Abstract
- IE TCD MS 602, William of Malmesbury, Gesta pontificum Anglorum etc., is a composite manuscript consisting of two parts that were produced separately in England, with both parts written in the early 13th century. The first part (folios 1-63) contains the Gesta pontificum Anglorum of William of Malmesbury. The second part (64-149) contains a collection of classical works and medieval exempla. The volume was possibly compiled by the 15th century, as indicated by the presence of medieval foliation in both parts in the hand of Clement of Canterbury (fl. 1463-1495), librarian of St Augustine's Abbey. Part I is listed as item BA1.919, Cronica de W Malmesbur' de gestis pontific[i]um Anglie in quaterno cum B. Secundo folio. it regis. D 9 Ga 3o, on the 15th-century library catalogue of St Augustine's Abbey (TCD MS 360; B.C.
