Codex Carolinus is a Gothic-Latin diglot uncial manuscript of the New Testament on parchment, dated to the 6th or 7th century. The Gothic text is designated by siglum ''Car'', the Latin text is designated by siglum ''gue'' (traditional system) or by ''79'' (on the list of Beuron), it represents the Old Latin translation of the New Testament.〔 It is housed in the Herzog August Bibliothek. It is one of very few manuscripts of Wulfilas Gothic Bible.〔(Manuscripts of Gothic Bible ) at the ''Wulfila Project''〕 The manuscript is fragmentary. The four leaves of the codex were used as raw material for the production of another manuscript – ''Codex Guelferbytanus 64 Weissenburgensis''. It is a palimpsest, and its text was reconstructed several times. Franz Anton Knittel was the first to examine it and decipher its text.〔 == Description == The codex has survived to the present day in a very fragmentary condition. It contains only the text of the Epistle to the Romans 11-15 on four parchment leaves (size 26.5 cm by 21.5 cm). The text is written in two parallel columns, 27 lines per column. The left column is in Gothic, the right in Latin. ; Contents : Romans 11:33-12:5; 12:17-13:5; 14:9-20; 15:3-13. The text of the codex is not divided into chapters. The nomina sacra are used both in Gothic and Latin texts (ihm and ihu for "Iesum" and "Iesu"). All the abbreviations are marked with the superscript bar.〔〔(Gothica )〕 Its text has some value in Romans 14:14 for Textual Criticism.〔George W. S. Friedrichsen, ''The Gothic Text of Rom. XIV 14 ( τι κοινον ειναι ), in Cod. Guelferbytanus'', Weissenburg 64, JTS (Clarendon Press, 1937), pp. 245-247.〕 It is a palimpsest, the whole book is known as ''Codex Guelferbytanus 64 Weissenburgensis''. The upper text is in Latin, it contains Isidore of Seville's ''Origines'' and his six letters. The lower text of the codex belongs to several much earlier manuscripts, such as Codex Guelferbytanus A, Codex Guelferbytanus B, and ''Codex Carolinus''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Codex Carolinus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
