Volume / Number: 6 / 829

• Sélestat France Bibliothèque Humaniste 1A

Written probably in Italy, as script and orthography suggest, an origin not incompatible with its liturgy which experts consider a compromise between Milanese and Gallican. Provenance unknown. The manuscript was formerly kept with MS I (B), CLA 6.831, with which it agrees in size; they bore the common number 1093.

Script is a light, graceful uncial: the bow of uncial A is roundish and often rises above the base-line; the lower bow of B protrudes; i-longa occurs initially; the bow of R almost reaches the base-line; FF and LL often run together; the cedilla of e is pronounced. Corrections saec. X and neumes are seen on foll. 1 and 64v.
