Notes from Snow 197, no. 254: "Of the 22 Marian miracles in codex Rivipullensis 193, folios 27v-48r, dating from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, 21 also appear in the CSM. While B. admits that this MS is no direct source of Alfonso's accounts of the miracles, there are still enough similarities, especially in the seven dealing with Rocamadour, to indicate a not-too-remote, common Latin source. In the order of their appearance, the Latin analogues B. prints from the Ripoll MS correspond to the CSM as follows: 231, 4, 138, 15, 145, 2, 141, 68, 111, 132, 405, 134, 149 (Baraut's 14 does not appear in the CSM), 128, and the Rocamadour series - 159, 153, 157, 147, 57, 175, and 158. Nicely done and provocative. Further study of this MS is required." |
