Admont, Stiftsbibliothek, Cod. 162

From Clavis Canonum

Admont, Stiftsbibliothek, Cod. 162 is a manuscript (saec. XII) of 207 folios containing a mix of canon law and polemic writings.

On fol. 6-139, in long lines, is a copy of the second version of the Collectio Tripartita (= D in the Brett/Nowak edition). The manuscript is not damaged at end, where the collection ends with Tripartita B20.58. It is closely related to K, N, and M though a copy of none (or of their source, since it lacks some of KN’s distinctive shared readings), and among these is very close to M, like which it omits canons at fairly frequent intervals. Like M too, it lacks the additions after Tripartita B9.2 which are found in N, but the other omitted canons in both D and M make the significance of this hard to assess. The text has been heavily corrected, but not apparently from a copy of another version. Has a small set of additions after Tripartita B 14, and extensive material added in several hands at the beginning and end, much of it also shared with M, for which, at least in these sections, it may well be the source – for which see Brett's account online.

On fol. 154v-163v "Canones aliquot quibus exempla regum excommunicatorum addita sunt". Otherwise the second half of the codex (fol. 140r-206v) contains Agobar´s De antiphonario and above all polemical works by Bernold of Konstanz, Manegold of Lautenbach, Peter Damian, Deusdedit, and Anselm of Lucca.
