Script Commentary |
Script is by four hands, in part pre-Caroline, in part Caroline by the good scribe Dominicus who wrote CLM 18092, and in part a poor imitation of his script: he often started the page by writing several lines obviously meant to serve as a model for his pupils who pick up where he left off (foll. 1, 3v, 6v, etc.). The scribe of foll. 41 ff. forms capital Q by crossing the two arcs at the base. The subscription at the end of a homily on fol. 116 is manifestly taken over from the exemplar and the 'indignus peccator et culpabilis' does not give his name. A contemporary Anglo-Saxon hand makes corrections throughout (foll. 46, 83, 97, et passim). Some notes by a Freising scholar saec. XV. |
