Sažetak
The article examines a manuscript fragment written in Beneventan script (MS. 950), acquired at Sotheby’s in 2012 for Dubrovnik Libraries, and provides arguments for its dating to the thirteenth century and a possible Dubrovnik origin. On the basis of script features of the Beneventan manuscripts whose Dubrovnik origin has been confirmed (Missale Ragusinum, Libellus S. Nicolayi), and of the plausible thirteenth century date, along with the manuscript fragments from the thirteenth century kept in the collections in Chantilly and Graz, surveyed are the distinguishing features of Beneventan script used in Dubrovnik in the thirteenth century. Also analysed are the fragments from this period preserved in local collections, and which, in terms of general features, most closely resemble the fragment in the Scientific Library MS. 950 (Dubrovnik Libraries, Franciscan Monastery of the Friars Minor, Scientific Library of Juraj Habdelić in Zagreb, which houses two manuscripts from the Jesuit Monastery in Dubrovnik). Based on the identification of the text of Beneventan fragments from the Franciscan Monastery in Dubrovnik (MS. 463), as well as on the comparison with the features of the Beneventan fragment from the Scientific Library in Dubrovnik (MS. 950), the author comes forward with a thesis that the fragments under study are membra disiecta of the same manuscript of Dubrovnik provenance, which contains the tractates of St. Augustine on the Gospel of John.
