Roberti Grosseteste Episcopi Quondam Lincolniensis Epistolæ (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Roberti Grosseteste Episcopi Quondam Lincolniensis Epistolæ

It is somewhat remarkable that this letter is in none of the mss. Which contain the collected Letters of Grosseteste, unless, indeed, it was in the Cotton ms, now destroyed, from which Brown printed. Still the fact that Matthew Paris gives it as Grosseteste's must remove any doubt as to its genuineness. It has been excessively popular at all times, as besides Matt. Paris and the Burton Annals, there is a very large number of mss. Which con tain it, together with Innocent's letter; and besides the editions of Paris, it has been printed at least six times.
