Two very different collections are surveyed in this volume. The manuscripts of Pembroke College, Cambridge are typical of a medieval foundation. Its core of books is a working library of that period, representing the interests and needs of its Fellows, very often given or bequeathed by them to the College. The collection was substantially enlarged in 1599 through the gift by William Smart of Ipswich of a large number of manuscripts which until the Reformation had belonged to the Abbey of Bury St Edmunds. By contrast the emphasis of the Fitzwilliam Museum collection is to a great extent art historical. At its heart are the manuscripts bequeathed by Lord Fitzwilliam in 1816.These were supplemented throughout the 19th century by a series of gifts and bequests, culminating in 1904 in the largest bequest to date, from Frank McClean, of some 203 manuscripts. In spite of the different character of the two collections, both contain a range of Middle English prose items, among them Chaucer's "Boece", a complete Wycliffite sermon cycle and several Paston letters (all from Pembroke), the Anlaby Cartulary, the 'Canutus' pestilence tract, the "Brut", Lydgate's "Serpent of Division" and Nicholas Love's "Mirror of the Blessed Life of Jesus Christ" (from the Fitzwilliam). Kari Anne Rand is Professor of Older English Literature at the University of Oslo.
