NotesPost-doctoral researcher: Franz Fischer|Principal investigator: Jane Conroy|Project manager: Anthony Harvey|The St Patrick's Confession hyperstack gathers together high-resolution scans of all extant manuscript testimonies, along with manuscript descriptions and, in the form of a meta-edition, reproductions of the most relevant editions that have been published. These are the canonical version of the critical text, established in the scholarly edition by Ludwig Bieler in 1950; the fundamental edition by Newport J.D. White, published in 1905 – and a unique copy of the same edition with handwritten annotations by Ludwig Bieler; the editio princeps, the first ever printed version of the Confessio, edited by Sir James Ware in 1656; the Bollandist edition in the Acta Sanctorum by Daniel Papebroch, based on MS BM Arras at a time when the two folios that are missing today were still present; the diplomatic transcription of the Book of Armagh by John Gwynn, published by the Royal Irish Academy in 1913; the facsimile print edition of the same manuscript, published by the Irish Manuscripts Commission in 1937.
