PUBLISHER’S PREFACE
Catalogue published In early 2003 Moran Micropublications published Edith Brayer’s previously unavailable typewritten catalogue of the Frenchlanguage medieval manuscripts in the Koninklijke Bibliotheek (KB) and MeermannoWestreenianum Museum in The Hague on 18 microfiches (Moran order number MMP102) with an extensive printed guide written by Anne S. Korteweg, curator of manuscripts at the KB. Now the KB’s complete collection of 118 manuscripts and four collections of fragments has been made available for research by Moran (order number MMP113) in two microform editions, one on 35 mm roll film and the other on microfiche.
The microfilms The microfilms published here were made for Moran Micropublications by a professional micrographics laboratory in the Netherlands using 35 mm input films supplied by the Koninklijke Bibliotheek. The collection is organized by the shelfmark assigned to each manuscript by the library, the first, for example, being manuscript 66 B 13, in which the first number indicates the bookcase in which it is kept, the letter indicates the shelf within the case and the last number is the serial number on the shelf. For convenience sake the publishers have given consecutive numbers to each manuscript running from MMP113/1 to MMP113/122. There are 58 reels of film numbered 1/58 to 58/58. The labels on the microfilm boxes give the shelf marks and MMP numbers of the manuscripts contained on the reel.
The present guide This guide has been adapted by the publishers from that produced by Anne Korteweg for micropublication of the Brayer catalogue cited above. It contains her introduction to the history of the collection and the vicissitudes of its cataloguing through the years. There follows a complete inventory of the collection giving a description of each manuscript including information on its author, date, place of origin, material used, binding, decoration and provenance with bibliographical references to the relevant literature. The extensive bibliography closes the guide, which is also available in electronic format on our website.
5 6 INTRODUCTION: THE FRENCHLANGUAGE MANUSCRIPTS IN THE KONINKLIJKE BIBLIOTHEEK by Anne S. Korteweg
The Frenchlanguage manuscripts of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek form a small but interesting part of the institution's collection of medieval manuscripts. Most of them were acquired in the four decades following the founding of the library in 1798. The nucleus of the library, the book collection of the former stadholders, contained a large number of medieval manuscripts from the southern Netherlands and France that had been in the possession of the counts of Nassau, the ancestors of the present royal family. The new institution grew rapidly in its early days due to the strong support given by two kings, Louis Napoleon and William I, and a number of important collections originally built up in the southern Netherlands entered the library as a result of the union of the Netherlands and Belgium in one kingdom between 1816 and 1839.
The first decades of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek In the wake of the French armies that entered the Netherlands in 1795, commissioners carefully searched the library left behind by the last stadholder William V for items that might be of interest to the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris. They missed only two of the Frenchlanguage medieval manuscripts: a twovolume copy of Aristotle's Problemata in Evrard de Conty's translation and a prose version of the Vie des Pères. What remained of the stadholder's collection was transformed three years later into a National Library, which was mainly intended for the use of the members of the National Assembly and was consequently housed in the government precincts in the Binnenhof. Important collections were added to its holdings during the brief reign of Louis Napoleon (1806 1810), brother of the emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. In 1807 the king himself purchased the 22,000volume collection of the Leiden jurist and magistrate Joost Romswinckel, whose house on the Rapenburg had been partially destroyed by the explosion of a munitions barge outside its door. Dire financial straits forced him to offer his collection for sale to the king, who had it moved to the Koninklijke Bibliotheek after purchase. Romswinckel's interest in affairs of state is revealed for example by a volume of “Mirrors of princes” that contained some of the first French translations of Italian humanists such as Aurispa and Decembrio. Two years later the collection of the jurist and grand pensionary Jacob Visser of The Hague was acquired. He was an avid historian and, following the example of André Chevillier in France, compiled the first list of incunabula printed in the Netherlands. Despite his focus on things Dutch, there were among his medieval manuscripts a number in French, such as a volume of pious texts including the rare Heures de la Passion by Christine de Pisan.
After the battle of Waterloo (1815) the relations among the states of Europe altered once again and the oldest son of the last stadholder returned to the Netherlands to accede to the throne as king William I. In 1816 the French were forced to return part of the stadholder' s collections and the new king had the manuscripts placed in the Koninklijke Bibliotheek. Many of these books came from the collections of his ancestors, the counts of Nassau Engelbert II (14501504) and Hendrik III (14871538) at Breda Castle, and had passed in the following centuries to the princes of OrangeNassau, the stadholders at The Hague. The manuscripts covered the wide range of subjects typical of a medieval noble library. Special items were the copy of the Mutacion de Fortune, given by its author Christine de Pisan in 1404 to the duke Jean de Berry, a volume with Miracles de Nostre Dame by Gautier de Coinci, which the French king Charles IV had ordered from the Parisian libraire Thomas de Maubeuge in 1327, and a copy of the Chronique de la Bible, the text of which was commissioned by count William X of Auvergne (12291247) from the Jewish author Moses ben Abraham. In 1531 Hendrik III of Nassau had acquired an important part of the collection of the southern Netherlandish knight Philip of Cleves, lord of Ravenstein, which contained the dedicatory copy of the prose translation of the Roman de la Rose that Jean Molinet had made for Philip in 1500. Three splendid manuscripts had been owned by the grandfather of
7 Philip's wife, Louis de Luxembourg, the wellknown connétable who ended his days on the scaffold in Paris in 1475: a threevolume Histoire romaine by Livy, a Cité de Dieu by Saint Augustine and the first part of the Chroniques of Froissart, all of which originated in Paris around 1400.
