Présentation du contenu

  • Résumé : This handsome manuscript contains a Pontifical. On script grounds it has been attributed to Canterbury, probably St Augustine's rather than Christ Church; however its text has been held to show that it was made for use at Christ Church, Canterbury. The script of CCCC MS 44 shows it to have been written at some point during the middle two quarters of the eleventh century, but a more precise dating is arguably possible given the association of the coronation ordo it contains (the third recension of the second ordo) with William the Conqueror. This association is by no means generally accepted. The distinctive mark on f. 3 shows that the manuscript was at Ely in the later Middle Ages. It has been suggested that it might have been part of the treasure of Archbishop Stigand (1052-72), with which he fled to Ely shortly before his death in 1072; clearly this again depends on how one interprets the dating evidence of the manuscript's text.

  • It is probable to my mind from this (the hand reminiscent of St Augustine's, Canterbury) and from the invocations in the Litany that the book was written at Canterbury. But, as we shall see, it belonged in cent. xv to Ely.

Notes

Source des données : Parker on the Web

  • Research: Wanley (p. 109) prints the end of this Preface, which ends on 2r.
  • Research: The Coronation-service is used by Legg, Three Coronation Orders, p. xxxviii (pl. 3) and Liebermann, pp. xxi, 215, 365, 401, 416 (ordeals). He calls it Ce and assigns it to 1040-80.
  • Research: See also Henderson, Liber pontificalis Eboracensis, p. xxi.
  • Additions: On the flyleaf (i), in the xvith cent. hand which reappears at the end, is: Index huius pontificalis. I do not think it is one of Parker's additions: it seems to me earlier.
  • Additions: The original hand begins 1r with a Preface in Anglo-Saxon. Two leaves are gone and the first page has been erased, but the text of it is probably recoverable.
  • Additions: In the lower margin of f. 189v (p. 386) is an erased inscription of cent. xv-xvi: Ely Iste liber pertinet ecclesie Eliensi. Above it an inscription of Parker's date erased (probably as being erroneous). I read the words: ... vocat(us?) The red book of ... This seems to show that the writer of the note confused this MS. with MS 422, which was really the Red Book of Derby; and that he or some one else realized the mistake and erased the note.
  • Additions: The writing is splendid throughout. The initials are perfectly plain, in green, blue or red.
