The former abbey church of Saint-Sernin in Toulouse - now known as
the Basilica of Saint-Sernin - was built between about 1080 and
1120, and restored by French architect Viollet-le-Duc during the
nineteenth century. The cartulary of the abbey, which contains
copies of all the charters and records relating to the institution,
was established between 844 and 1200, and transcribed by several
copyists at the end of the twelfth century. It went missing for
several centuries, but was rediscovered in 1885 by C lestin Douais
(1848 1915), a priest and professor of ecclesiastical history at
the Institut Catholique of Toulouse. Originally published in 1887,
Douais' scholarly edition of the Saint-Sernin cartulary was the
first to make these important documents available to the public. It
provides valuable information on the history of the abbey, and
remains an essential resource for palaeographers and medieval
historians.
This is an EXACT reproduction of a book published before 1923. This
IS NOT an OCR'd book with strange characters, introduced
typographical errors, and jumbled words. This book may have
occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor
pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original
artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process. We believe
this work is culturally important, and despite the imperfections,
have elected to bring it back into print as part of our continuing
commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide. We
appreciate your understanding of the imperfections in the
preservation process, and hope you enjoy this valuable book.