In addition King William I donated several books of hours that had been acquired by his grandfather, stadholder William IV, and safeguarded by his father when he fled the country in 1795, in particular the hours commissioned by Catherine de Medici after the death of her husband, king Henry II of France. The king also deposited various other gifts and acquisitions in the library, such as a fourteenthcentury copy of the Bible Historiale Complétée by Guiard des Moulins, which had been presented to him by the booksellers of Groningen in 1814, and duke Philip the Good's own deluxe copy of the Vie de St. Hubert by Hubert le Prevost, which he had purchased in 1826. But the king's most important role was in the acquisition of some large collections in the southern Netherlands. The extensive collection of the eccentric nobleman Joseph Desiré Lupus, purchased in its entirety in 1819, was something of a cross between a religious museum and a cabinet of curiosities. First housed in the Musée Lupus in Brussels, the objects were dispersed among various museums after his death in 1822, with the medieval manuscripts going to the Koninklijke Bibliotheek in The Hague. This collection with no fewer than 150 medieval manuscripts brought unprecedented treasures into the library. In addition to numerous books of hours it contained a Glose des èchecs amoureux by Evrard de Conty and a Miroir de l’ame pécheresse, copied by the translator Jean Miélot.
The collection of the historian GeorgesJoseph Gérard (17341814) was of an entirely different nature. Gérard was for some time the secretary of the recently created Academy of Sciences, and served as director of the Burgundian Library in Brussels for many years. He was a keen archival researcher who, among other things, developed a plan for the Academy to publish a series of source books of important medieval texts which he baptised the Monumenta historiae Belgicae. He amassed for himself an extensive collection of literary manuscripts and historical documents, which he purchased at auctions or, more often, transcribed himself or had transcribed for him. After its acquisition in 1818 the entire collection was kept in the General State Archives (now National Archives) in The Hague, but in 1832 most of it was transferred to the Koninklijke Bibliotheek.
Among the historical papers were numerous medieval manuscripts. Besides Philip the Good' s book of hours and his copy of the Statutes of the Golden Fleece, these included a volume of poems by Alain Chartier and his followers, an Histoire des trois fils de rois and a small volume containing the Jardin amoureux by Pierre d'Ailly and the Complainte contre la mort by the “fou” Triboulet, who may have been the court jester of King René of Anjou.
The manuscript collection after 1840 Before the middle of the century these prosperous times came to an end. After the Belgian uprising of 1830 and subsequent secession of Belgium from the kingdom in 1839, royal patronage evaporated. Furthermore, the librarians of the time, Holtrop and Campbell, were devoted to the study of incunabula and early printed books. An improvement came only with the librarianship of Willem G.C. Byvanck, who ran the library for more than twentyfive years, from 1895 onward. Intending to give the library a greater role as a cultural centre, he conceived a plan to install a museum in several rooms where “the assembied treasure of precious manuscripts, letters and other documents of our cultural history” could be exhibited. To this end he spent years purchasing large numbers of medieval manuscripts, and in the process quantity at times got the upper hand on quality. In addition to Dutch prayer books and books of hours, he was able to acquire several French manuscripts, such as a Livre de trois vertus by Christine de Pisan from c. 1430 and a Généalogie de Madame Anne de la Tour, princesse de l'Ecosse, recently identified as a work of the rhetorician Jean Lemaire de Belges.
8 The policy initiated by Byvanck of concentrating on the acquisition of items relevant to Dutch cultural heritage was reinforced in the twentieth century. As a result, French manuscripts have only entered the library's collections sporadically. The manuscripts owned by the Royal Academy of Sciences in Amsterdam, which have been left on deposit since 1937, contain a Coutumes de Bretagne. Also received on permanent loan are two manuscripts of French translations of classical works, the Faits et dits mémorables by Valerius Maximus and Plutarch's Lives, translated and copied by Simon de Bourgouin, chamberlain to King Louis XII.
Cataloguing the manuscripts Due to various circumstances, in its twohundred year history the Koninklijke Bibliotheek has not succeeded in publishing a printed catalogue of its manuscript collection. Lack of personnel and even the complete absence of a specialised curator of manuscripts over long periods of time were the principal reasons. Since the beginning of the twentieth century the manuscripts have been accessible through a card catalogue and through printed catalogues devoted to specific parts of the collection. Since the introduction of electronic data processing in 1988, progress has been made toward producing a more uptodate catalogue of the entire manuscript collection.
