Zur Identifikation von Extravagante 26 des Liber Papiensis in der Hs. Mailand, Biblioteca Ambrosiana O. 55 sup

Abstract

Summary The article discusses the identification of Extravagant 26 of the so-called Liber Papiensis, which is uniquely transmitted in an 11th century manuscript now known as Milan, Biblioteca Ambrosiana O. 55 sup. We argue that the chapter in question is a corrupted version of a chapter from the Etymologiae of Isidore of Seville, which was adapted to appear more like a capitulary.
