The collection opens with Gneuss’s Rawlinson Center lecture, delivered just a few months prior to the Handlist’s publication. The lecture is followed by six essays that examine the scribes, contents, circumstances of production, and intended uses of selected manuscripts from the late Anglo-Saxon period and investigate the fates of Anglo-Saxon manuscripts at the hands of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century antiquaries.
