Résumé : CCCC MS 187 contains the translation by Rufinus (c. 345-410) of Eusebius of Caesarea (c. 260-c. 340), Historia ecclesiastica and was written at the end of the eleventh century or start of the twelfth. It has certain later provenance at the cathedral priory of Christ Church, Canterbury and may have been written there, but since it is not in the typical Christ Church script of this time, it may have been imported from elsewhere in England. At some point in the first quarter of the twelfth century CCCC MS 184 was copied from it either at or for Rochester, incorporating a textual omission from CCCC MS 187. The omission in CCCC MS 187 was rectified at some point in the twelfth century, while the Rochester copy's lacuna remained. This suggests that CCCC MS 187 was compared with another exemplar of the work at Canterbury.
