Homiliary (Paul the Deacon, etc.); Germany, mid-12th century

Contents

(fol. 1r)

An originally blank page, with numerous later inscriptions, some in German, several erased:

‘It(em) hic fuit xiij So[ … ](?) | Salve regina misericordie vita | dulcedo et spes mea’ (upper middle)

‘[ … ] vigilate quia aduers⟨arius⟩ | noster diabolus ⟨tamquam⟩ | leo rugiens circuit ⟨quer(?)⟩ens cui resistite fortes(?) | in fide [ … ] domini | nostri’ [cf. I Peter 5:8–9] (upper right corner)

‘Salve regina misericordie vita dulcedo et spes nostra | … | … O clemens. O pia. O dulcis Maria’ (upper middle); the opening words repeated a few times elsewhere on the page (Chevalier 18150; cf. 18147); Analecta hymnica, L (1907), p. 318 no. 245)

‘Quando(?) incipitur a capite lectio sancti evangelii secundum Iohannem. In illo tempore. Dixit Ihesus discipulis suis Vado ad eum qui me misit et nemo ex vobis interrogat me [John 16:5] Omelia venerabilis Bede presbiteri. De eadem lectione. Quando legitur ex omelia … et nemo ex vobis interrogat me quo vadis et reliqua’ (lower left)

Short pen trials include:

  • ‘Homo quid’, repeated several times
  • ‘In omni tribulatione et angustia nostra mart’ …’
  • ‘Caseus est carus dixit quidam avarus | Non s..detur nisi in festis(?) celebretur’ and variants (cf. Walther, Proverbia, no. 2433)
  • ‘Omnia que tua sunt post mortem nil prosunt’ (Walther, Proverbia, no. 20051)

Passages apparently in German include:

  • ‘Con(?) apt zu selgistat(?) | Item(?) hic fuit her joh..(?) .. | p(r)ior in selgestat(?) | bruk(?) swalbach reddehern | husescem(?) swalbach gorlach(?) | [ ]hart lut’n herkehusen | dadelsem(?) (upper middle; perhaps Konrad II abbot of Seligenstadt c.1269-79)
  • ‘[…]got von Humelrich(?) usz allen’, twice (lower left)

Other phrases are erased or otherwise difficult to read.

Marks of ownership (cf. Provenance) include: ‘Codex sanctorum martirum Marcellini et Petri in Selegunstadt’ (lower middle; written a few times above and below); ‘Edges’ (lower middle)

Language(s): Latin and Middle High German
(fols. 1v–110v)
Homiliary

From Holy Saturday to the Octave of Pentecost (ending incomplete)

Major feast-days include Easter (fol. 6v), the Sunday after Easter (fol. 39v), the first Sunday after the octave of Easter (fol. 4v), Ascension (fol. 74v), and Pentecost (fol. 93r). The vigil of Pentecost starts on a new quire (after the short Quire 11), and is written by a different scribe.

Mostly from the Homiliary of Paul the Deacon, but with additional homilies for Pentecost week including two from the so-called 'Bavarian homiliary', for which see H. Barré, Les homéliaires carolingiens de l'école d'Auxerre: authenticité, inventaire, tableaux comparatifs (Vatican, 1962), 26 and tables. References to Paul the Deacon are to the homilies as numbered in R. Gregoire, Homéliaires liturgiques médiévaux: analyse de manuscrits, 423-78, with numbers in parentheses referring to the collection as described in PL 95.

