Script Commentary |
Script is sui generis; it is an odd mixture of minuscule and uncial elements, with unusually frequent use of the ligatures nt, te, ti (for both hard and soft ti), tu, and even tr; the bow of a is unattached and forms an acute angle; a form of a used at some line-ends recalls a-b script; suprascript a in zigzag shape (corrected to normal form) is seen on foll. 11v, line 8; it is also found in another Tegernsee hand in CLM 29121b; noteworthy is the intrusion of many uncial elements: R is constant, B and G are frequent, ꝺ and S sporadic. The first lines of each chapter are in uncial, also part of Lib. 2, cap. 1 and the epilogue. Many corrections and a number of Old High German glosses. |
