Description
Summary:The Royal Library of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial (Madrid) possesses a breviary written at the beginning of the twelfth century and which has not attracted the attention of researchers. Its principal value lies in the fact that it is one of the oldest known examples of this type made on the Iberian peninsula. This article proposes both a codicological description and a description of the textual content with a view to demonstrating its monastic attribution, as well as offering a re-ordering of the fascicules which have been re-arranged in their current, seventeenth-century, binding. Finally, some elements are compared with other monastic sources, both peninsular and French, that allow us to hypothesise its origin in the Pyrenean monastery of San Juan de la Peña (Huesca).
La Real Biblioteca del Monasterio de San Lorenzo de El Escorial (Madrid) conserva un ejemplar de breviarium escrito a principios del siglo XII que no ha llamado la atención de los investigadores. Su principal valor reside en ser uno de los testimonios más antiguos de esa tipología libraria que conocemos de factura ibérica. En este artículo se propone una descripción codicológica y del contenido textual con vistas a demostrar su adscripción monástica, ofreciendo además una reordenación de los fascículos, muy trastocados en su encuadernación actual, que data del siglo XVII. Por último, se comparan algunos elementos con otras fuentes monásticas peninsulares y francesas que permiten plantear la hipótesis de su origen en el monasterio pirenaico de San Juan de la Peña (Huesca).
