'De Homine' by Albertus Magnus, late 13th century manuscript [EUL MS 200]

The manuscript contains Albert's 'De homine'. Originally treated as the second part of the manuscript of 'De Rerum Origine' (one of Albert's best known works of theology, 'Summa de Creaturis'), this treatise is now viewed as a separate work.
