This article gives notice of an important illuminated prayer roll linked to Bromholm Priory in Norfolk, a popular pilgrimage destination during the Middle Ages thanks to its miraculous relic of the Cross. Known hitherto only from its brief appearance on the market in the 1960s and 1970s, the roll has never before been closely examined or published in its entirety. Identification with John, bishop of Chalcedon, fixes a date for the roll between 1505 and 1535. It includes two images of the relic, and another with Christ nailed to the Cross. A fourth miniature shows the Three Nails to scale, the Crown of Thorns and the Five Wounds, and thus relates the Bromholm roll to Arma Christi rolls. Votive antiphons in Latin and English separate the illuminations, together with papal and episcopal indulgences and the amuletic Seven Gifts. The roll sheds new light on late medieval devotion, pilgrimage and the cult of the Cross at Bromholm.

16 世纪早期的祈祷卷和布罗姆霍尔姆圣地

本文介绍了与诺福克的布罗姆霍尔姆修道院相关的一个重要的发光祈祷卷,由于其奇迹般的十字架遗物,这是中世纪受欢迎的朝圣目的地。迄今为止,仅从 1960 年代和 1970 年代在市场上的短暂亮相就为人所知,该卷从未经过仔细检查或完整出版。查克登主教约翰的身份确定了 1505 年至 1535 年之间的卷轴日期。其中包括两幅遗物图像,另一幅是基督钉在十字架上的图像。第四微型显示了三个钉子至刻度,荆棘冠冕和五所伤,因而涉及的Bromholm辊阿玛斯蒂劳斯莱斯。拉丁文和英文的奉献对经将照明、教皇和主教的赎罪券以及护身符七件礼物分开。该卷为中世纪晚期的奉献、朝圣和布罗姆霍尔姆的十字架崇拜提供了新的视角。
