Ownership
The manuscript belonged to one Arnoldus de Gheel from Hertogenbosch (ex libris on fol. 291v: "Liber Arnodi de Gheel Busceducensis"); thereafter the book resided in the library of the Premonstratensian Abbey of Parc, near Louvain (library pressmark on back of front cover: "K IV") and was reported in 1636 as Summa fratris Monaldi, in pergameno by Abbot Jean Maes (1635-36), who compiled a list of the library's holdings at the time; this list was then printed in Antonius Sanderus's Bibliotheca belgica manuscripta (see bibliography). Part of the books in the library were bought by John Lee (born Fiott; 1783-1866) of Hartwell House near Aylesbury, England (his inscription on back of front cover: "I. Lee. Doctors Commons"); the manuscript was repaired for Lee in 1835 (inscription on back of front cover, probably in Lee's hand: "repaired August 1835 No 10/93"). Unidentified shelfmarks: "126" and "No. 18" on f. 1r.
Binding Information
Bound in tan calfskin over boards, 18th century, bearing gilt arms (most likely of the library at the Abbey of Parc) that were effaced when the library was sold in 1829; gilt-tooled and -stamped spine with red morocco spine label, "Fratris Monaldi summa ex multis auctoritatibus compilata." Kept in brown, cloth-covered box with leather spine; title on box spine: "Monaldus Summa MS on vellum."
