Heriger of Lobbes and the Freising Florilegium (Lateinische Sprache Und Literatur Des Mittelalters,)

The Freising Florilegium is a collection of excerpts from Persius, Juvenal, Lucan, Claudian, Tibullus, Martial and Horace preserved in an eleventh-century manuscript from Freising, today CLM 6292 in the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Munich. This florilegium is studied to determine where, when and for what purpose it was compiled. A complete edition is followed by a discussion of the place of the excerpts in the transmission of each of the works. The collection appears to be related to a florilegium compiled and used by Abbot Heriger of Lobbes.
