Summary
The subject of the present article is the DiscipUna Clericalis of Petrus Alfonsi in
Iceland. The aim of the study is twofold. On the one hand to identify the
translations of the work into Icelandic, and on the other hand to point out
some of the influence this work has exerted on texts composed in Iceland
and elsewhere.
Hauksbók, an early 14th century Icelandic codex, is now preserved in a frag-
mentary state. It is shown here that this codex contains a translation of the
final chapters of the Disciplina Clericalis. A comparison with the Latin original
shows that the text is considerably shortened in the translation.
There are two well-known medieval translations of Disciplina Clericalis into
Icelandic. One is found in transcripts of the lost 14th century codex Ormsbók,
and the other in AM 657 fol., also of the 14th century. The texts are dissimilaf
and no doubt represent two independent translations. Only the first half of
the work is found in these MSS and the texts do not overlap with that of
Hauksbók. It is possible that Hauksbók contained the third medieval translation
into Icelandic.
Accordingly, there are two problems connected with Hauksbók, viz. whe-
