Bamberg, Staatsbibliothek, MS Can. 9 (P. I. 9) is a tenth to early eleventh-century manuscript of 123 folios in 1 col. (255 x 180 mm). Its collation and quire structure are not well known. Some quire signatures in Roman numerals were added, but are inconsistent and unclear. Preliminarily, they read as follows: ? + III<sup>23</sup> + III[I]<sup>31</sup> + V<sup>39</sup> + VI<sup>45</sup> + ? + I. VIII<sup>55</sup> + II. VIIII<sup>57</sup> + III.<sup>65</sup> + VI<sup>75</sup> + VII. XII<sup>81</sup> + XIIII<sup>95</sup> + X[V?]I<sup>105</sup> + XVI<sup>111</sup> + XVI<sup>119</sup>; based on these signatures, if they are correct, we can reconstruct the following preliminary collation: ?<sup>23</sup> + 2 x IV<sup>39</sup> + III<sup>45</sup> + ?<sup>55</sup> + I<sup>57</sup> + IV<sup>65</sup> + (III – 1)<sup>70</sup> + (III – 1)<sup>75</sup> + 2 x III<sup>87</sup> + IV<sup>95</sup> + ?<sup>105</sup> + III<sup>111</sup> + IV<sup>119</sup> + II<sup>123</sup>. Modern foliation in Arabic numbers in lead pencil; fols. 120-121 have been (accidentally?) reversed during that process. The manuscript was written by several hands in Caroline minuscule with some annotations in late Caroline minuscule and early modern hands in humanist minuscule. Its penning process probably took place in saec. X according to {{Author|Mordek}}, saec. X<sup>½</sup>-X<sup>ex</sup> according to {{Author|Kéry}}, or saec. X-XI<sup>¼</sup> according to ithe Vienna catalogue and {{Author|Hoffmann}}. While its origin is from Southern Germany according to {{Author|Kéry}}, more specifically Bavaria and probably Freising according to its catalogue, {{Author|Hoffmann}}, and {{Author|Mordek}}, its provenance is so far unknown.
'''Bamberg, Staatsbibliothek, Msc.Can. 9''' (''olim'' P. I. 9) is a late tenth to late eleventh-century manuscript of 232 folios in 1 col. (fols. 1r-v, 3r-6v, 8v-15v, 17v-22v, 25v-32r, 33v-45v, 47r-54v, 56v-68v, 71r-86v, and 89r-232v) and 2 cols. (fols. 2ra-vb, 7ra-8rb, 15va-17rb, 22va-25ra, 32va-33vb, 46ra- 46vb, 55ra-56va, 68va-70vb, and 87ra-88vb) (257 x 173 mm) consisting of two parts. Part I: 1r-127v in 31-37 lines; part II: 128r-232v in 26 lines. Its collation and quire structure are unknown. Quire signatures in Roman numerals start at ''I''<sup>134</sup> until ''X''<sup>194</sup> of which ''VII'' is missing. Modern foliation in Arabic numerals in distinct black ink. The manuscript was written by various hands, mostly in (late) Caroline minuscule, which change quite often especially in the 'younger' part, also including some additions in the margins. A thirteenth-century hand can be discerned on fol. 127v. Its various parts can be dated as follows, according to {{Author|Kéry}}: part I: s. XI<sup>1</sup> (fols. 105v-127r) and s. XI<sup></sup> (fols. 1r-105v); part II: s. X<sup>3/3</sup> (fols. 128r- 232r) or XI<sup>in</sup> (fols. 128r-169v), and XI<sup>3/3</sup> (fols. 206r-232r). {{Author|Müller}} seems to suggest an earlier date for part II on p. 29 ("reicht ... ins 10./11. Jhd.") but opts for a later date based on its paleography reasons on p. 30 ("vielleicht eher ins zweite Drittel des 11. Jhds. zu setzen"). Part I was written in Freising and part II in Southern Germany, probably in Regensburg. Its provenance can be traced to the Cathedral library at Bamberg.

TO FINISH The manuscript is a medium-sized codex and contains almost exclusively canonical material, which is mostly taken up by [[Pseudo-Remedius of Chur, Collectio canonum]], the [[Collectio XCVIII capitulorum]], and the ''[[Collectio XXX capitulorum (De ratione matrimonii)]]''. The codex contains the full version of the Council of Tribur (895) and a list of names of attendees of the Council of Ingelheim (948). Various other (excerpts of) conciliar canons, decretals, Salic law, and papal decretals were included, most notable eleven epistles by pope Nicholas I. Lastly, the work contains the Capitulary for the Jews, an unknown sermon and judicial treatise, and a text on the excommunication of Henry, duke of Bavaria, in 976.
The manuscript is a large-sized composite codex and contains mostly canonical material, dominated by three collections: the ''[[Collectio XII partium (first version)|Collectio duodecim partium]]'', [[Pseudo-Remedius of Chur, Collectio canonum]], and the ''[[Collectio XCVIII capitulorum]]''. The ''[[Collectio XXX capitulorum]]'' makes an appearance near the end of the codex. The manuscript contains a large list of other works, which can be deemed relevant to the study of canon law. This includes but is not limited to the False Investiture privileges, the so-called ''De investitura regis tract'' - a miscellany on king doing penance -, polemics of the Investiture contest, various decretals by Hadrian, Leo and Gregory the Great, and excerpts of Bede, Regino of Prüm, and other conciliar works.

