Reader's Annotations, In St. Gregory of Nazianzus's 'Eight Orations'
View through Europeana Collections
St. Gregory of Nazianzus (c.325-389) wrote three
types of work: poetical (including epigrams, epitaphs, and
epistles), prose epistles, and orations. Gregory is widely
acknowledged to be one of the finest of all Christian orators. His
orations were collected in various combinations, and were fairly
commonly found in monastic libraries. This manuscript has ownership
inscriptions of the Cistercian Abbey of Byland, in Yorkshire.
Various forms of marginal annotation testify to the fact that the
text was studied by early medieval readers. In the outer margin of
this page is a variant reading within a wavy line; the letters 'DM'
twice (an abbreviation of 'Dignum Memoria': worthy of memory); and
a monogram of the letters 'NOTA' ('Take note!')
once.
