Talk:Beatus of Liébana

Man, text and manuscript
There seems to be a great deal of confusion going on in this article and at Beatus of Liébana, Commentaries on the Apocalypse. Beatus of Liébana was a man. He wrote, among other things, a text, the Commentary on the Apocalypse. This text survives in several manuscripts, some of which are lavishly illuminated and are amongst the most important extant examples of Mozarabic illumination. I firmly believe that the man, the text and each of the manuscripts (or at least the illuminated ones) should have their own articles. As time permits, I will write articles for the manuscripts, unless someone beats me to it. Until then, I am going to convert this article into an article on the man, and redirect Beatus of Liébana, Commentaries on the Apocalypse to here. Dsmdgold 20:41, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Worse, although this is the page on Beatus, it is dominated by text that seems to have wandered in from Kingdom of Asturias. That may work in a term paper on the exegesis of the Commentaries, but the encyclopedia article should be about the man. I don't have the subject area knowledge to fix that; I just came across the article by accident, but I'll expand the bio with more information from Encyclopaedia Britannica.

 * Touché. The EB1911 article is primarily about the map and its derivatives, which should probably have its own article. David Brooks 18:09, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
