Letters (Books III-IV)

St. Anselm of Canterbury

This book is in Latin.

The letters of Anselm as archbishop of Canterbury, Books III and IV of the Gerberon–Migne order (Patrologia Latina 159, 1853), the letters to and from kings, popes and bishops in the investiture dispute. Latin only, from a fresh OCR of the page scan: no clean transcription exists, so the text still carries many recognition errors, running heads and fragments of the printed apparatus. It is a draft to be corrected against the Migne scan; the first two books are the separate book Letters (Books I-II).

Contents

Source: Letters numbered in sequence within each book (the printed numerals are not always legible); addressee lines, running heads and the printed apparatus are only partly removed, and common recognition slips (ae read as z, and so on) are corrected against the vocabulary of the other imported Latin. Expect errors.
