year = {2021},
note = {The discovery of seven manuscript fragments of the Old French Suite
Vulgate du Merlin in a set of early printed books in the Bristol
Central Library hit global headlines in 2019. This book contains a
comprehensive study of these fascinating Arthurian fragments.     
Beginning with an extensive contextual history, the authors reveal
details of the fragments’ origin, their importation to England, and
their subsequent journey to a waste pile in a bookbinder’s workshop,
where they would be incorporated into the bindings of a four-volume
edition of the works of Jean Gerson in the early sixteenth century. A
full enquiry into the provenance of these host volumes sets out the
possible routes from the bookbinder’s workshop to their final home
in Bristol Central Library.      Using multi-spectral imaging to read
the damaged sections of text, the authors also provide a full edition
and translation of the narrative contained in the fragments.},
