Here you can find the descriptions of the French Palatine manuscripts as published in the manuscripts catalog "Die französischen Handschriften der Codices Palatini Latini in der Vatikanischen Bibliothek (Pal. lat. 1957–1973, 1983–1984, 1988–1992, 1995) ", beschrieben von Uli Steiger und Thorsten Huthwelker, Heidelberg 2025 (Kataloge der Universitätsbibliothek Heidelberg 14). The description for each manuscript was subsequently recorded as TEI-XML file by XML encoding in accordance with TEI-P5 using GND standard vocabulary. These TEI files follow an outdated TEI schema originally developed at the Herzog August Bibliothek Wolfenbüttel and contain some ad hoc solutions which were chosen pragmatically in Heidelberg and which do not always comply with the TEI Guidelines. A future migration of the dataset into a fully TEI-compliant format is considered as desirable.
