Winter is departing, and new manuscript pages are blossoming at Capitularia. This time, we offer codices of southern German origin, most containing a copy of the Capitulare monasticum (BK 170):
Additionally we have completed our transcription of the capitularies in the manuscripts Heiligenkreuz, Stiftsbibliothek, 217 and Munich, Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Lat. 3853. Together with Paris, Bibliothèque nationale de France, Lat. 3878, these manuscripts represent the so-called Collectio Augustana, a vast collection of ecclesiastical and secular law, compiled in southern Germany (probably in Alemannia) during the 10th century (cf. Kaschke 2025). This collection offers the sole copies of the first four chapters of BK 131, a sequence of single chapters edited by Alfred Boretius with the artificial title Capitula de Iudaeis, containing regulations for the Jewish population within the Frankish empire.
