Introduction

The manuscript Ii.3.24, University Library Cambridge, was written on parchment and is dated to the second half of the 12th century. Its place of origin is England. The main text consists of the Magna glossatura (ff. 1r-263v), a commentary on the biblical Psalms written by Peter Lombard in the 12th century.

The manusrcipt also contains glosses. A gloss is usually a short interlinear or marginal note, which can contain translation, interpretation of the text or simply reader’s comments. Gloss was frequently used by medieval scribes and therefore is an important part of the written culture in the Middle Ages.
