---

Rouen did never fully convert its liturgical calendar to the composite type, with a saint for every day of the year.
This calendar is obviously not a genuine Rouen product, but a late adaptation for use in Rouen, by insertion
and rubrication of 3-4 key saints, in an already existing calendar of the Paris type from another source.
It has only 42 deviations from an immaculate ideal Paris standard calendar, and the large majority of variants are obvious
scribal errors. In other words: this is a Paris calendar, only slightly modified for use in Rouen, and without any of
the particular Rouennaise spellings. It was, however, none the less written
and decorated in Rouen during the period c.1490-1510, the style of the illuminator(s) is not to be mistaken.
Like similar french calendars has it a large number of scribal errors, one is the obvious dittography of "Saint Yfeme"
[Eufemia] in April. Do not spend your time in a wain effort to determine which of the two days is the proper feast.
There is no Saint or Sainte Eufeme on 27-28 April! Should you encounter a calendar elsewhere, which seems to be
identical will a notice about it be highly appreciated and acknowledged.
The contents of the manuscript has been described in detail by Peter Kidd in his catalogue:
"Medieval manuscripts from the collection of T. R. Buchanan in the Bodleian Library", Oxford 2001, p.20-27

picture, c.500 pixels high, large enough to recognize the text.
The larger images are bigger than the screen.
If you open the link in a new window will it be possible to compare the transcript and the pictures side by side.
A click on the link in the header above will show a full display of all the small thumbnail pictures from the Bodleian site, with brief identification of the zodiacs and the labours of the months.
