Manuscript Summary:
Manuscript Summary
This manuscript, produced in Mainz in the second quarter of the ninth century, contains Books I-IX of Isidore of Seville’s Etymologies. From the second half of the ninth century, this volume was probably in St. Gall. There it and other copies of the Etymologies (Zofingen, Stadtbibliothek, Pa 32, St. Gallen, Stiftsbibliothek, Cod. Sang. 236, Cod. Sang. 231, Cod. Sang. 232) received rich annotations. It is attested in Schaffhausen at the end of the fifteenth century. The magnificent schemata on ff. 152v-154r are noteworthy.
