History
The Grey Friars in Oxford
Little, A. G. (Andrew George)
Franciscans -- Great Britain
Oxford:--Bodl. Rawlinson C. 534, f. 106 (sec. xiii): cf. Bodl. 2501,
‘forte Jo. Wallensis.’--Lincoln Coll. 67, f. 143 (xiv).
Paris:--Bibl. Mazarine 569, f. 139 b (xiv).
Bruges 239 (Haenel p. 756).--Falaise 38, p. 325 (xiv.
ineuntis).--Toulouse 340 (xiv).
Extracts printed by Charma, ‘Notice sur un MS ... de Falaise,’ 1851.
_Manipulus Florum_, begun by John Wallensis, finished by Thomas
Hibernicus, to whom it is usually ascribed; excerpts from the fathers, in
alphabetical order.
_Inc. prol._ ‘Abite in agro, &c. Paupercula non habet messem.’
_Inc. opus._ ‘Abstinentia. Bonum est in cibo.’
MSS. Oxford:--Merton Coll. 129 (sec. xiv).--Lincoln Coll. 98 (xiv).
Cambridge:--Caius Coll. 402 (A. D. 1306).
Paris:--Bibl. Mazarine 1032, &c.
Troyes, 1785 (finitus A. D. 1306).--Basel, B iv. 9 (written A. D.
1324).
Printed at Piacenza 1483, Venice 1493, &c.
A similar work, ascribed in the same hand as the text to Friar John
Walensis, is contained in MS. Charleville 136 (sec. xiv); _inc._
‘Accidia. Nota accidiosus est.’
_De origine progressu et fine Mahumeti et quadruplici reprobatione
prophetiae ejus_, cap. xv.
_Inc._ ‘Ad ostendendum quod Mahumetes.’
Printed at Argentina 1550. The editor, G. Fabricius says: ‘hunc
Galensis libellum in dissipatis Bibliothecis inventum collegi.’ No
MSS. of the work have been discovered, and its authenticity seems very
doubtful. It is not mentioned by the earlier bibliographers, such as
Philip de Bergamo and Tritheim. Except in the number of chapters, it
appears to differ entirely from the _Tract. contra falsitates legis
Machometi_ of Peter de Pennis: Quétif-Echard I 569; MS. Chapitre de
Bayeux 42.
_Sermones de tempore et de sanctis._
MSS. Bodl.: 1956 = *NE*. B. i. 14, now Bodley 50; referred to by
Tanner.
Munich:--Bibl. Reg. 26941 (sec. xiv. ineuntis) contains a sermon
preached at Paris by John Wallensis.
Charleville 113 § 3 (sec. xiv and xiii), _Sermones de tempore_: _inc._
‘Dominica prima de adventu’: these are anonymous but follow some works
by J. Wallensis in the MS.
_Postilla super Johannem._
MSS. Vienna:--Bibl. Palat. 1533 (sec. xiv).
Florence:--Laurentiana, _ex bibl. S. Crucis_, Plut. xxvii. Dext. Cod.
iii. ‘Tabula super Postillam Fratris Joannis de Vallensis (_sic_)
super Joannem.’ The work itself is missing.
This appears to be identical with the _Postilla in Evangelium
Joannis_, printed among Bonaventura’s works. It is doubtful whether
the commentary should be ascribed to either of these writers. (See
Hist. Litt. xxv. 193-4.)
_Collationes in Johannem._ Ascribed also to Bonaventura, and printed among
his works (edit. 1589, tom. ii): probably by the same author as the
preceding _Postilla_.
