Notes

Source des données : Leiden University Libraries Digital Collections

  • The present 14 booklets of this manuscript are composed of 27 quires in which Ademar of Chabannes (989-1034) copied texts and drawings for use in school during the years c. 1010-1033. Originally Ademar bound these quires separately and provisionally with tackets. After Ademar’s death the quires were kept in St. Martial Abbey, Limoges, where he had spent the final years of his life. Testimony of this in the Ex libris note on f. 141v: “Hic est liber sanctissimi domni nostri MARCIALIS Lemovicensis ex libris bonae memoriae ademari Grammatici; Nam postquam idem [erased] multos annos peregit in domini servicio. ac simul in monachico ordine in eiusdem patris coenobio, profecturus hierosolymam ad sepulchrum domini nec inde reversurus multos libros in quibus sudaverat eidem suo pastori ac nutritori reliquid ex quibus hic est unus”. Eventually Bernard Itier, librarian of Saint-Martial, collected the assembled quires in one volume c. 1220. - On this manuscript see especially Van Els 2011, Van Els 2015 (edition) and Van Els 2020.
  • The writing dates from Ademar’s active years in Angoulême and Limoges (c. 1010-1033). More exact dating is difficult. Sometimes a post quem dating is possible (e.g. the description of the third translation of St. Martial in 1028) or a relative dating (the Expositio apocalypseos in VLO 15 is an adaptation of the Expositio apocalypseos in Berlin, SB, Phillipps 1664, which dates from c. 1029). Easter table (f. 193v-194r) for the years 1026-1063. List of Limoges bishops begun in the hand of Ademar, and continued by another hand after the name of bishop Jordanus (1020-1052). List of Tours bishops (f. 194v) has as last name bishop Arnulfus who succeeded Hugues I (died May 1023).
  • Foliation: In the old one-volume binding (since 1220) the present independent booklet VI was placed in the opening ff. 21v˄30r (a bifolium). Despite the new situation the old foliation of booklet VI, ff. 22-29, is still in use.
  • Textual: Contents mainly based on Van Els 2020, appendix 4 (which also marks texts and drawings in Ademar’s hand with asterisks). All texts edited by Van Els 2015.
  • Also described by MMDC, Handschriftencensus, Jonas and A.W. Byvanckgenootschap (database RKD, The Hague).
