Manuscript Summary:In a binding from the time of Abbot Ulrich Rösch (1463–1491), the manuscript has two parts. The first (pp. 3–166), written probably in southern Germany towards the end of the twelfth century, contains approximately the last third of Peter Lombard’s († 1160) commentary on the Psalms (on Ps. 109–150). The second part (pp. 167–308) was produced in the thirteenth century, perhaps in St. Gall, and contains sermons and treatises, overwhelmingly by Bernard of Clairvaux († 1153). In addition to a few of Bernard’s large liturgical sermons, there appear a few of uncertain authenticity, such as six sermons by Nicholas of Clairvaux († after 1175). The sermons on pp. 167–292 are ordered according to the ecclesiastical calendar (de tempore and de sanctis). A sermon from Bernard’s Sermones de diversis is here applied to the feast of St. Gall (pp. 268–270). On pp. 292–298 can be found the second half of Bernard of Clairvaux’s treatise De gradibus humilitatis et superbiae; a few chapters, especially the first and last, are heavily abridged. The final pages (pp. 298-308) contain further short sermons and treatises, at least part of which can be ascribed to Bernard.(sno)
