• Résumé : CCCC MS 221 consists of two volumes bound together to make a collection of works on orthography by Alcuin, Bede, Cassiodorus, Flavius Caper, and Agroecius. The first part, containing the works by Alcuin and Bede, was probably written at a Breton centre on the Continent in the first half of the tenth century. It has a few marginal notes in Tironian shorthand. The second part, which is probably tenth-century, may be either Continental or English. Because Bishop thought that the first part shares a scribe with Cambridge, Gonville and Caius, MS 144/194, a manuscript with certain medieval provenance at St Augustine's, Canterbury, this manuscript has been associated with St Augustine's as well. However, its complete lack of St Augustine's provenance marks does make that less likely. It was one of the manuscripts which came to Corpus from the collection of Daniel Rogers, who acquired books both in England and on his extensive travels abroad.
