Collectio XLIV capitulorum „De episcoporum transmigratione“

The Collectio XLIV capitulorum or De episcoporum transmigratione et quod non temere iudicentur regule quadraginta quattuor is also in the Ms Vallicelliana Tome XVIII. A shorter form of the collection can be found in the Ms Rome, Biblioteca Casanatense 2010 (11th century, Rome or Farfa). Gian Pietro Pozzi edited the collection and the present analysis (ET) is based on that edition. Pozzi argues that this collection was compiled by Anastasius Bibliothecarius after the deposition of Rothad of Soisson in 864, but most scholars now see it as a response to the issues of the synod of Douzy in 872. 50
