EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautifully illuminated page from the Manuscript of Valerius Maximus, copied by Arnau de Collis in 1408 and translated by Father Antoni Canals, transports us back to ancient times. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the rich history and literature contained within its pages. Valerius Maximus was a renowned Roman historian who compiled a collection of memorable deeds and sayings from various historical figures. This manuscript is a testament to the importance placed on preserving knowledge during the Renaissance period. Copied with great precision by Arnau de Collis, this page showcases his skill as a scribe. Each letter is meticulously formed, creating an aesthetically pleasing composition that enhances the overall visual appeal of the manuscript. Father Antoni Canals' translation adds another layer of significance to this work. By making it accessible in Catalan, he ensured that future generations could appreciate Valerius Maximus' wisdom and insights into human nature. Housed within the Historical Archive of Barcelona, this manuscript holds immense value for scholars and historians alike. Its presence serves as a reminder of our collective past and encourages us to delve deeper into our shared cultural heritage. Thanks to Santiago Ortega's photographical expertise, we can now admire this remarkable piece even if we cannot physically visit Barcelona or access the original manuscript ourselves. It is through such images that we are able to connect with history in new ways - bridging time gaps and fostering appreciation for centuries-old works like these.
