 | | Facsimiles of ten important manuscripts of the Beatus Commentary on the Apocalypse have recently been purchased for the Medieval Institute Library Collection (7th floor, Hesburgh Library) through the collaboration and generosity of Professor Sabine MacCormack, the Graduate School, the Medieval Institute, the Department of History and the University Libraries. |
 | | This Commentary on the Apocalypse was composed in Northern Spain at the end of the eighth century, almost certainly by the monk Beatus of Liébana. |
 | | The summary descriptions above are taken from John Williams, The Illustrated Beatus: A Corpus of the Illustrations of the Commentary on the Apocalypse, 5 vols., Harvey Miller (London/Turnhout), 1994-2003. |
