This is part a catalogue of all Latin manuscripts of the works of
Beothius, including his translations of Aristotle and Porphyry. The
six volumes are arranged geographically and are accompanied by a
general index, although each volume is also indexed separately. The
conspectus includes fragmentary texts, as witnesses of a
once-complete version. Each entry includes a short physical
description of the manuscript, a complete list of contents, a note
of any glosses present, a brief summary of any decoration, the
provenance of the manuscript and a select bibliography for each
codex. Particular attention is paid to the use of the manuscripts.
Since Boethius was an advocate of "artes" teaching, these
manuscripts give an insight into who was taught what, where, to
what level, and in what way.
