Basel, Universitätsbibliothek, F III 34 : Composite manuscript (natural science and theology) Basel | Universitätsbibliothek | F III 34 : Composite manuscript (natural science and theology)
This manuscript, written in a 13th century textura, was the property of the cleric and historian Dietrich von Niem (1340-1418), who provided it with numerous marginal notes. The volume, which was passed on to the Carthusian Monastery of Basel, contains, among others, Seneca’s Naturales quaestiones, the discussion Cur deus homo? by Anselm of Canterbury, and the astrological work De radiis stellarum by the Arab philosopher and scientist Alkindi. It also contains the article De probatione virginitatis beatae Mariae from the so-called Suda, a Byzantine encyclopedia widely used in the Latin translation by Roberto Grosseteste.
