  • Résumé : CCCC MS 303 is an interesting witness to the fate of the Old English language after the Norman Conquest led to the replacement of much of the English elite with French-speaking Normans. Manuscripts of Old English homilies were still produced at least as frequently as they had been in the period before the Conquest; contrary to popular misconception Old English seems to have continued in use. MS 303 is a collection of Old English homilies, many of them by Ælfric of Eynsham (c. 950-c. 1010), copied in the first half of the twelfth century in the south east of England, probably at Rochester. An old foliation shows that several quires have been lost from the start of this manuscript. Parker gave it the number 9 in his collection of homiletic manuscripts.

Notes

Data Source: Parker on the Web

  • Research: It is MS. D in Skeat's Aelfric's Lives (II, p. xiii). He uses it for the Homilies on Ash Wednesday, Mid Lent, All Saints, Auguries, Absalom and Achitophel. Liebermann, Gesetze, calls it Cx and uses it for the excommunication form (p. 438). See Anglia VI 446.
  • Additions: There is an old foliation (of cent. xiv) first clearly visible on f. 2r (p. 3) where it stands as 46. 44 leaves of text have therefore disappeared. The edges of two old leaves survive at the beginning. They carry a large double leaf of vellum ruled for double columns: now folded. On f. 2r is a Parkerian table of contents. The pagination which I use here begins after this. A strip of vellum has been pasted over the top of f. 1r (p. 1), now lifted and foliated as iiir. The title Homiliaram Saxonicarum Lib. 9us is written on this. See Wanley, p. 133
