Szabolcs Anzelm Szuromi O.Praem: Some New Observations on the Textual Development of the Collectio Canonum Anselmi Lucensis (IAS, 2009/2., 141-148. o.)[1]

Recently, there has been a new stress to discover the textual development of the various canonical collections, especially up to the Decretum Gratiani (1140).[1] These new results have brought to light, that behind the different recensions of a particular collection we must recognize the different fields of the institutional activity of the Church. In 1987, Prof. Peter Landau published an article with the title: "Erweiterte

- 141/142 -

Fassungen der Kanonessammlung des Anselm von Lucca aus dem 12. Jahrhundert",[2]where he summarized the basic facts concerning the recensions of the Collection of Anselm of Lucca ('A'; 'B'; 'C'; 'Bb') which were classified originally by Paul Fournier in 1901,[3] before the critical edition of the collection by Friedrich Thaner.[4] Professor Landau drew up a scheme about the relations of the text traditions of the recensions. Based on the textual-critical analysis of the Collectio canonum Anselmi Lucensis, its formal sources can be reconstructed.[5] We can recognize some sources in his work which are similar to manuscripts that were kept in the library of the Cathedral of Lucca.[6] Therefore, it is very probable that Anselm's work was used at his city's cathedral school.[7]

There is a colligatum of fragments in the Reginenses Collection of the Bibliotheca Apostolica Vaticana, namely the BAV Reg. lat. 325.[8] This manuscript contains some parts of the great Gregorian canon law collection of Anselm of Lucca (Collectio Canonum Anselmi Lucensis).

I. The BAV Reg. lat. 325

The manuscript BAV Reg. lat. 325 can be divided into two distinct parts. The first part of the codex begins on fol. 1ra and it finishes on fol. 60vb. These parchments are very clear, light, refined. The text on the pages is divided into two columns, the size of the folios is 265 x 185 mm. This part was made of ten folio quires and it was copied in the 15[th] century which is supported by the script form (n° 1). The "incipit" of the first folio i.e.: Primus prologus de commendatione sacra scripture norm: (H)ec omnia liber vite ecclesiastici xxiiii. [...]. This is a prolog of a commentary for the Genesis (cf. foll. 3-49) and Exodus (cf. foll. 49-56v) by Nicolai de Lyra. It is very possible that the copier had not yet finished his work on this text. We can read on the top of fol. 56rb the last sentence, i.e.: Et ideo causa huia et que demos nichilponit. But this is not the end of this particular commentary. The rest of this folio is empty and also the follower folios until 60vb, where the quire finishes. There are only some vertical rulings.

- 142/143 -

The second part of the manuscript begins on fol. 61r. This text is organized in one column and a script style is a real clear humanistic form from the 15th-16th century (n° 2). The quality of the parchments is very good as in the first part. This part was made of eight folio quires, but only the first and last folios are parchments, the inside of quires contains good quality paper folios (255/262 x 152/155 mm). We mention here that the ruling on the paper folios was made by dark ink. The pages of the entire codex were trimmed on at least 3 sides. The Collection of Anselm begins on fol. 61r without a listing of the themes of the books. There is a red and gold headline: Incipit autentica et compendiosa collectio regularum et sententiarum sanctorum patrum [...]. Also the titles of the canons (Tabula titulorum) are not found. The first 47 canons of Book 1 are situated on foll. 61r-68v. The signed word "uniuerse" is to be found at the bottom of the last page of this quire, but the follower quires has a different "incipit".[9] A new section begins on fol. 69r with the title: In nomine Dei summi incipit ordo celebrando Concilio. The writing style also alters little from this page (n° 3). This section finishes on 72r, then we can read various themes under different titles: Sermo of Pope Leo the Great (440-461);[10] Exemplar libertatis;[11] Exemplar formate;[12] a commentary of the consanguinity degrees,[13] moreover an empty arbor of consanguinity.[14] Anselm's Collection begins again on fol. 80r, where the titles of 13 books (Capitulatio librorum) are found. The titles of the canons of Book 1 (Tabula titulorum) are found starting on fol. 80v by cursive writing style. There are 94 titles listed there. The first Anselm's canon is Book 1 c. 75 on fol. 83r from Pope Nicolas I (858-867)[15] but it is only the second part of that canon.[16] The original hand (n° 2) which has copied previously the text of Anselm's Collection appears again. Two more canons can be found there from the Liber Pontificalis, i. e. cc. 76-77.[17]

- 143/144 -

The last one is fragment again, what contains a part of the first sentence.[18] The codicological and paleographical evidences clearly indicate that the second section of BAV Reg. lat. 325 originally an unfinished copy of Anselm's Collection. Originally this copy begins with the titles of the 13 books,[19] which were continued the text of Book 1.[20] The section of 69r-79v was fitted between the quires of Anselm's text and the whole canonical part was bound after the also unfinished Old Testament Commentary.[21] We can ask a question, what was the binder's intention who has compiled this volume, which is known as BAV Reg. lat. 325. The theme of the biblical commentary certainly differs from the theme of the canonical texts. But this is not unique, because we know of similar instance concerning the manuscripts of Anselm's Collection. This is a 12[th] century textual-witness of recension 'A' of Anselm's Collection, namely Paris, Bibliotheque Nationale, lat. 12519. This particular manuscript begins with the history of Hasmoneas and it continues until the death of St. Peter and St. Paul.[22]

