Verona, Biblioteca Capitolare, LIX (57) is a manuscript of the late sixth (Turner) or perhaps the early seventh century containing various canon law materials. According to Lowe it was "certainly at Verona in the time of Archdeacon Pacificus (†846)" and like Vat. lat. 1322 presumably also written there.
CLA IV 509 (via Earlier Latin Manuscripts) lists the content as follows:
- Acta Concilii Chalcedonensis; Vigilius Tapsensis; Athanasius, Apologia contra Arianos; Ambrosius, Ad Gratianum; Amphilochius, Sermones; Ps- Athanasius, De Symbolo; Cyrillus Alexandrinus, Epistulae; Quirillus, Opus Incertum; Theodoretus, Epistula; Gregorius Nazianenzus, Commentarius in Epistulam ad Philippenses.
According to Green, Innocent p. 28 it contains "a number of decretal letters" including one of Innocent I (JK 303). Maassen treated the contents as a separate collection: Collectio canonum in Verona, BC, LIX (57).
Mentioned by Green, but not in Kéry 1999 or Fowler-Magerl 2005. Apart from the specimen in CLA, no digital images are known (as of 2024). See now Matarasso's analysis.
