Manuscript Summary:The bulk of this manuscript consists of Latin sermons from the temporal (pp. 9a-21b) and from the sanctoral (pp. 21b-127b). They were copied by a single fourteenth-century scribe on two columns and each sermon is introduced by a rubric. While most of the feasts have a single sermon, the feast of Saint Catherine has seven lections (pp. 89b-108b). The remainder of the manuscript was copied with a variable layout by different hands from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. It contains sermons in Latin as well as in German. The last four pages come from a thirteenth-century breviary copied in a single column (pp. 177-180). A possession note (p. 127b) states that, in the fifteenth century, this codex belonged to a certain Johanna Sumerin de Messkirch: Qui hoc invenit, Iohanne Sumerin de Meskilch reddere debet … The front board of the half-leather Gothic binding has grooves and canals on the front edge; these in fact served to attach the board to the spine. Apparently, the front board, broken vertically along the back, was turned around, repaired, and reutilized.(rou)
