Notes

Bodleianus Baroccianus 76.  (Madan Summary Catalogue no. 76 = old Bodley no. 1229.)  Fifteenth century, paper, 437 folios. Miscellany of various writers, especially grammatical and religious matters (including the schism between the churches).

For detailed list of contents, see Coxe's entry in Bibliography. This is untouched by Barbour & Wilson, except at §77 (fols. 420sqq.), where they label this συμβουλευτικὸς λόγος an autograph by Michael (Michaïlos) Apostolius, for whom see Sathas pp. 71-74 in the Bibliography and Online Resources and, for images of his penmanship in Mus. Brit. Harleianus 1814, the link "Example from the Scribe" in Online Resources; also, Repertorium der griechischen Kopisten no. 278. Discussion and image in Wilson's Mediaeval Greek Bookhands, no. 80 with its accompanying plate.

17r-19v  Various minor works on Crete, including how Cronus became her king.  Incipit, «Κρόνος βασιλεὺς Κρήτης, οὗτος ἐξορισθεὶς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἰδίου υἱοῦ Διὸς...»
