Bede and Bernard, birds and beasts: an exploration of the illuminated initials of New College MS 308

Abstract:
New College Library’s 12th-century Bede manuscript might be better described not as a masterpiece of Cistercian insular art, but rather as an astonishing collection of no less than 192 miniature masterpieces. How does our beautifully illuminated MS 308 relate to five other Bede manuscripts—one at The British Library, two at the Bodleian, one at Pembroke College, Oxford, and one at the National Library of Wales?
