| Origin and Provenance |
Written probably in Italy or possibly in an ancient centre in France. The manuscript was certainly in France in the seventh century (see the Besançon leaf). Belonged to Murbach. It was probably in a fragmentary state in the fifteenth century when its leaves were used for repairing purposes. The Gotha volume containing fragments of our manuscript was bought by Duke Ernest II (†1804) of Gotha-Altenburg from J. B. Maugérard between 1795 and 1802. The Leipzig fragments, once attached to the Cyprian manuscript now in Manchester (CLA 2.222), were an item in one of Hiersemann's catalogues of second-hand books in 1927 and are now supposed to be in Switzerland. |
