Pochi ma buoni : gli autografi di Heiric di Auxerre

The paper aims to reconsider the handwriting of Heiric of Auxerre from a palaeographical point of view as well as in relation to his biography. A close study of ms. Melk, Stiftsbibliothek, 412 shows that two different hands wrote the notes traditionally attributed to him: it appears that only one of these two hands is Heiric’s, as can be seen through a hitherto neglected Tironian note in the calendar. Moreover, such hand is not the one that wrote ms. London, British Library, Harley 2735.
