Abstract

The Lectionarium Placentinum is contained in four parchment manuscripts, Piacenza, Biblioteca Capitolare, codices 60-63, dated to the second half of the twelfth century and used in the medieval liturgy in Piacenza. The lectionary is divided in two parts, the Temporale and the Sanctorale. Included in codices 60 and 61, the Temporale contains the lessons for the divine office for all the christological feasts and the sundays of the liturgical year; the pars hiemalis in codex 61 covers the period from Advent to Easter, the pars aestiva in codex 60 the period from Easter sunday and the remaining part of the year. The edition of the Temporale is divided in two volumes, the first of which contains the introduction to the lectionary and the edition of codex 61, while the second contains the edition of codex 60 and the inventory of both codices as well as indices and bibliography.
