Bamberg, Staatsbibliothek, MS Can. 9 (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. XI⅔ (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
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.
