Discusses progress to date in the creation of a database. The first stage was based on a series of computer files, each devoted to a single published work. The next stage will ideally include a database of each of CP’s successive collected works in manuscript: the Livre de Christine of 1402, the Duke’s manuscript of 1405–08, and the Queen’s manuscript of 1410–11.
