  Thomas Aquinas: Commentary on the Sentences: Super Primo Libro Sententiarum

  Leaf 40. "This text on the Sententiae of Peter Lombard by St. Thomas Aquinas, the "Angelic Doctor," was the forerunner of the latter's great work Summa Theologica. It is most unusual to find the writings of a Church Father presented in a humanistic book hand" (Ege). "In this humanistic script, fusion disappeared, letters became more simple, and shading decreased."
  Original medium: Manuscript
