This volume contains the text only of three ordines, Ordo
breviarii, Ordo ad Benedicendum Mensam, Ordo Missalis Fratrum
Minorum. Haymo of Faversham was an English friar minor, and rose to
become the general of the whole order. He worked in Paris, Assisi
and Rome from 1230 to 1244, and was employed by Gregory IX in the
revision of the Breviary of the Roman Curia, which eventually
became the Breviary of the whole Roman Catholic church.
Henry Bradshaw (1831 86) was a scholar and librarian renowned for
numerous discoveries made whilst investigating the manuscripts and
early printed books of the Cambridge University Library. Much of
this material was uncatalogued at the time, nevertheless Bradshaw
was able to bring to light, among other things, the earliest known
Waldensian records. First published in 1889, this volume draws
together a large number of his papers and divides them into two
sections: the first contains written memoranda; the second contains
transcribed speeches originally read out before the Cambridge
Antiquarian Society. Additionally, there are thirteen illustrations
from various books and manuscripts. This is a fascinating text that
will be of value to anyone with an interest in early documents or
medieval history.
