Remember the Devil's Bible?
You can browse the Codex here: http://www.kb.se/codex-gigas/eng/Browse-the-Manuscript/

The whole thing? Wow.
It's a shame I can't read Latin. :p That would be an interesting read. |
Some of the imagery is a bit fuzzy too, but yeah, ditto.
|
Any idea which page the Devil is on? We've got the chance to, so why not go to it?
|
It should have a few choices for which pages you want to view. There was a file called "The Devil" when I opened up the link.
Edit: Nvm. Click on Alphabet and The Devil should pop up. |
Not in Alphabets, but in a helpfully named folder - "The Devil". :p
Not the most artistic drawing, you have to admit, but it's still impressive. There's some very good colouring there. And the body has been drawn well. |
It wouldn't show up for me unless I clicked on Alphabets.
|
I was never told of the Codex Gigas.
I would blame the education system in America, however I realize it's my own fault. ----------------------------------- Interesting, I can sort of read it. Unfortunately I don't know a lot of latin, I'm only in my second year of it. |
I just found the text itself hardly to be legible.
|
Zoom is a wondrous feature.
|
I did use Zoom.
|
You're right, it's quite faded. The old English lettering doesn't make it any easier to translate.
