Description
Although the manuscript is a typical instance of "compilatio" and unification (e.g., punctuation of ParsT), the virtues portrayed to illustrate ParsT do not belong to a typical iconographic program. After identifying the three virtues with two saints (Charite and Abstinence with Elizabeth, Chastete with Margaret), Bourgne re-evaluates the possible provenance of the Chaucerian collection, arguing in favour of a tie with Jacqueline de Hainaut.
