Oxford, Bodleian Library, e Mus. 103

From Clavis Canonum

Oxford, Bodleian Library, e Mus. 103 (SC 3689) is a copy of a version of the Dionysiana containing conciliar material but not the decretal collectio (the Liber decretorum Dionysii). The manuscript belonged to Justel whose edition of the Dionysiana relies on it for the conciliar canons of the Dionysiana.

Origin

Opinion on the place and date of origin are divided. Maassen p. 427 dated it to the tenth century. Bischoff, Katalog no. 3796 asserted it originated in "Westfrankreich, IX. Jh., ca. 2. Viertel" (but note that in 1975 Mordek, Kirchenrecht p. 241 had cited Bischoff for "saec. IX ca. 3/4, wohl Ostfrankreich").

Content

e Mus. 103 is variously described as a copy of the Collectio Dionysio-Hadriana or the Collectio Dionysiana II:

  • The Summary catalogue, Mordek, Kirchenrecht pp. 241-242, and the modern (online) summary description call it a Dionysio-Hadriana
  • Maassen, Geschichte p. 427 („Bodleian 3689“), Brett, Kéry p. 10, Fowler-Magerl p. 30, and Firey call it a copy of the Dionysiana II.
  • Bischoff, Katalog no. 3796 described the contents as "Canones".
