Notes

In Kat. §3745, Bischoff ascribes this MS to a West-Frankish scriptorium, 'vielleicht unter bretonischem Einfluß'—apparently a reappraisal of Bischoff's earlier view of Orléans 340 as a Breton MS (as reported in PMSB 306 and LF BF853). The MS is assigned a generic attribution to Western Francia also in Pellegrin and Bouhot 2010: 488 and Ganz 2020: 241, with no further mention of any Breton 'influence'.
