Présentation du contenu

  • Résumé : CCCC MS 245 is an early sixteenth-century volume containing the New Testament in English. It has no known association with Matthew Parker; but a hand-written addition to a college-owned copy of the Stanley catalogue records this manuscript was donated to the college in 1745 by John Duncombe (1729-86). Duncombe was an undergraduate and later Fellow of Corpus Christi who went on to combine his career in the church with life as a celebrated critic and poet. Duncombe frequently contributed to The Gentleman's Magazine under the pseudonym 'Crito' and enjoyed success with his poem An Evening's Contemplation in a College, a burlesque of Gray's Elegy in a Country Churchyard. Perhaps the quatrains at the end of each gospel in this manuscript are Duncombe's early attempts at poetic expression.
