The ''Aberdeen Bestiary'' (Aberdeen University Library, Univ Lib. MS 24) is a 12th-century English illuminated manuscript bestiary that was first listed in 1542 in the inventory of the Old Royal Library at the Palace of Westminster.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.abdn.ac.uk/bestiary/history.hti )〕 Information about its origins and patron are circumstantial. It probably comes from the 12th century and was owned by a wealthy ecclesiastical patron of the north or south province. The ''Aberdeen Bestiary'' is related to other bestiaries of the Middle Ages such as the ''Ashmole Bestiary''.〔 == Creation == * Folio 1 (i.e., leaf) recto: Creation of heaven and earth (''Genesis'', 1: 1-5). * Folio 1 verso: Creation of the waters and the firmament (''Genesis'', 1: 6-8). * Folio 2 recto : Creation of the birds and fishes (''Genesis'', 1: 20-23). * Folio 2 verso : Creation of the animals (''Genesis'', 1: 24-25). * Folio 3 recto : Creation of man (''Genesis'', 1: 26-28, 31; 2: 1-2). * Folio 5 recto : Adam names the animals (Isidore of Seville, ''Etymologiae'', Book XII, i, 1-2). * Folio 5 verso : Animal (''Animal'') (Isidore of Seville, ''Etymologiae'', Book XII, i, 3) * Folio 5 verso : Quadruped (''Quadrupes'') (Isidore of Seville, ''Etymologiae'', Book XII, i, 4) * Folio 5 verso : Livestock (''Pecus'') (Isidore of Seville, ''Etymologiae'', Book XII, i, 5-6) * Folio 5 verso : Beast of burden (''Iumentum'') (Isidore of Seville, ''Etymologiae'', Book XII, i, 7) * Folio 5 verso : Herd (''Armentum'') (Isidore of Seville, ''Etymologiae'', Book XII, i, 8) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aberdeen Bestiary」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
