An updated list of surviving manuscripts of the Speculum Maius
Hans Voorbij

Biblioteca historica medii aevi
Speculum Historiale
In 1862, August Potthast published in his monumental a list of
1
Speculum Naturale Speculum Doctrinale Speculum Historiale
surviving manuscripts of the of Vincent of Beauvais . Since that date, a steadily
Speculum Morale
growing number of manuscripts of the , ,
and the apocryphal has been identified, resulting in the publication of several lists of
manuscripts. Some lists, like the one by Potthast, present the manuscripts in alphabetical order, using
2

as keys the names of the places and libraries where the manuscripts are kept ; others apply a

chronological order . In their Ph.D.’s on the genesis of the and the
specula
, Hans Voorbij and Eva Albrecht both listed the manuscripts following the text versions of
4
these two that they had identified .
Apart from the discovery of several additional manuscripts, new codicological information has
speculum
become available in the past two decades that necessitates an update of the published lists of
surviving manuscripts. Systematic stylistic analysis of the decoration and illumination of
manuscripts originating from France and the Low Countries led to a revision of the production dates
