Illuminating faith : the Bute Book of Hours

"The Bute Book of Hours, an English manuscript dating to c. 1500 in The Berger Collection at the Denver Art Museum, has received cursory attention from scholars in the past. This paper is the first to conduct a comprehensive examination of the object, evaluating its style, iconography, content, religious significance, and patronage. Careful study has revealed that the Bute Book is greatly indebted to early engravings for its imagery, perhaps more than any other known manuscript. The suffrages to saints were selected based on their powers against the plague, Tudor religious preferences, and regional significance. Special attention has been given to more unusual insertions such as Sts. Armel and Ninian, and Henry VI. The Bute Book of Hours was created for a wealthy Englishman, most likely with Yorkshire connections, and it illustrates the tenor of a nation undergoing rapid political, social and religious changes"

"Written by an anonymous Celestine monk in the 1470s at Notre Dame D'Ambert near Orleans ... an interesting example of devotional literature in the vernacular written by the Celestines for women. The complicated story behind this text (which survives in only two manuscripts), however, is even more interesting, since its source is the Miroir des simples âmes (Mirror of Simple Souls) by the mystical writer, Marguerite Porete, who was burnt at the stake as a relapsed heretic in Paris in 1310"--Textmanuscripts.com