II. BAV Reg. lat. 325 compared with the version 'Bb'

The examination of canons of Book 1 shows that the canon structure follows the canons of the version 'Bb' which is represented the BAV Barb. lat. 535 and the Paris, Bibliotheque Nationale, lat. 12450.[23] We can recognize the canons which are supplements in version 'Bb' compared with recension 'A'.[24] Therefore, from c. 1 until c. 8 the canons are the same as in the recension 'A'. Book 1 c. 9 is a new canon which cites St. Cyprian's letter.[25] The contents of this text is similar as Book 1 c. 10 in recension 'A', which is also a canon from St. Cyprian and that's number in BAV Reg. lat. 325 is Book 1 c. 11.[26] If we read preciously the rest part of Book 1 there are found

- 144/145 -

again a new canon compared with text tradition of recension 'A'. It is Book 1 c. 39 which is attributed to Pope Marceline (296-304).[27] Both of mentioned canons are in the same order in the 'Bb' version. Moreover, we also refer to Book 1 c. 13, which abbreviated canon is situated on the margin as a supplement and it is found also in BAV Reg. lat. 325 with a same content.[28]

The new section of the manuscript which begins Ordo de celebrando concilio testifies again the 'Bb' form.[29] Here the compiler of 'Bb' used one of the opening text of the Decretales Pseudo-Isidorianae[30] supplemented with three canons of the Council of Chalcedon (451).[31] We do not want to get into a detailed analysis of the text of the other recensions of Anselm's Collection, except to mention that the text tradition of recension 'C' (i.e. BAV Vat. lat. 4983;[32] BAV Ottob. lat. 224;[33] Huesca, Biblioteca Publica Provincial 20[34]) also conserves this part from the Decretales Pseudo-Isidorianae. The context of recension 'C' contains some canons after this Pseudo-Isidorian material which made influence on text of the Paris, Bibliotheque Nationale, lat. 12450.[35] The

- 145/146 -

compiler of this late witness of the version 'Bb' enlarged the codex with a quire which contains that particular supplement from the recension 'C'. This new supplement breaks the continuity of the Ordo de celebrando concilio?[36] We can read a note on the margin of fol. 9r "ex Ms Vat." this sign is found many times in the entire codex by a contemporaneous hand. Therefore, it is very possible that this is a manuscript of recension 'C'.

The version 'Bb' explains the above mentioned theme of consanguinity after the celebrating rule of councils. These some pages can strengthen our supposition about the origin of the supplementary canons in the recensions of Anselm's text[37] The source of this significant theme is the Decretum of Ivo of Chartres.[38] The quoted canons and the arbor of consanguinity also can be found in the Decretum?[39] They are all the same in the 'Bb' and in the BAV Reg. lat. 325.[40]

The Collection of Anselm immediately begins after the consanguinity theme in the version 'Bb'[41] and the structure of BAV Reg. lat. 325 follows it. Both manuscripts marks a same numbered of canons (94) in Tabula titulorum of Book 1.[42] If we observe the canons of Book 1 from 75 until 77 in the version 'Bb' those support our previous assertion on the text similarity. Moreover, the whole title list has same peculiarities as version 'Bb'. There are found the other supplementary canons of the 'Bb' form, i. e.:

- 146/147 -

cc. 70,[43] 74;[44] and also the canons 82-83 attributed to Pope John VIII (872-882)[45] which are combined in recension 'A' (Book 1 c. 79).[46] unfortunately, Book 1 does not finish in BAV Reg. lat. 325, therefore we do not know that the four supplementary canons which are situated at the end of the version 'Bb' without numeration belong or not to it's imagined material. These canons quote letters from Pope Hormisda (514-523) [suppl. can. 1],[47] Pope Nicolas I (858-867),[suppl. can. 2-3][48] and St. Augustine [suppl. can. 4].[49] The end of Book 1 in recension 'A' real differs from the contents of the 'Bb' witnesses, because the 'A' Book 1 cc. 90,[50] [91][51] are not found there, and also the finishing canon attributed to Pope Boniface III (607).[52] However, Book 1 c. 94 of the version 'Bb' nor belongs to the material of recension 'A'.[53]

Conclusion

Based on what has been said above, it seems that the BAV Reg. lat. 325 is most likely an unfinished witness of the version 'Bb'. The compiler of this volume fitted new quires before the title list of the books of Anselm's Collection. These quires supplied

- 147/148 -

the codex with the introducing section of the 'Bb' text tradition which seemed missing for the binder. But this supplement had broken the structure of Book 1, which is interrupted by the celebrating rule of councils and the explaining of the consanguinity degrees. These two particular themes belong to the basic elements of the material which is outside of Anselm's Collection in the version 'Bb'. Moreover, these themes are characteristic examples for the motive of the text development. The knowledge of the consanguinity degrees was important on the ecclesiastical day to day basis, as the rules on councils served the administration of the diocese. The place of the supplement marks the preference of these themes. Therefore, it supports that version 'Bb' has made for a regular even daily basis at some cathedral. This text form testifies again the influence of Ivo of Chartres's canonical work.

We could see some supplementary canons which have been placed among the material of Book 1 of Anselm's Collection. These very probable belong to the early enlarging of the version 'Bb' which had happened by instruction, before the other supplements appeared in this version. During the age of the "Renaissance", the manuscripts of Anselm were again important for the humanist text edition of the Decretum Gratiani which can be recognized through the example of Paris, BN lat. 12450 and the textual-witnesses of recension 'C'.

The BAV Reg. lat. 325 is a very important fragment witness of the text tradition 'Bb' of Anselm's Collection, because that is situated after BAV Barb. lat. 535 and before Paris, BN lat. 12450 in the chronological order.■
