From the Circle of Alcuin to the School of Auxerre Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2009
PREFACE
Tables 1 and 2 (below, pp. 182–3 and 184) present some detailed evidence for my discussion of ‘standard’, ‘eccentric’ and Eriugena-inspired glosses in Chapter 5 (above, pp. 121–3). Table 1 records the results of a study of the glosses to a selection of lemmata in the various early medieval manuscripts of the Categoriae Decem. These glosses correspond only in part to those edited below: for the sake of the completeness of the survey, I wished to include certain rather dull or derivative glosses which are, nevertheless, included in most manuscripts (e.g. those to 137:14, 137:17–18); and the many important glosses unique to M, G and/or H are considered not here, but in Table 2.
The symbols used in the tables represent most of the characteristic features of the transmission of early medieval glosses. It will be seen that for each lemma there is a standard gloss (‘X’), which occurs in more or less the same form in a considerable number of manuscripts. Table 1 illustrates how no standard gloss is included in every manuscript; and how no one manuscript has every standard gloss.
