Manuscript Summary: This is the first part of a six-volume copy of Gregory’s Moralia in Iob (Min. 50-55), containing Books 1-5; it is listed in the Allerheiligen Abbey register of books from about 1100 (Min. 17, f. 306v). It is written in a single column and is mostly undecorated except for the incipit page (f. 1r) and an initial with scroll ornamentation (f. 1v). On f. 129sermo by Odo of Cluny. Discolorations and signs of wear on the first (f. 1r) and last (f. 132v) page suggest that the manuscript remained unbound until the 15th century when, like many others, it received a leather binding with metal bosses and two clasps. Two leaves from Min. 110 (2nd half of the 12th century) were used as pastedowns. (spe)
