Bodleian Library's Baroccian manuscript 142, relating to the schism between Eastern and Western Church, was published in Latin and English, the Latin text under the title: Anglicani novi schismatis redargutio. Hody ascribed it to Nicephorus Callistus Xanthopulus, "but [it is] rather by an unknown author who lived about 1237." -- BM.
