• Résumé : CCCC MS 438 contains two quite distinct types of text. In the first category is a thirteenth-century copy of the medical treatise De uiribus herbarum attributed variously to Odo of Meung (fl. last third of eleventh century), once considered to be by the Roman poet Aemilius Macer. The rest of the manuscript is taken up with material relating to the history of England and of Canterbury in particular. Thus one finds in this codex thirteenth-century copies of the Gesta regum and Actus pontificum Cantuariensis ecclesiae of Gervase of Canterbury OSB (d. 1210), a fifteenth-century transcript of clerical taxation records and a copy of the bull of 1170 authorising the canonization of Anselm of Canterbury. The contents and other notes strongly support a provenance at the Benedictine cathedral priory of the Holy Trinity, Christ Church, Canterbury.
