I have chosen the Lotario Dei Segni, De miseria humanae conditionis due to my interest in its many owners and how these owners may have changed, manipulated or added to the manuscripts existence and lived experience. I will also look into the way the books content was altered to inform latter readers of new information in the way today we would put out another addition. I will also look into what it means for a book to be a forgery and how that adds to this narrative of the altered living document.
De miseria humana condiciones is a latin text written in the 12th century by Lotario dei Segni, who later become Pope innocent III. The text is three parts that depict the human experience. The first part of the book the miserable conditions that accompany all humans as they pass through this world. The second book of this work calls particular attention to the unpleasant realities likely to confront a man living in the circles of the powerful and wealthy: avarice, corruption of justice, gluttony, lust, the love of honors
Although these concepts may seem dark and not worthy of a best seller at the time. They may have in fact been met with good faith. This is that it was comforting to know that every person is predisposed to have a tumultuous life and so reading about the horrors of human existence might make the burn hurt a little less when those same things happen to you
