Città del Vaticano, BAV, Vat. lat. 1357

From Clavis Canonum

Città del Vaticano, BAV, Vat. lat. 1357 is a copy of Ivo's Decretum (V in Brett's edition); saec. XII, double columns. French.

Vat. lat. 1357 is very close to Paris, BnF, lat. 14315 (= P; see Landau 1984, 9, Kuttner/Elze 1986, 122-24, listing the few added texts at the end) in what it includes and omits. It cannot be a copy of P, since it has a long addition to Decretum 11.102 otherwise found only in M, with which it sometimes agrees against P elsewhere, it lacks many of P’s idiosyncracies, and contains some substantial variants in the main text which were only added in the margins of P later. The text has been extensively corrected – particularly by the insertion of missing words, or even whole canons – though the notes below record only the most substantial of these. Most may be no more than corrections from the exemplar, though occasionally they suggest a return to another form of the source. However, at the end of the text, but in the main hand, are seven canons omitted in the main text (and P) – Decretum 16.19-21, 39-40; 17.32, 45. These were presumably drawn from a second exemplar which resembled CRSM rather than P or Paris, BnF, lat. 3874 (= B). The distinction between the main hand and later annotators in the text below is entirely provisional. In book 1, and occasionally in book 16, a smaller hand has added a number of rubrics which sometimes resemble, but do not agree with, those found in M. The rubricator who inserted the initial letters for each canon was extremely accident-prone, sometimes absurdly so.
