@devilscustard A full bestiary? Now that would be something. It would have to include this manticore, though!

No, I don't have a podcast to promote. Or a book coming out. Or a documentary being screened. No exhibition opening to attend and I'm not choosing the name of a raven.

Here instead are some medieval manticores. The end.

Royal MS 12 C XIX, f. 29v
Royal MS 12 F XIII, f. 24v

A manticore wearing a hat.

Are you going to tell him it looks ridiculous?
No, I didn't think so.

Another mappa mundi, this time made in England in the 14th century.

And on the other side of the page is a map of the Mediterranean.

Royal MS 14 C IX, ff. 1v-2r, 2v

This is my *new* favourite manuscript.

All other bets are off.

Isn't it just ... E X Q U I S I T E ?

Isn't this manuscript just SUBLIME?

This is the presentation copy of John Lydgate's Lives of Edmund and Fremund, made for King Henry VI in the 1430s.

And look at that RAINBOW! 👀🌈

I am going rogue.

Here's a beautiful 11th-century manuscript (if such things really exist).

Arundel MS 155 is a Psalter written by Eadui Basan for Christ Church, Canterbury.

Still one of my favourite 12th-century manuscripts (or of any century, for that matter).