MS Bamberg, SB, Can. 9 is a high-quality, well-preserved handwritten work. Especially its 'younger' part (I) seems to have been produced with parchment of exceptional quality. Part II's parchment is of no less quality, but is thinner and was therefore more prone to wear and tear. Still, both parts of the codex seem to have enjoyed close study and sparked interest in their readers. For example, the list of titles of the ''[[Collectio XII partium (first version)|Collectio duodecim partium]]'' was explained and sourced by a later hand, indicating it might have been used as study material on its own without any other canonical collection at hand. Furthermore, especially in part I, many dark spots of fingers can be discerned, indicating the work was a page turner regularly looked into by its audience.

TO EDIT
 
A composite manuscript. Part 1, by several hands of the twelfth century, contains the False Investiture privileges, the imperial version of the Papal Election Decree, the so-called De investitura regis tract (a miscellany on king doing penance), polemics of the investiture contest (Sigebert of Gembloux, Ivo of Chartres), and the Concordat of Worms, various polemics. Part 2, from the early eleventh century (Hoffmann, Märtl), contains excerpts of the second version of the [[Collectio XII partium (first version)|Collectio duodecim partium]].

Bamberg, Staatsbibliothek, Msc.Can. 9 (olim P. I. 9) is a late tenth to late eleventh-century manuscript of 232 folios in 1 col. (fols. 1r-v, 3r-6v, 8v-15v, 17v-22v, 25v-32r, 33v-45v, 47r-54v, 56v-68v, 71r-86v, and 89r-232v) and 2 cols. (fols. 2ra-vb, 7ra-8rb, 15va-17rb, 22va-25ra, 32va-33vb, 46ra- 46vb, 55ra-56va, 68va-70vb, and 87ra-88vb) (257 x 173 mm) consisting of two parts. Part I: 1r-127v in 31-37 lines; part II: 128r-232v in 26 lines. Its collation and quire structure are unknown. Quire signatures in Roman numerals start at I134 until X194 of which VII is missing. Modern foliation in Arabic numerals in distinct black ink. The manuscript was written by various hands, mostly in (late) Caroline minuscule, which change quite often especially in the 'younger' part, also including some additions in the margins. A thirteenth-century hand can be discerned on fol. 127v. Its various parts can be dated as follows, according to Kéry: part I: s. XI1 (fols. 105v-127r) and s. XI (fols. 1r-105v); part II: s. X3/3 (fols. 128r- 232r) or XIin (fols. 128r-169v), and XI3/3 (fols. 206r-232r). Müller seems to suggest an earlier date for part II on p. 29 ("reicht ... ins 10./11. Jhd.") but opts for a later date based on its paleography reasons on p. 30 ("vielleicht eher ins zweite Drittel des 11. Jhds. zu setzen"). Part I was written in Freising and part II in Southern Germany, probably in Regensburg. Its provenance can be traced to the Cathedral library at Bamberg.

Contents

The manuscript is a large-sized composite codex and contains mostly canonical material, dominated by three collections: the Collectio duodecim partium, Pseudo-Remedius of Chur, Collectio canonum, and the Collectio XCVIII capitulorum. The Collectio XXX capitulorum makes an appearance near the end of the codex. The manuscript contains a large list of other works, which can be deemed relevant to the study of canon law. This includes but is not limited to the False Investiture privileges, the so-called De investitura regis tract - a miscellany on king doing penance -, polemics of the Investiture contest, various decretals by Hadrian, Leo and Gregory the Great, and excerpts of Bede, Regino of Prüm, and other conciliar works.

Fol. 4r of the manuscript, showing chapters XVI-XXIII of the Collectio duodecim partium

MS Bamberg, SB, Can. 9 is a high-quality, well-preserved handwritten work. Especially its 'younger' part (I) seems to have been produced with parchment of exceptional quality. Part II's parchment is of no less quality, but is thinner and was therefore more prone to wear and tear. Still, both parts of the codex seem to have enjoyed close study and sparked interest in their readers. For example, the list of titles of the Collectio duodecim partium was explained and sourced by a later hand, indicating it might have been used as study material on its own without any other canonical collection at hand. Furthermore, especially in part I, many dark spots of fingers can be discerned, indicating the work was a page turner regularly looked into by its audience.
