Script | ‘Corbie’ Majuscule |
Date | VIII–IX (780 - 820) |
Origin and Provenance |
Written in all probability at Corbie, or in a nearby region. Recovered when the codex was restored in 1976. The main MS is definitely connected with Corbie: it contains, inter alia, the Regula S Benedicti copied in 1304 at the request of ‘Iohannes du Candas officialis Corbeie’ (cf. the subscription on fol. 100r) and also documents connected with the monastery of Corbie; the Corbie ex-libris is found on fol. 3r. |

Script Commentary |
Script is the characteristic majuscule found with the ‘Corbie’ a-b type: A has the uncial form; D, E and Q are capital; the tail of uncial G leans to the left; the foot of L ends in a flourish descending below the line; the crossbar of T curves around to the left, touching the upright. |
