General Notes (Internal) completed by Elisabeth Böttcher

Note

“Historia” does not clearly stand out as an independent text from the “Gesta Romanorum” (see Roth 2004, p.60).

The scribe jumps back and forth between fol.103rb and fol. 104v (see Roth 2004, p.60).

Scribe: full signature: Volmarus Luczelstein, rector ecclesie in Owenheim (see Roth 2004, p.60).
