Abstract

This essay studies a small group of Castilian biblical manuscripts (Arragel’s Bible, Esc. I-I-4, I-I-5 and I-I-7) from a dialogic perspective between text and image. The miniatures of a codex are not only forms of material embellishment, but also elements emerged to ful ll certain expectations of patrons who commissioned books. They serve as iconographic expression of a thought that is not manifested in words and that have its origin in the milieu in which the copy and the illumination of the manuscript was produced.