The rapid growth of a library with a very limited staff no doubt explains why no cataloguing occurred during the tenure of its first librarian, the French exile Charles Sulpice Flament (1798 1835). Moreover, since the library moved several times during this period from the Binnenhof to the Mauritshuis, and then in 1820 to a stately building on the Lange Voorhout many of its collections remained in packing crates for years. The manuscripts were not shelved according to provenance, but arranged by subject. Although at the time this improved their accessibility to a certain extent, one of the results was that nowadays the provenance of a number of them can no longer be traced. This cataloguing situation did not change until in 1834 when the Minister of Education and Culture inquired whether there was a catalogue of the manuscripts and gave the order “to compile one, should it not exist”. With great haste Flament's successor Johan Willem Holtrop (18351869) put together a shorttitle catalogue of the 2,000 manuscripts held at the time. In this socalled “catalogus primitivus” the existing arrangement by subject is followed. Holtrop then proceeded to rearrange his descriptions according to a more refined scheme, which, however, did not get past the first section on “theology”, afterwards named “catalogus vetus”. This composite catalogue remained in use for the better part of the nineteenth century and was probably put at the disposal of Achille Jubinal, a French scholar looking for important manuscripts in the early 1840s. It was his 1846 publication that first focused attention in the Netherlands and abroad on the library's Frenchlanguage manuscript holdings.
An improved description of the manuscripts was undertaken after the appointment of the historian Jan Bolhuis van Zeeburg as the first curator of the department in 1877. He began a card catalogue of Latin descriptions and, at the same time, gave the manuscripts a new location on the shelves together with new shelfmarks, assigning a numbering nowadays called “olim”. At his untimely death in 1890 he was succeeded by a high civil servant of the ministry who needed to be given a new position. The latter did manage to complete the card file of the entire collection, but often enough his descriptions reveal his lack of expertise in the field. Under the librarianship of W.G.C. Byvanck (18951921) the manuscripts were renumbered and relocated for the third time, now using a system with a number indicating the bookcase, a letter indicating the shelf within the case and finally another number designating its serial number on the shelf. This system is still in use today. Not surprisingly, the constant renumbering of the manuscripts has produced a great amount of confusion in the scholarly literature concerning the correct shelfmarks right down to the present day. During Byvanck's tenure there were four curators of the department in succession, all of whom left their position after a few years to become university professors. They completed a subject card catalogue and an alphabetical card index and commenced work on several subject catalogues, the first of which finally appeared in 1922, treating 950 theological manuscripts. Since Byvanck's time scholarly descriptions of newly acquired manuscripts have
9 been printed in the library's annual report (Verslag van de bibliotheek). Although these reports have been difficult for foreign scholars to consult, the inc1usion of the descriptions in the card catalogue has greatly improved its quality.
Since the 1970s not only have the annual accessions of new manuscripts been described, but also a serious attempt has been made to improve the existing descriptions. A retrospective bibliography for each manuscript has been established, an essential step for producing better analyses and descriptions. At the moment some 4,500 references can be consulted on the library's website. Research has also been conducted on the provenance of the manuscripts, and for the first time a concordance has been established for the four different numbering systems used in the nineteenth century. With the introduction of the computer at the end of the 1980s, inventories by shelfmark have started to be compiled, two of which have been published so far (for bookcases 6672). The rapid growth of the Internet, however, has led to the library's recent decision to make new catalogues available only online. At the end of 2002 all existing manuscript descriptions had been entered into the computer and the database can be accessed through the library's website.

49 Inventory of the Frenchlanguage medieval manuscripts in the Koninklijke Bibliotheek
Decoration: Illumination by 2 different masters. First master: 1 fullpage miniature (f. 28v; 200x130 mm); decorated initials with border decoration in Southern Netherlandish style ('strewn' borders: ff. 1r, 29r, 94r); 4 illustrations in the margin (coats of arms). Second master: 3 fullpage miniatures (ff. 42r, 68r, 117v; 210/200x128/121 mm); decorated initial with border decoration (f. 118r) Provenance: made for Adolf of Cleves, Lord of Ravenstein (d. 1492; coat of arms with collar of the Golden Fleece); by descent to his son Philip of Cleves (d. 1528; signature); purchased in 1531 from his estate by Henri III, Count of Nassau (d. 1538); by descent to the Princes of OrangeNassau, the later Stadholders, at The Hague; carried off in 1795 to Paris by the French and restituted to the Koninklijke Bibliotheek in 1816 Commentary: the coat of arms is not that of Philip of Cleves, who had the same coat of arms as his father Adolph, but was never elected a knight of the Golden Fleece. As all decorated borders by the first master contain the coat of arms of Adolf of Cleves and those of the second master not, it can be assumed that the illumination of the manuscript was left unfinished at Adolf's death and was finished by the second master on behalf of Philips of Cleves
