Type de matériel :
6
At the beginning of the thirteenth century, an adaptation in figurae of the De missarum mysteriis of cardinal Lothar, who became Pope Innocent III, was written in Paris. Between the thirteenth and the fifteenth century, eleven manuscripts held this original work, which presents forty-two diagrams classifying characteristics of mass, according to the systematic medieval mind. It included afterward a heuristic text explaining the ambiguities of certain diagrams. This article analyzes and publishes this graphic work and its explanatory text.
