Tracing Origins and Reassembling Fragments

Material from St. Gallen, Stiftsbibliothek, Cod. Sang. 1396.1-32

Abstract

The recent publication on e-codices of the thirty-two fascicles comprising Cod. Sang. 1396 provides an opportunity to address certain questions relating to the long history of the use and reuse of a few selected fragments from this large collection. Additionally, the gradual availability online of the eight volumes of fragments compiled by Ildefons von Arx and Johann Nepomuk Hauntinger enables these volumes to be cross-referenced.
