This is the second blog post about this manuscript asking for help from the medieval and/or history of medicine and/or history of science communities. The table below is found on f. 12r of the second volume of 10a 131. I don’t believe they are alchemical symbols, but perhaps abbreviations for chemicals.
As an archivist with some training in medieval studies, Latin, and manuscript studies, I often find these #MedievalMonday posts to be much more time-consuming than might be expected because I become engrossed in the research. 10a 131, however, was exceedingly difficult, as I have no knowledge of the Venetian dialect nor much deep knowledge of medieval medicine. I am always learning on the job, which is exciting. Because so many items in our collection need care, I can’t spend hours deciphering aspects of a single manuscript (although I would love to do). Therefore, please, again, feel free to contact the Library at library@collegeofphysicians.org if you have any insider information about the contents of 10a 131, or would like to schedule an appointment to come in and study it – or anything else in the collection!
