Abstract

© KONINKLIJKE BRILL NV, LEIDEN, 2015. Cardinal Nicholas of Cusa wrote the Cribatio Alkorani in Rome during the years 1459-1460 and dedicated it to Pius II. In preparing this work, he used a new set of glosses made to the Alchoranus Latinus in MS Vat. Lat. 4071. These were different from the glosses in MS Kues 108, used to compose his previous work, De pace fidei, written in 1453.
