Notes

Data Source: Leiden University Libraries Digital Collections

  • Former shelfmark: BPG 74 B.
  • Parts of various manuscripts bound together. According to Gumbert 2009, the first and the last part (ff. 1-66 and ff. 217-230) were already bound together in an earlier manuscript. ff. 125-160 and 161-186 were part of an older manuscript, perhaps with ff. 99-112 and 113-124. - Parts 7 and 9-10 are written by the same scribe; cf. Gumbert 1988.
  • Layout: With space provided for (decorated) initials.
  • Textual: (ff. 125r-158v) Paul the Deacon's Historia Romana is a slightly enlarged version of Breviarium ab urbe condita by Flavius Eutropius. - (ff. 217r-218r) Translation/adaptation attributed to John of Seville. Incipit: "Hic sequitur Ordo vivendi...".
  • Also described by MMDC.
