Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. For generations, a misidentified medieval manuscript was hidden in a 474-year-old English boarding school's library. After a careful new analysis, a medieval literature researcher can confirm the manuscript is actually the oldest and only known edition of Richard Rolle's () written in its original Latin.
