Document Details : Title: Note à propos de la Disquisitio de Mabillon sur les florilèges augustiniens de Bède et de Florus Author(s): DELMULLE, Jérémy Journal: Augustiniana Volume: 69 Issue: 2 Date: 2019 Pages: 333-354 DOI: 10.2143/AUG.69.2.3287291 Abstract : In his Vetera Analecta (1675), the French Benedictine monk Jean Mabillon was the first to distinguish between the two Augustinian florilegia on the Apostle Paul compiled by the Venerable Bede and by Florus of Lyons, and to draw attention to two manuscripts from Bede’s unpublished Collectio in Apostolum. By putting this discovery in its historical context and in relation to Mabillon’s works and travels in the 1670s, this article shows that the two manuscripts described by Mabillon were two manuscripts from the Abbey of Saint-Bertin (at Saint-Omer), one of which is now lost. From the indications given by Mabillon and other medieval and modern sources, it is possible to reconstruct the content and understand the textual value of this lost Carolingian manuscript. |