CCSL 122.311-7; PL 94.197-202; Paul the Deacon 16 (In Pascha annotina)
Language(s): Latin

Physical Description

Two codicological units (production units), fols. 1-86 and fol. 87-110
Secundo Folio: sionis sepulture
Form: codex
Support: parchment; with occasional original holes and other flaws; one or more of the outer margins often excised
Extent: i + 110 + i leaves
Dimensions (leaf): 355 × 245 mm.
Foliation: i, 1-111 in pencil

Collation

1–9(8), 10(8-1) (fols. 73–79, 6th leaf missing before fol. 78 but with no loss of text), 11(8–1) (fols. 80–86; last presumably blank cancelled) | 12–14(8); late(?)-medieval quire signatures in Roman numerals [i]– xiiij; ‘ix’ is used for both the 9th and 10th quires (fols. 72v, 79v, where corrected to ‘ixi’), but the 11th is correctly signed ‘xi’; ‘xiij’ occurs twice on one page (fol. 102v).

Layout

Ruled in plummet for two columns of 31 lines.

Fols. 1v-86v: ruled space 275 × 160 mm.

Fols. 87r-110v: ruled space 275 × 185 mm.

Hand(s)

Written mainly by two formal Romanesque bookhands, changing at the start of Quire 12.

Decoration

One historiated initial in red ink and green wash: St Matthew(?): a full-length standing male numbed figure, beardless but with long hair; he stands on top of a large foliate initial ‘U’ (fol. 1v).

Most of the major decoration occurs in the second part of the volume: One pair of large initials in red with a pale yellow wash background (fol. 87r); other major initials at the vigil of Pentecost (fol. 87r), and Pentecost (fols. 91v, 93v, 95v), the latter with a dragon-bird-vegetal hybrid. One foliate initial is sketched but not inked (fol. 6v); some spaces completely blank or with very faint designs sketched (e.g fol. 10r).

Doodles include human and animal/demon faces and figures, black-letter letters in outline, etc. (fol. 1r)

Binding

Laudian binding. Sewn on four bands laced into pasteboards covered with brown leather, the centre of each cover stamped in gilt with the arms of archbishop Laud; no pastedowns; fore-edge tabs made partly from reused MS. waste (see e.g. fol. 2v); modern flyleaves; the joints repaired; traces of two ties at the fore-edge; the spine with vestiges of paper labels.

Accompanying Material

The Summary Catalogue records the presence of ‘a fragment of a Latin Antiphoner of German origin’ which ‘may be 14th c.’, not mentioned in the Laud catalogue, and now absent.

History

Origin: 12th century, middle ; German

Provenance and Acquisition

Seligenstadt (diocese of Mainz), Benedictine abbey of Sts Marcellinus and Peter: inscribed in the 13th(?) century, ‘Codex sanctorum martirum Marcellini et Petri in Selegunstadt’(?) (fol. 1r, several times), and ‘Codex sanctorum mart..(?)’ (fol. 49r, upper margin).

The excision of margins happened by the 15th(?) century, to judge by the attempts to restore missing letters and words (e.g. fols. 20r, 26v, 65r–v); a 14th(?)-century hand added notes next to some texts which lack adequate rubrics, e.g. ‘de resurrectione domini’ (fol. 7v), and ‘in chor⟨o⟩’ (fol. 106r).

Presumably in a Cistercian or Carthusian house when punctus elevatus punctuation was altered to punctus flexus punctuation (e.g. fol. 9r–v). The Summary Catalogue suggested that the 15th(?)-century shelfmark(?) (fol. 1v) in the form of a ‘U’ flanked on each side by squiggles shaped like a ‘z’ or medieval arabic numeral ‘2’, themselves flanked on each side by a dot: ‘.z. U .z.’, was comparable to a shelfmark(?) in MS. Laud Misc. 456, from the Mainz Charterhouse. The comparison is not convincing and there is no other evidence for Mainz provenance.

‘Edges’ written in a 16th- or early 17th-century English(?) hand (fols. 1r, 2r, lower margin).

Archbishop William Laud, 1573–1645: with the usual inscription, here dated 1638 (fol. 1v, lower margin).

Part of his third donation to the Bodleian, 1639. Former Bodleian shelfmarks: ‘F.110’ (crossed through) and ‘Laud 465’ (encircled) (inside front cover).
