The Codex Granatensis is an illuminated compendium of scientific knowledge embellished by six hundred finely painted miniatures attributed to Martinus Opifex. The manuscript dates to around 1445 and contains part of the encyclopedia Liber de natura rerum, a guide to applying natural philosophy to theology by Thomas de Cantimpré. Also included are extracts from the Tacuinum Sanitatis (a Latin version of an Arabic medical treatise) and a treatise on falconry. Marginal annotations provide German translations of isolated phrases of the Latin text.

International social justice movements and the debates that ensued prompted us to start considering the contents of our website from a critical point of view. This has led us to acknowledge that most of the texts in our database are Western-centered. We have asked the authors of our content to be aware of the underlying racial and cultural bias in many scholarly sources, and to try to keep in mind multiple points of view while describing the manuscripts. We also recognize that this is yet a small, first step towards fighting inequality.

If you notice any trace of racist or unjust narratives in our communications, please help us be part of the change by letting us know.
