CORREIA, Inês. A imagem como instrumento de identidade - A figuração de São Jerónimo no manuscrito Bíblico ANTT, Lorvão 45. Medievalista [online]. 2012, n.11, pp.201-230.  Epub June 30, 2012. ISSN 1646-740X.  https://doi.org/10.4000/medievalista.824.

Our discussion focuses on the image of the 'Scribe' that fills the first initial of a 13th century Bible, Ms. ANTT, Lorvão 45. It reflects an exercise of analysis based on Panofsky's method, but complemented by the vision of image as a possible result of multiple meaning, applied by Jean Wirth as hybrid iconography.

Several 'Scribe' images, from Bibles of the same period, are compared with earlier ones, in order to achieve a deliberate iconographic system, which relates the Scribe (as scriptor) with Jerome (Doctor of the Church).

Keywords : Medieval manuscript; Iconography; Scribe; Saint Jerome; Bible.
