Abstract

Based on the earliest catalogues, dating from the late eighteenth century, in the National Library of Portugal, this essay delves into the identification of COD. 2294 with the Livro de alveitaria donated by Cenáculo at the foundational stage of this institution, and with the manuscript originally classified as H-5-39. Taking into account these (among other) documents, as well as the earliest descriptions of this volume (mainly those by Francisco Martins de Andrade in the second half of the nineteenth century, and by Gabriel Pereira at the beginning of the twentieth century), this paper analyses and explains several details concerning its contents, its chronology and its material aspect in order to correct mistakes and provide further data that may contribute to a more precise rendering of the manuscript.
