Lukas J. Dorfbauer
In the present article two parchment leaves preserved at OberÃ¶sterreichischeLandesbibliothek in Linz (Ms. 642 and 644) are identified as remnants of a copy thehomiletic collection De quattuor virtutibus caritatis written Regensburg first third ofthe 9th century under bishop Baturich. It is demonstrated that Baturich himself likely to haveprocured bookâs exemplar from Fulda. Whereas many copies coll. IV virt. car. survivefrom high later middle ages, we currently know only three Carolingian witnesses(the book question; Fulda short fragment which now preservedat Marburg; mentioned several old lists Lorsch), they all seem have beenclosely related. As for structure car., it argued distinction betweena core consisting texts nr. 1â24 supplement 25â28, wasintroduced collectionâs scholarly description by Raymond Ãtaix, should be abandoned.
