Script Commentary |
Script is expert Anglo-Saxon minuscule with occasional admixture of majuscule: G, M, and R often have the uncial form; S takes on a bizarre form resembling Z. The oldest annalistic entries made by the scribe are the same as the Lindisfarne annals in the Münster fragments (CLA 9.1233); the latest entry by the original hand is the obit of Abbot Sturmi (†779). Other annalistic entries are by somewhat later Anglo-Saxon and Caroline hands from Fulda. Fulda minuscule saec. IX¹ is used for entering some verses on fol. 32 and two letters of Pliny the Younger and some miscellaneous matter on foll. 46–47v. |
