Description

Contains an excerpt from the De avibus, a moralized book on birds by Hugh of Fouilloy (folio 1r-35). The title of the excerpt is De bestiis et aliis rebus ad Raynerum conversum, but only the De avibus/i> excerpt is included. This is usually the first book of the De bestiis et aliis rebus, which has up to four books and is usually (and incorrectly) attributed to Hugh of Saint Victor.

Also contains several other works by Hugh of Fouilloy (De rota praelationis et de rota simulationis, De nuptiis, Tractatus de medicina animae, etc.).
