Here you can find the descriptions of the Latin Palatine manuscripts as published in the manuscripts catalog "Die medizinischen Handschriften der Codices Palatini Latini in der Vatikanischen Bibliothek", edited by Ludwig Schuba, Wiesbaden 1981 (Kataloge der Universitätsbibliothek Heidelberg 1). 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as TEI-XML file by XML encoding in accordance with TEI-P5 using GND standard vocabulary.These TEI files follow an outdated TEI schema originally developed at the Herzog August Bibliothek Wolfenbüttel and contain some ad hoc solutions which were chosen pragmatically in Heidelberg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.
