The Missal of Kotor: A Liturgical Monument of Medieval Dalmatia

Roger E. Reynolds ; Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies, Toronto, Canada

Abstract

The Missal of Kotor has long been known to scholars specializing in Beneventan script. The designation of it comes from a brief notice in the Calendar for the feast of St. Tryphon, patron of the Kotor cathedral, and an illustration of a young man above which was much later written Tryphon’s name.
Whether or not the manuscript was made for the cathedral of Kotor dedicated to St. Tryphon or elsewhere and then eventually taken to or used in the cathedral is the question addressed by this article.
