[Theological miscellany].

Abstract:
Collection of theological works from the 13th to 15th centuries, including several with unidentifiable authors: notably, a commentary on the De fide catholica, the new profession of faith from the Fourth Lateran Council; a work on virtues and vices; a collection of sermons or commentary based on the Gospels, and a Passion narrative. Also commentary on Peter Lombard's Sententiae, concerning God, evil, creation, sin, grace, incarnation, the Ten Commandments, and sacraments (among many other topics); three sermons by Jordan von Quedlinburg, two of which are identified by R. Lievens as numbers 317 and 260; a portion of a large collection of sermons by Jacobus de Voragine; excerpts from Robert Holkot's works on the book of Wisdom; a sermon given by Juan de Segovia at the Council of Basel; and excerpts on church law from Raymond of Peñafort. The pastedowns on the upper and lower covers are from mid-13th-century Aristotelian texts on the De animalibus.
