The St Gall Psalter gloss: people and places across Carolingian Europe (11,000 words)

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

The St Gall Psalter gloss, a ninth-century corpus of annotations on the Psalms, left its mark on Carolingian, Ottonian-Salian, Anglo-Saxon, and early printed book culture. Copied in manuscripts from a wide geographical area stretching across Austria, Switzerland, and southern Germany, the corpus appeared in luxury psalters in Bavaria by the eleventh century. Despite having traction, very little is known about its early transmission. This paper focuses on the people and places connected with the corpus.
