Scholarship

The manuscript apparently was unknown to Maassen, Kaltenbrunner, Schwartz, Gundlach, Gassó/Batlle, and Hoskins.

According to Perels, La Rochelle, BM, 387 and Reg. lat. 566 likely were copied from the same exemplar of a collection of letters written to Archbishop Ado of Vienne (the Collectio Adonis).

As for Hilary's De synodis, according to Durst La Rochelle, BM, 387 (his R) is the oldest extant copy of a separate transmission of the work (p. 266). R belongs in his ψ family; these manuscripts often lack an incipit and in the expliicit refer to Hilary's work as Contra omnes hereses (pp. 270-271).
