Add. et corr. in Peritia 14 (2000), pp. 430-431.

Edition, with discussion of linguistic features.

Examines Latin and Old Irish glosses containing the notion ‘we’ (Lat. apud nos, OIr. linn(i), dún/dunni), with the ultimate aim of establishing the linguistic point of view they were written from, particularly the question of whether the Old Irish glosses are original or mere copies of the Latin.

Compared to the St. Gall Priscian.

Discusses numerals in Old Breton glosses in MS Angers, Bibliothèque municipale 477: 1. ‘thirty’; 2. ‘thirtyfold’; 3. ‘sixty’; some comparisons with Old Irish forms.

MS Vienna 15298.

Edition of the relevant parts of the glossed main text followed by the Latin and vernacular glosses on the same lemma (OIr. glosses from MS Karlsruhe Aug. 167 = Thes. ii pp. 10-13).

Presents some eighty cases where the reading of the MS or facsimile is different from that given in Thes.

Description, history and linguistic significance of MS Würzburg, Universitätsbibliothek, M. p. th. f. 12. Aims in particular at establishing a relative chronology of the phonological processes triggered by the change to initial stress.

Based on an examination of the text of Priscian’s Institutiones Grammaticae in Sankt Gallen, Stiftsbibliothek, MS 904: 1. Corrections and additions to the text of the Old Irish glosses; 2. Some proposals about the translation or the interpretation of the St. Gall glosses; 3. An additional note on OIr. archiunn ‘a-head, further on’.

Examines the abbreviated variants of the Old Irish grammatical gloss (focusing on the literal translation and transposition types), where the point is the Latin grammatical construction not its lexical content.

Compares the Irish glosses on Beda from Carlsruhe (cf. Thes. ii pp. 10-30) and Vienna (cf. Thes. ii pp. 31-37) with the Breton glosses from MS Angers 477.

Suggests that these are represented in Old Irish by two types of construction: I. intí followed by a relative verbal form in the case of Latin restrictive relatives, and II. éside as focus of a cleft sentence in the case of Latin non-restrictive relatives.

dus gl. ilice; *suind [MS sum/sunt] gl. fontes. Includes an excursus on scribal Latinization of Irish words.

Describes and analyses the linguistic material used by R. Thurneysen as source for Handbuch des Altirischen (1909) and the revised Grammar of Old Irish (1946).

Some discussion of the terms samchásc ‘summer Easter’, corgus ‘Lent’, samchorgus ‘summer Lent’, gamchorgus ‘winter Lent’ and minchásc ‘Low Sunday’. Concludes that the St Gall Priscian MS was begun in October 850 and completed in August 851.

A. [Gloses en vieil-irlandais du MS] Laon, Bibl. Municipale, nº 447 [29 previously unpublished glosses].

Studies the Latin and Old Irish glosses on the Virgilian quotations in the St. Gall Priscian, and argues in favour of a direct knowledge of Virgil in early Ireland.

Examines the complete corpus of modal adjective cleft sentences documented in the Old Irish glosses and concludes that the available evidence corroborates Rudolf Thurneysen’s doctrine that the nasalising relative clause was mandatory in this syntactic construction.
