Uncial 0121b - History

History

Currently it is dated by the INTF to the 10th century.

The manuscript came from Italy. It once belonged to H. van der Merk. In 1712 it was in Hague.

The manuscript once belonged to Conrad von Uffenbach (hence name Fragmentum Uffenbachianum), then to J. C. Wolf, and after his death in 1739 to the Public Library of Hamburg. It was very imperfectly described by Maius, Wettstein, Griesbach, and Bengel. Tregelles collated its text twice. Constantin von Tischendorf edited its text in 1855 (with 5 errors) and in 1861 corrected 5 errors.

The codex now is located in the University of Hamburg (Cod. 50), in Hamburg.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    I feel as tall as you.
    Ellis Meredith, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 14, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    America is the only nation in history which, miraculously, has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization.
    Attributed to Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)

    You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
    Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
