Abstract
The manuscript anthology Cambridge, Gonville and Caius College 187 :220 is a crucially important witness of Jean Molinet's poetry : it contains over seventy of his compositions, as well as several pieces whose attribution to Molinet is possible but uncertain. This study provides a detailed description of the manuscript, devoting particular attention to the Molinet poems which it transmits. It also examines the volume's anthologization and presentation (layout, paratext, etc.), to show the ways in which the scribes have perceived the different forms of knowledge conveyed in Molinet's work - historical, ideological, and metatextual knowledge, for instance - and foregrounded them selectively for readers.
