988.
