SALAMAN1.CAT 9PP:39K BOOKS AND LIBRARIES IN SALAMANCA (1240-1300) John Dagenais Richard S. Gardner William D. McHugh Northwestern University The following is a pilot piece for an ongoing project en- titled "Books and Libraries in the Crown of Castille and Navarra (711-1550)." Though this working title suggests some anachron- isms, it seems a bit more convenient than alternative titles such as "Books and Libraries West of Aragn and East of Portugal (711- 1550)." The jumping off point for this project is Charles Faulhaber's _Libros y bibliotecas en la Espa\~na medieval_ (London: Grant & Cutler, 1987). Faulhaber's book provides a bibliography of sources for information on books in medieval Spain. In this project we seek to identify books whose existence in Christian Spain in the period in question can be documented through wills, donations, inventories, and other sources, using, in most cases, the editions cited in Faulhaber's bibliography. In the case of extensive inventories, many of them badly edited in previous published editions, it is our intention to re-edit from original documents wherever possible. Three of the documents in the present selection are newly edited from microfilm here. We will also check originals in the case of questionable or potentially ambiguous items. And we are always on the lookout for new document sources. This is part of the reason we have wanted to publish this preliminary list on ESPORA- L. Our hope is that list memebers will be able to point us to new documents. We have used DataPerfect software in setting up our full database and in generating this text (along with WordPerfect 4.2). The final printed version will include numerous indices: place-date; date-place; author; title; book descriptor terminology; purpose of gifts; professions of owners, etc. We hope, eventually, to be able to make the entire database available in machine-readable form and to allow users to generate charts and graphs for place/date distributions of individual or multiple items of their own choosing. NORMS AND CONVENTIONS OF THE CATALOGUE We have had to make several arbitrary decisions in assigning numbers to the items in the inventory. In all cases we have numbered as a separate _item_ whenever the word "item" occurs, even when several works follow. These works are each given an individual letter: 104a. In cases in which several works are listed together without the "item" identifier, we have given a single item number to works which seemed to be grouped together by the language of the inventory and then given individual letters to each work. There are numerous cases in which it is by no means obvious where such divisions should be made. But we have wished to preserve the structure of the original inventory (and, inevitably, along with it, its insoluable ambiguities) as much as possible. In identifying Biblical books and commentaries we have fol- lowed these procedures: when an entry uses a term such as "su- per" followed by a book of the Bible, we have identified this as a "commentary" in the Categories and Notes field. It should be understood that a Biblical text was probably included in some form in this commentary. When no word such as "super" or "expo- sicion" occurs, we identify the item with the Biblical book it- self. This does not rule out the possibility that the Biblical book bore glosses. A unique identifying number is assigned to each document. The basic format is: |3-letter place abbreviation| |year, if known| |whether the date is a specified date or a range of possible dates {D or R}| |the month and the day, for fixed dates; the ending year for a range| |alphabetic field reserved for duplicate dates|. In the final numeric field, 00 means month or day is unkown. Thus "SAL1240R1240" means "Salamanca, sometime during the year 1240." "SAL1264D0321" means "Salamanca, March 21, 1264." In this ASCII version, manuscript abbreviations in the newly edited texts are surrounded by underline characters. In the printed verion, document numbers and all direct quotations from the documents themselves appear in bold face. I have not attempted to indicate that here. I believe that our method for indicating accent marks is fairly straightforward. Simply as a convenient way of standardizing our main entries, we have used LC versions of author's names. This occasionally leads to some surprising forms, e.g., Azzo. |?| represents general doubts among scholars concerning dates, identifications, attributions. |??| signifies the present editors' doubts concerning identificatinos or transcriptions. We would be most grateful for help and suggestions of any kind: format, readability, scope. We would be especially grate- ful for corrections to the information listed here as well as for help in identifying items which we have not been able to indenti- fy. Legal and liturgical books have proved especially problemat- ic. This is where we need the most help at present. We would also appreciate references to published sources of documents which may have appeared since Faulhaber's bibliography, as well as to document sources which may have been overlooked so far. I wish to thank Charles Faulhaber for his many helpful suggestions at the time of this project's inception. I would also like to thank James A. Brundage for his gracious help with identifying problematic legal texts. The errors which remain are our own. John Dagenais Dept. of Hispanic Studies 1859 Sheridan Rd.

The text by Bartolom\'e de Brescia (d. 1258) |?|, Casus decretorum (bef. 1258) |?|, is also a possibility. It would have had to travel to Salamanca in six years; certainly not out of the question. But Alfonsus Petrus is a well- established and probably elderly man, and it seems more likely that his collection would have included less recent texts.
