I recently found out that my favorite medieval editorial joke exists in another edition, which was probably printed around the year 1512! Please meet Nemo/Nobody (depicted in the frame). München, Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Res/P.o.lat. 1636,28 (title page).

When you write a French-Spanish language book, explain that it's important to know the different letters... .. & then the typographer gets the alphabet wrong. From Charpentier 'La parfaicte methode pour entendre, escrire et parler la langue espagnole', Paris: M. Guillemot, 1596

En plus le sujet de ce mandement parodique est très typique pour les mandements joyeux médiévaux : au Moyen Âge aussi on se plaignait déjà beaucoup de la météo dans ces textes joyeux.

The multilingual Middle Ages! One of my favourite examples of early medieval multilingualism is this 10th-c. poem about the Anglo-Saxon poet Aldhelm, written in alliterative macaronic verse, with Old English and Latin half lines, as well as some Latinised Greek!
